And for us to lose to Hawthorn.
But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

Now that's a grudge.

The AFL put up that Jeff White free in their last two minutes series a few weeks ago. Still ridiculous.

Yeah I saw that. It hasn’t aged well. It was soft then and it looks even worse now.

We doubled their score in 54! All of my grudges were washed away that day.... bloody Norm Smith. (I wasnt born but I still celebrated it). Actually my mum was there, and I took her to 2016 so she's like Dermott 2x day, 1x night ...

Re: The unofficial 2019 "Where is T&T?" who to root for thread
Would be nice if Collingwood also lost one as then it makes it real interesting.
GWS - Adelaide, Melbourne, Saints
Saints - West Coast, GWS
Collingwood - Gold Coast, Port
We need to win our two and then see what happens.

I reckon it's going to come down to Saints beating GWS if we win remaining games. I've got bad memories of an out of contention Hawks beating us up one year in the last round at Docklands (rocket years?).....

Port are going to be playing for top spot, a loss might relegate them to 3rd so they will be going hard for the win.
Saints could easily lose both.
We need to be about +80 in our last 2 games for % to even come into play

Our percentage is probably only relevant to GWS who are only 2.5% ahead of us.

Was that the Wayde Skipper bump? Garbage then, garbage now (not big Skip, the call).

Re: The unofficial 2019 "Where is T&T?" who to root for thread
Assuming we win both our games, we essentially need 1 of the following to happen:
-Collingwood to lose 1 more game. (Suns, Power)
-The saints to lose both their games. (Eagles, Giants)
-GWS to lose 2 of their last 3 games. (Crows, Dees, Saints)
If the saints win one more, they'll likely finish above us due to %.
If the Pies win both games they'll finish half a game ahead of us.
If the giants win 2 of 3 we could get them on % but it'll likely be dam close
So we need to root hard for the Suns, Power, Eagles, Crows and Dees.

Just to add a indirect root to the mix. We kind of want the cats to beat the tigers and the lions to win out. This will put more pressure on Port to beat collingwood in the final round to maintain top spot.

High possibility of it happening, too.
Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

If you look at what SHOULD happen. We will play finals. But this is 2020. And after all this we'll probably drop one to hawks or freo anyway.

Well, that is also a distinct possibility!
