Watched the ground being prepared today, during a meeting at the MCG. Looks great, just very cold.

Wasn't that year also the last time we did the double over them in a H&A* season too?

*I know we beat them twice in 2011, but that included a final, not H&A.

gotta love that kind of optimism.
My head tells me we are going to get smashed.
My heart tells me that when we get smashed I will be all broken and sad and curled up and consumed with a kind of numb sobbing grief.
My wife tells me to get a frickin life.

Tell him his job is to cause harm at the contest and make a name for himself by being the first international player ever to get reported multiple times in his first and only game of AFL football.
He will be on ABC, CNN, Fox, The Late Show, The early show, The morning show.

Over to you, Match Committee

And to all TCers please wish BS a belated birthday for 1 august - no not henry the horse!!!!

To beat the filth and the injectors in the same year is a successful season in my eyes :razz:

Sam Hay, the umpire who didn't give Plowman a free kick when Zorko punched him in the guts and was subsequently dropped, is umpiring tomorrow's game. AFL trolling.

Exactly! Hope Bolton & staff have had them totally pumped for this game all week. It could be a famous victory for us if we absolutely dig deep & just guts out a 1 goal win with the list we have. Why not.

Hope they're primed for this. Will be gutted if we put in another showing like the last 2 weeks.

come on Blues

Happy birthday to you BS!
It is match day and I feel a little ill thinking of the game.
I dont know if we are a chance to hold our heads up or get completely smacked around. No idea how this will go. Id love it if we could stay close for much of the game. The game style is of course frustrating for now but I view it as temporary as do many others. It is the best we could do for now and it will pay off next year. It is hard to watch us lose often, of course it is but I try to focus on how exciting next year will be with ed curnow asos maybe rowe too back fit...samo with a pre season crippa too and
Of course the new kids we will get
I see us making the 8 in 2018.
If we happen to pull off a miracle today
OMG what a bonus. :eek: :yikes: :fight:
