Yep.
If the Swans end up playing the Bullies at ANZ I hope Caleb Daniel isn't picked. He'll fall into one of the holes on the ANZ stadium ground and won't be able to climb back out!!!
I'd rather play a team that has played every week, like us. Adelaide off back-to-back Perth trips (which will be off back-to-back Vic trips) would be better.DirtyDogTiger said:
Another stat from Glen Luff was that only 4 of 30 semi-final winners have made the grand final since 2000, but all 4 have gone on to win the flag.
The March to the Grand Final - 2015
Long way to go before we make the big one, but I thought we needed a thread for the possible journey.
Week 1: Kangaroos
Week 2: Sydney or Freo
Week 3: Hawthorn or West Coast
Grand Final: Freo / WC / Haw / Syd
The travel factor this year could see us having back to back finals in Perth, or a Sydney/Perth double.
I'd think our most likely run would be: Kangas, Sydney, Hawthorn, and then our bunnies Freo in October.

So assuming no changes to Sunday's team, there are 7 new face in the 2015 elimination final compared to 2013. No Morris, Petterd, Aaron Edwards, King, Jackson, Conca, Tuck. Overall looks a stronger team: their replacements have them covered

HB Ricky Petterd, Troy Chaplin, Chris Newman
C Shaun Grigg, Trent Cotchin, Daniel Jackson
HF Nick Vlastuin, Aaron Edwards, Jake King

And 6 changes from last year's team - no Morris, Conca, Gordon, Griffiths, Foley, Petterd
Again team generally looks stronger though a fit Conca ad Griffiths would have claims.

Good one LOTO
If we get the grand final: we could have the easy route
North - MCG
Swans - ANZ (if they lose to freo)
Hawks - MCG (if they beat WCE)
Freo - MCG. (If they get there).
I'm not saying the opponents are easy, but we've beaten them all this year.
But three out of four on the MCG doesn't hurt.

I don't reckon there'll be any at the end of the day.
Hardwick would come under heavy scrutiny but I think the club will honour the last year of his contract.
Maturity is a word bandied around but we won't know for sure till Sunday.
For the fans ... a loss would be disastrous.
I can't believe how much hate and negativity has been labelled at the RFC this week.
Sure I can cop the simple fact that we need to peform and win a final, our first in over a decade. It's not rocket science.
But all this pure jealousy and clutching at straws re tunnelling where there are bigger stories such as
- Western Bulldogs
- Adelaide after the tragedy this year
- Player depression
- Substance abuse
- Culture at the GC

I hope you @#$@%@#%@ morons come Sunday choke on your words.
