Based on the pattern of the last 6 years we should have realised we were never going to make the Grand Final in an odd year.

Breakfast Point (where they live) and the RAS Showgrounds (where they train and play) are NOT in "western Sydney".
You would do well to remember that when arguing a point that the AFL want (need) a team in Western Sydney.
The "Western Sydney" that you and the AFL dream about, is a lot further than 12ks from the GPO.
They aren't tapping into the "western Sydney" market at all, just the inner-west.
Aside from that, footy is over for the year.
I couldn't give a toss who wins or loses.
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.
I wouldn't get too hung up on names. By that logic "Sydney" Swans and the "Greater Western Sydney" Giants actually share western Sydney.
The Giants also represent Canberra.
A more geographically correct name might be "All NSW and ACT west of Anzac bridge" Giants, but it doesn't have the same ring to it.
West of Anzac bridge is Balmain which isn't Western Sydney
As much as we already beat them in Adelaide I can't see that we would have beaten the crows if we made it through.
They are on fire.
If only Geelong had played like this last week. Teams seems to rev themselves up for matches against us.
It's also possible that the Crows are better than us.
They are bashing up Geelong especially Danger. Betts and Cameron playing like Sam Kerr .
You are right, that is possible (and incredibly hard to prove or refute).
Close season, though. Four teams left and we beat them all during the regular season. Any dog on its day had the opportunity to be successful this year - with the opposite equally true also.

If anyone thinks Balmain is classed as western Sydney and part of the target for Gws they need a hat with flaps on it.
