    So despite finishing 5th last year and playing credibly against the Dogs in the SF, we're not even a finals contender this year? Yet Adelaide are? Mind you, they've also omitted the Saints who, despite their slow start to the year, only an idiot would count out as finals contenders at this stage.
    I got a laugh from this post in retrospect, too. The Crows and Dees turned out to be a big finals threat.

    It's truly embarrassing...

    What do they know??

    Why would you bring in Dre Everitt this late in the season??
    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.

    12.5 H&A wins
    1 Final Win.
