    Homebush with all it's faults is still a greater advantage than any interstate venue.

    V Essendon at Homebush
    V Carlton at Docklands

    I know which I prefer.

    Any result that has that pathetic excuse for a football club called St Kilda missing the finals, I am there front and centre as head cheerleader.

    On that basis, I'm all for a North win, and by lots, followed by a Carlton win.

    Norf is just the lesser of 2 evils and it also suits our home final aspirations. That's all.

    Make the most of it kanga - it won't last.
    He reminds him of the guys, close-set, slow, and never rattled, who were play-makers on the team. (John Updike, seeing Josh Kennedy in a crystal ball)

    I guess "hoping they beat a finals rival" is the closest thing to love the Roos can expect, eh?
    Officially on the Reid and Sumner bandwagon!

    That's what happens when you synchronise your brains staring at the gatorade stand simultaneously.
