BAAAAAAAAAAAAAALL! - The Fever AFL Thread

Bluddy funny actually... who's gonna win it?

I really don't care (obviously) but hope the Cats don't... they play horrible footy - though I guess it's understandable given their coach so using the opposite logic would like to see the Hawks get up, even though Buddy is a c*ck.

Surely it's got to be the Hawks or Cats....If the Cats win tonight, they end up playing Freo or the Hawks?

I'm stoked the pies have gone...I see Nick Dal Santo might be delisted by the Saints too....what are we doing.

Well done Hawks!!

Buddy to Sydney?! What the.....Sydney must have a fair amount of money in their salary cap....sounds like the A-League

Its a throwback to the days when Sydney were shite and couldn't attract players so they have an additional amount in their salary cap for these types of signings. Typical AFL still see Sydney as an AFL backwater so they haven't changed the rules!

Saints Vs Brisbane in Wellington next year!!

$40 for AFL/NRL double header tickets.

Anyone else going this year?

Hell yeah... I'm a Lions fan from *waaaaaaaaaay back!

(well, 2001 when I moved there, which happened to be the first year of their three-peat lol)

Two teams who might struggle this year? Although I see my Sainters won there first game albeit against the Dees.

Bluddy Lions are a shambles, and now Daniel Rich is gone for the season... so... who's going on ANZAC Day?

Yeah, here's hoping RR!

Forecast isn't looking good. OOOOOO when the Saints. We have actually started well this year. Surprisingly so.

Brisbane looking pretty shaky huh?

Shaky is an understatement NB - no depth, JB slow start to the season (and ageing) and one of our top three players gone for the season. 

Definitely going now just won some tickets lol

On ya Jono!

Both teams get pumped on the weekend. Wellington game might be between the two bottom clubs!

114 point loss. Jeezus.

Actually watched that game on sommet. What a hiding. I don't know much about AFL but could tell early on that Adelaide were clearly the better team.

Think AFL is growing on me. I like the continuous nature of it, whereas NRL and rugby stop every 30 seconds for injuries, scrums or to check with video ref for 5mins at a time to see whether a try was scored. 

Yip, we're knackered. Too many injuries - no experience (Browny aside). It's pretty bluddy ordinary!

Weather forecast isn't looking promising for ANZAC Day.

I've followed the Hawks since I was a little kid and they played the '83 grand final on TV. I've been to two games in Wellington and one in Melbourne (Hawks v 'Roos, back in the Wayne "Tosser" Carey days when we got beat badly). My mate in Aussie backs the Swannies so they're my second team.

Turned out to be a pretty decent night for it. Saints should have won that but I bet SurgeQld is rather happy atm. Disappointing about the crowd tho.

Yeah crowd was disappointing, but I had a great night.

Helped out by the Mezzanine bar, good food, better beer, and then the game really turned it on near the end, was an awesome finish.

Oh dear....Saints 30 Hawks 175?!! Brisbane got absolutely pumped too!

Grand Final Day 2014!!!!

Much Excite!

Carn the Bloods!

Indeed. Yellow and Brown should be illegal in any sports uniform.

Hawks all over them like a bad suit in the first...

the swans are honking 

Not winning 50/50 ball in midfield.

Getting worried now!

Shut the gate.

I may be extremely biased here so can someone else watching tell me if the Umpires are being harsh on the Swans?

Possibly. They certainly have had not had the better of it... but... of greater import, the Hawks have bossed the Swans in the middle of the park.

Glad im not the only one seeing that. Dont want to sound too bitter

Hawthorn's Will Langford for Norm Smith Medal in my opinion...
