    We'll miss Buddy, because he always plays well against NM. But given our injury situation, I think we are better suited to beat North with speed and pressure rather than height.

    Yep, Boomer just said in his presser:

    I hope Buddy isn't playing next week .

    He was naturally excited post win but it was a rather insensitive comment.

    I guess you could say it was insensitive but I think everyone will take it pretty innocently.

    I am more confident we can beat North than Richmond with a finals win under their belt. If they got through today, they would have been confident and having already beaten us this season, a real danger. It was strange though, I was barracking for them all day, I can't stand North!

    I was cheering for North all game. I was really worried if we had to come up against the Tigers. They always seem to get under our skin. It`s gunna be another classic game next week.

    Those behinds will haunt me forever.
    Good on Joey Kennedy.
    Sad for Reid.
    Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.
    Blessed are the cracked for they are the ones who let in the light.

    High Tackle!? Heeney was nearly Snapped like Gary Rohan. Disgrace of a call. Seems to me to have been the exact reason for the rule.

    and then skip to 7.12

    Just watched that, having missed that part of the coverage(at work), and yes, that was a disgusting decision. It seems the umpires were, at that early stage at least, hell bent on giving any 50/50's to the Dockers. The commentators, at the 7:12 mark were saying it could have gone either way....well the obvious answer to that is; We were playing in Perth! Nuff said.....

    Yeah, it didnt get any media playback through the week due to the Norf/Tugs umpire blunder, but would have been the story of the finals pre GF if he snapped his leg. Meanwhile he hobbled off and battled out the game with padding on his shin.
