If anyone is in real danger of going out in straight sets, a la us in '94, I'd put my money on Geelong.

Hawthorn can beat them. They will eventually. Might not be this week but it will be very soon. If the Hawks do get over the Cats that would filter Geelong into an awkward match up against the Swans or Saints. Just a tricky assignment, having said that I'd much rather be on that side of the draw than the one that runs through Perth.


Funnily enough, I would say it would be Hawthorn who are in the "straight sets" danger.

Ewwww!

Hawthorn are just behind Collingwood in order of who in the top four I want to see bow out in straight sets.

I think they secretly love us over on BomberBlitz.

If they do win they will probably think it makes up for 99.

Of course they are a chance, but I think its 70-30 in our favour (though 99 was more like 90-10 against us and we got up).

A win might inspire me to open an account at ballbagblitz.
A flogging would make for some good fishing :smoking:

In '99 those clowns were flag favourites (which we're not) and they had already beaten North twice that year. Knocking them out probably saved us seeing them go back-to-back. We did North a favour. 1999 and 2011 don't compare.
