Got any idea who they might target to take his spot sunks? Ricciuto again? (Who i dare say would decline with young family/pub commitments), Buckley? (Who would be good for a couple of years, as i think he will be the next Collingwood coach)
The recently retired Jeff Farmer? haha...
Anyways, it's finals time. I'm feeling pretty ocnfident about my boys to be honest. Collingwood are without Shaw and Didak, Burns and Thomas are fighting to be fit (and could be liabilities if they go out with an injury) and Collingwood are travelling from Perth, back to Victoria and then to Adelaide
Really, if they do beat us, all the credit to them. Don't screw it up Adelaide!!
Hawthorn-Bulldogs on Friday is going to be a great way to start the finals, can't wait.

Good win for the saints Going to Adelaide Oval on Sunday Steve? Watch out for those dogs. Pretty tight finish in the footy tipping comp. I didnt realise there was a prize involved, if i win i'd feel guilty taking it as I dont post here much

Glenelg were covered on the ten news here yesterday, I was like "bree's its ozphoria's team!!!!" ... she had no idea what I was on about Speaking of Ozphorias team (Or Ozphoria except Saintals team ), a little update Glenelg go into battle in the Second Semi Final on Sunday. Glenelg finished top for the first time since 1981, giving them a week off and the double chance. The last time they won this game (where the winner goes into the Grand Final) was in 1990, when they beat the Port Adelaide Magpies by under 20 points i think. This week they take on Central Districts who have owned this Decade in the SANFL, playing in all 8 Grand Finals and winning 6. Glenelg haven't won a premiership since 1986 and haven't made a grand final since 1992 Fingers crossed!

"Ozphoria's team" now eh? Would be good to see a Sturt V Glenelg final, with Sturt getting up. Sorry Steve, being a South man I just cant bring myself to support the tigers Oh, and go you saints! Losing 3 prelims in 5 years wont be nice should it happen

OK so I'm going to the Public Relations Institute of Australia dinner to find out if I won an award for a project I did with some friends at uni. All good, except for I miss the cats game... The thing about being a cats fan (for a long time) is that you're a nervous wreck until the team actually start playing. But I do have fond memories of prelim finals against the bulldogs. Billy Brownless was my favourite player as a youngin, we used to go to some country town where he was from and meet him and try to kick the footy over the silos.

I went with the following:
Tyson Edwards to get most votes for Adelaide (Longshot, but polls well usually and at 21/1) Motlop to get most for Port Ablett to win from Jimmy and Harvey(I did one for Bartel to win from Gaz and Harvey but was hard to decide!) Cooney to be leading at halfway - Simon Black could be thereabouts also And a multi bet with Riewoldt, Boomer Harvey, Simon Black, Adam Cooney, Richo, Juddy, Cameron Bruce to all get the most votes in their clubs
I think Judd could get more votes than predicted tonight, always catches the eyes of the umps. Not saying he will win, but he could crack the top 5 depending on what the umps have seen.
