I've softened a bit on the Swannies, admired what they did this year after 0-6 start. Honestly thought they were in the best shape out of the 8 finalists going into week 1.

On the Cats, great players are Selwood and Danger but Jesus they get a dream run with the Umps, horrible to watch.

Don't want Tippett at Carlton, has always been overrated imo.

I had a bit of a chuckle at this, but then I thought about it and remembered Hardwick having a whinge about it after the Richmond game at kardinia. Looking at the official AFL stats for the season, there is a kind of truth to it. The Cats have received the most free kicks of any side this season with 491. This is balanced out however by the fact that we've also given away the most of any side - 510. Leaving us a negative differential for the season. So you are kind of half- right. :glasses-cool:
Some interesting stats. About half the sides in positive free kick differential and half in negative.

At the start of the year I tipped the cats to win the GF, but I hope the crows get up tonight

Although I wouldn't mind the Crows winning either. Always been a fan of Betts and it would be hilarious to see the Crows get up just as Danger jumped ship.
Yeah I've always liked the Crows too.

I do wonder if last night was Richmond's GF. First appearance in 32 years. A few of their players were crying after the siren.
