Has the poster-Karma finally turned? Dayne Beams hitting it twice in the last half of the last quarter and we sneak into 3rd by a few points.
Let's hope so.

I thought the worm turned against geelong in the last quarter when they hit the post I made the comment that the worm might have turned our way we then fan away with it a little.
4 times in first Q wasnt it? Against collingwood early in year.. i think missing alot early can lose ya the game also.
Have a look at the date of the post, I was talking about the first time we played Geelong, when we lost by a couple of points and hit the post twice in the last quarter.

We were a bit better with posters this week - but the kicking at goal from Higgins and Murphy has been a little frustrating of late - hopefully they have got it out of their system for the finals.
It'd be great if they bought in a rule that if it hits the post and goes goalside it's a goal, if it goes behind it's a point and if it bounces back it's play on.
I really like that rule from the preseason comp.
They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

So, you're level when the final siren goes & are taking a shot from 40 metres out to win the Grand Final.
You have 21 metres to aim at; 7, 7 & 7.
All you need is a point to win!
In you come, hit it sweetly, it starts veering offline & cannons into the goal post only to bounce back into the field of play!
