Round 15-The other games.

I'm happy for Collingwood to keep losing. Nothing would make me happier than taking their spot in the 8. ;D
 
That Geelong v Port game was bloody as boring as our game up until the last quarter with Port adopting the same game plan as we did down there but not being able to keep it up for the entire game. Tredrea....gee is just a shadow of himself right now and must be carrying a injury. But why play if you cant contribute.
 
I can't believe it.

The Shockers have beaten the Scum at the G and we're out of the 8.

Imagine if this was Round 22.

Melthouse will have a lot more slamming to do tonight.
 
For some reason Dockers play well against pies.It won't be long before Dockers become Shockers again.
 
As much as I enjoy Colingwood losing, as they are my most hated team, they have got a fairly easy run home, so they will probably pick themselves up enough to get into the final eight....while we miss out  again. Though I can only hope that this is the beginning of a major slide for them and they will be the ones to miss out.

sorry rosy, i disagree. taking bias aside, collingwoods loss today was devastating for richmond's chances. with hawthorn, essendon, carlton and kangaroos to come, collingwood are certainties to make the finals. we needed them to win today as freo and geelong are our main rivals. freo's run home is resonable. they're a good chance to win 12 from here. we really need melbourne to knock them off over there next week and for us to improve our %

We have our own destiny in our hands and should not be worried about other teams. For those worried about other teams loosing for us to get in finals contention - wake bloody up. The football we played on Friday night just goes to show we should not be a finals contender this year. Crap football and a crap game plan. When we get our act together and start winning such important football games, then and only then will we be thought as genuine finals contenders instead of making up the numbers.

Freo will stuff up more than win in the last 7 weeks. I hope we can take the Pies spot in the 8 they way they are playing. They are only 1 game and % ahead and cant seem to win at the moment.

No need to be sorry Ian.  You're welcome to disagree.  :hihi

I can't be bothered plotting another teams fortunes.  We can't even get it right for our own team.  Did you think we'd beat Adelaide?  Did you think Hawks would flog us?  Most people thought Collingwood would account for us easily.  Most would have thought they'd beat Freo. ;)

Only time will tell how things pan out and in the meantime I'll still take great pleasure in Collingwood losing.  Long may it continue. :clap
