Downside: Lose all Tassie games, and due to one Covid case in the crowd, they are locked out of Victoria until 2023.
Upside: Most of the team gain a good understanding of Tasmanian cool climate wines and Huon smoked salmon. They also toughen up next Tassie winter, as they have to have live in tents due to the housing shortage down there.
The fight is here; I need ammunition, not a ride.

Played one more game for premiership points, in the worst pandemic in centuries. An achievement in itself.
When the stories are told of all the Dogs staff at various levels making huge sacrifices to keep this season going, it will make good reading.

Have had our third 100+ point win for the season.

Has a team ever been top of the ladder 3 weeks before finals, and then bundled out in week 1? That would be pretty unique, I guess.
Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

What I'd love to see :
Biggest contested possession differential in a final. We need to get fierce at the source!
