Yep thats the one they are playing the scum (Adelaide Crows) in the first week of the finals.

Maybe so but its a common nickname for teams accross Australia.

The Pope was today knocked down at the start of Christmas mass by a woman who hopped over the barriers. The woman was said to be, "Mentally unstable."

Which is probably why she went unnoticed among a crowd of Christians.

Good win by the Cats over a fast finishing Bulldogs outfit gives us a vital 2 week break, which will help us get a few injured players fully right... :tup:

I have an interesting perspective over recent coaching appointments, and those who missed out. Many years ago, I taught both Damien Harwick (who got the Richmond job) and Darren Crocker (who missed out on the North position)

Damien was an arrogant, unpleasant boy, who played a very hard brand of football.

Darren was an equally good footballer, but one of nature's gentlemen...

Well, the Doggies easily accounted for Brisbane, and will play St Kilda next week. I would tip the Saints...

Collingwood had a narrow win over Adelaide, and will play Geelong next week. Go Cats!

I'm still tipping a Saints vs Cats Grand Final...

My hatred for the cows outweighs my hatred for collingwood always so therefor as much as it makes me sick to cheer collingwood i forgot about it this week. Anyway the utter bullshit going around the local media about the cows winning the flag made the decision easier. :|~

Not that it's Aussie rules, but the Melboune Storm just won its 2nd Rugby Leage Grand Final in 4 consecutive appearances over 4 years...

We take a NSW game, and trounce them convincingly...

Melbourne rules! :cheers:
