It's gonna be tough over in Melbourne against the Cats. Anyone think they can go all the way? I see the Dockers are already talking about hosting the NAB Cup final in Perth if they overcome the Cats on Saturday night.
My tip is an Adelaide vs Geelong final in Adelaide. Would love to be proven wrong by the Dockers though. Could the Dockers attract a sellout crowd for pre season cup final at Subi? What a great start to the season that would be for the club. |

Same inferiority complex perhaps?  |

Yeah right?! Related to the Port Powder Puffs?! No chance!
You blokes have shown that this eason you will bully the weak teams & get bounced by the strong ones. To which group the boys from the port of Fremantle will belong is up to them as they should be top 4 with the talent they have on hand.
Should beat the Cats this week as they seem to have missed their chance (they were my tip for the flag pre-season last year). Well done Nick Davis.
Can't see either grand finalist challenging this year. Maybe the Swans will make the 8.
If we win this week & get the home GF I reckon Subi will be packed so long as it isn't 38 degrees & they play it at 4:00pm!
Anyway, apologies for the thread of this note jumping around, but I've had a few beers. Cascade Blonde is truly a great beer.

What makes you think the Swans wont be challenging again for the premiership in 06 beachlover? They've got pretty much the same list that won it last season.
As for the Dockers hosting the final should they beat the Cats, it's looking good based on the amount of goals they've already kicked:

Oh please. What handouts?  Perhaps you have the Swans confused with Carlton.

Swans were an 8 - 4 position team well coached and things fell their way (thankfully). I'll admit it was done without big contributions of two great players, Goodes (poor season) and Hall (poor finals), but they have lost Jason Teste & a couple of others. Their main strength was their discipline (opposite to Freo) & it will be hard to (mind the phrase) keep it up 2 years in a row.
Grim, I reckon Brisbane with their 3 flags were the true handout recipients but your boys ran them off their legs when you removed the choker.
Brisbane and Essendon may surprise some of the doomsayers this year. I reckon both will be better than the Bulldogs.
Beach was great last night.

I've heard that when Port entered the competition they were given all sorts of concessions/assistance by the AFL. Can anyone confirm this?
As for Ed, well the less said the better when it comes to his criticisms of Sydney and Brisbane. |

I too am finding it hard to go against the Cats. Whilst I'd love to see the Dockers get up and host the final at Subi, sadly, their track record in Victoria doesn't inspire confidence with me on this one. |

You sound like the Melbourne media with their predictions for the Swans each season.

Cascade Blonde? Never heard of that brew, is it new? Good I take it.  |
