If we do finish 9th and end up making the finals, our board should make a call and forfeit the game.

Its insulting to us as a club to accept a condecending gesture from the AFL.

I know we wont do it but we should.

Get there on your own merits or dont bother at all.

It may be a good idea to forfeit if Brock McClain is out for the finals and we get the tiggies

Until each team plays each other the same number of times, the AFL, as a fair dinkum competition, cannot be taken seriously.

He (Mr Swann) said the honour and pride associated with the club's traditional navy blue jumper was priceless.

For the longest time it wouldn't have bothered me in the slightest to play finals at the Bombers expense.

Right now though I don't think we deserve to play finals and I don't want us too.

I'm sure this will pass though if we do happen to get there

We are on our way back...

Playing finals this year wouldn't feel the same as making them on your own accord but I think we'd be stupid to give up the opportunity to give some of our young players a chance to experience finals football. If anything give them a taste of what can be achieved in future with hard work and an endeavour to achieve great things as a team.

Carlton v Richmond elimination final.

The New Ninth v The True Ninth.

Would not matter a stuff.

The joint would be packed and we'd up to our eyeballs in it.

Take what's on offer and do what u can.

I hope Essendon* folds.

We'll be ok. They'll bring in Laidlaw and Gartlett to go with Yarren.

I dont care how we get in there, as long as we get in there. If its at Essendons expense so much better. The fact that it would tick off Richmond supporters who have come ninth for years with no reward is icing on the cake.

If we play, we´ll go at it with everything.
It won´t be enough but we´ll be trying.
I´ll take it.

Don't worry we will make sure we stuff any chance of getting the spot anyway..

Now that I've calmed down a bit I've warmed somewhat to playing in September for 2 reasons:

1) It would be good experience for youngsters like Menz, Graham and co, especially if playing Rich or Coll
2) We're there and @#$%&! Essendon* aren't!

That said, if Norf earn the right to jump over us, they're welcome to the spot and good luck to them.

Collingwood will play dead and let North in.

Then so be it. Neither result will have me losing sleep.

I wish there was a like button on here! Play the rookies & let them tank themselves

It actually looks like Norf will get in and I couldn't give a flower.

The care factor for us playing or not is minute - the team [except Simmo] lost any chance of earning the right to play in September by playing like a bunch of wankers on Saturday night.

I'm still pissed off, so the anger hasn't subsided.
