Norm, an explanation is in order regarding the result down there!

Prophetic words .... how many others tipped the Swans at Geelong?

First loss in 4 years there I think?

Good news Norm

And here I was thinking we'd better not tell Norm the score of the game with Sydney! (LOL)

I hope it was a result of resting some players once the Pies had clinched first place ... because if not, then Hawthorn is going to crush them, I'm afraid.

No Forward line - a lot of set shots missed, Hawkins is not an AFL player, Johnson eMailed his game in and Podsiadly looked lost.

Great to hear your good news Norm!!!

The Swans transformed into geese guarding the single malt warehouses and played like they should have in earlier games - no pussies had a chance!!

The great thing was the way the young inexperienced players stood up as well as the usual suspects (Goodes, Bolton etc) - the calibre of the cats team is something I think the young guys would have found a little daunting to begin with!!

Go the Swannniesss!!!!!!!

Bill

Cats, Magpies and St Kilda all totally off the boil, and the Eagles JUST beat the lowly Lions, and Carlton had no place in the 8 anyway.

Sydney have left their form fine-tuning to the BUSINESS end of the season.

A script made in heaven.

A Swans/Collingwood Grand final looming, and no way will those tattooed delinquents win 2 years running.

What are the odds on a Swans Grand final - do the bookies offer that?

Actually Richomnd if they had made the final 8 would scare more teams than West coast and Carlton will.

3 great results in last 3 weeks.

Except for 3 or 4 players, the team looked like they were still enjoying the bye.

Don't forget that in 2007, Port Adelaide beat Geelong under nearly identical circumstances and we all know who won the flag in 2007

Essendon 120 d Port Adelaide 113

This one was pretty un - be - loodylievable. Port were six goals up with thirteen minutes to play. Essendon just ran over the top in that time. For 13 minutes, port Adelaide pretended to be Witches hats.

Round 24

Geelong (to bounce back and, in any event, I dislike Collingwood intensely).
Hawthorn
Bulldogs (one of the tough ones to pick)
Sydney (playing for a possible home final)
St. Kilda (because I hate Carlton!)
West Coast (massacre in the making)
Melbourne
Richmond (very tough, but it would be nice to see them finish in their traditional 9th place)

Also echo the many thanks to Norm ... The Board Of Directors today approved a 3 sticky rice grain raise for his efforts.

Our dodgy accountants - Schwindler, Schwindler and Schwindler advise that after fees, GST, withholding tax, Medicare levy and compulsory Superannuation deductions - he now owes us half a grain nett.
