Robert Heatley Stand / Re: Blues v Swans semi final - pre game thead
Heard Darcy this morning completely dismiss any chance of us winning, already I feel confident of an upset!!  Eddie rightly pointed out that the Swans have injury worries and that on that ground Mick has a good record and would be better for us.

Need to wait and see who is available before getting a feel for the game.  Mick doesn't usually make a lot of changes once he has a settled side.

D'Arsey is not exactly in the brain surgeon category fortunately so his opinion is worth Jack. I would have like Eddie to bag MM to really fire him up - but I guess Eddie's a bit too cagey for that, besides he may be looking to poach him for 2014.  ;D

Bells kicking wasn't great at all but he found the ball when others couldn't and moved fast for a big kid in the second half. Needs work but is what we need.

It's why, for all the frustration at times, players like Bell and Robbo are so important in tough finals.

We learnt how important Waite and Betts are too and why I'd be happy to pay the latter good $$$$

Dead right Jim. Eddie's easily the most important of the amigos IMO. I'm knocked out too that Waite is back in the room - I'd pretty much given up on him but its great to see him firing - I'd almost forgotten how good he can be.

Gibbs was masssive in that game. 18 contested possessions and 12 clearances.

Belongs in the Midfield.....permenantly

Its not like we haven't been saying that for the past 5-6 years though, maybe he will become the player we always thought he would if he stays there.

maybe we'll be the team we want to be if we play at least 3 1/2 quarters.

I don't think we are fit enough yet to play MM's way for the full 4Q. That's why we maybe have to cruise a bit for up to a quarter. I'm looking forward to seeing what eventuates re. our fitness coach replacement and how we might improve our match performances next year.

Bell sort of redeemed himself later in the game but I thought he was very ordinary earlier on. He's slow of mind in particular IMO - just not yet in tune with the pace of the game at this level, and that caused a couple of very embarrassing incidents. Did look better though as time went on - we probably need to get more senior footy into him and the finals will help him enormously.

Only just got home from the game. Was surrounded by Tiger ferals and they were really up and about until half time - gee these delusionals are quite sickening. As the game ebbed away from them though you could hear their balloon deflating - it was absolutely palpable - they knew they were heading for the slaughter - they're bloody conditioned to it. All I could think of was suck sh1te KB!  ;D

Great fighting effort by the boys and MM!

So the day is here!. Can't wait to hop in the car and head to the "g". Heart says we can win, head says rich have been the better side all year and finals have a way of sorting out the men from the boys. Here's hoping the head doesn't no s#*t. Finally here's hoping for a late change, we are definitely 1 defender short atm

I woke up feeling very good about this one! We can definitely get across the line IMO!

Blah-Blah Bar / Re: Federal Election 2013
There were some very strange dudes handing out how-to-vote papers when I voted early on - made me think what weirdos I might be voting for!  :))  O:-)
