Best case scenario for Collingwood is he misses one final, with the pre finals bye if they win week one they get another week off. There's the 6 weeks.

It's a bit like taking Butters out of our side.
They've got a problem first week of finals.
Melbourne at the MCG they don't win.
At the risk of tempting fate Collingwood are now the side we want in the 1st final.
Melbourne are the best team on paper imo, but I really don't rate the top 4 as anything startling tbh.
The comp is tight because it's weak.

Melbourne we’re always my favourite to win, just doing what they need to do, with Oliver back they will push hard, Pies at the G week 1 is my preference, I think they’re gettable.
I’m rationalising our shittness with optimism that we don’t want to show the finals team our true finals game plan in advance

Blow the siren and give North the win now!
Thinking about how to make footy enjoyable again for those us afflicted with wanting to see our "interstate" teams compete on a level playing field.
Take the comp to 20 teams (Tas + WA3/SA3/NT/ACT whichever makes most sense. Two leagues 10 teams each play each other twice - 18 games. Top 5 in each league play a "Super league" finals series over, say, 6 weeks.
The two 10 team leagues could be the VFL and "The Rest" (I concede it might need a better name). That way, for most of the season we don't have to put up with the crap that's dished out from the league, its officials, its media and its commentators. You could even sell the tv rights to the two minor leagues separately given they appeal to different audiences.

Could you imagine the Vic club’s complaining about the rest conference being weaker and not fair

Are lolnorf kicking with the assistance of a gale in this quarter?
Yeah there'd be an Eddie-led rebellion to ensure that the Super League finals was 8 Victorians and 2 Others

And “interstate” teams having to travel every second week and vfl teams staying home for the whole season.
Melbourne tanking? No-one wants to finish third?
Given that that's basically the way it works now I figured that could be sorted.

Tuning into this game just to see north inevitably blow the lead and lose.
Ted with 7 and a jumper with nary a mark on was enough for me. I am already at max torment.
And whose idea was it to make God a **** Victorian?

Bontempelli has been having a better year than Daicos anyway.

Keep this up for another hour and a half and lolnorf might save our top two spot. Certainly didn't have that on my 2023 bingo card.
Keep it up Norf, all you're doing right now is ruining the first round pick you traded in.
