Game Day Around The Grounds Rounds 21 - 24 Power beat Freo. Blues make finals. Thank you Port!

How does this board feel about the fact that if Collingwood had scored 1 more point in either of their draws, they'd be playing finals? Bit of bad luck eh?

I like the fact that it was the draw between Collingwood and Fremantle that cost them both a finals spot.

LOL if it was raining female movie stars, both teams would catch Shrek's missus.

Tragic really

I really do feel for them, I guess they got good draft picks to look forward to….

There's a short term downside to Collingwood's absence - fans going to the MCG in September will be forced to consume only pasties and sausage rolls, because there won't be any Pies there.

Phil with a bit of luck the other way they could easily have finished 3rd last … they’ve had their share and everyone else’s share of good luck …

 

[Faz 2000]

This might be as lame and uninspiring a way to make finals as possible.

Hopefully a fortnight of soul-searching and rehab and we shock the world (and the Brions).

In other breaking news, the Tigers will be known as the Richmond Possums next season, due to the fact that they keep playing dead at home, and they're continually getting killed on the road.

Incredible to think that the Hawks could've finished 2nd on the ladder had they not choked in the last 40 seconds of that Port Adelaide match.

Incredible effort by Sam Mitchell... Should be coach of the year in my opinion.

Don't forget that after round 7, they were 1-6. They're bloody dangerous right now, and I won't be sorry to see the back of them.

 

[What else we can do]

Port will win the flag.

Whoever they play from now on will have every Carlton supporter behind them.

We drag you into finals this year, hand over Dan Houston to give to give you a chance of winning one next year.

Deal is you need to take Ken off our hands the year after.

Executive Assistant to the Deputy Head of Reserves Coaching…?

Petracca wants to leave Melbourne!!!!

How do make philreich laugh on Monday morning? Tell him a joke on Friday night? .

 

[Just Kreuzing]

We should also really acknowledge Geelong a little as well as Port yeah….

By them smashing the Eagles it basically took away an option for Port to consider resting players and kept them honest playing Freo!

 

[philreich]

I take back everything I have ever said about Port.

I'm going straight to Bunnings tomorrow to buy some celebratory tarps!!!

Dude - we need tarps these days about as much as a Collingwood fan needs a toothbrush .

About as much as you (and I) need to attend a Dad Joke seminar...

Carn, really.

Emotions were high due to that St Kilda loss, thanks for helping us out and good luck for the finals
