Rare arxcards Posted August 20, 2023 #251 Share Posted August 20, 2023 Go West Coast!! Swannies are in if WC can go on with an upset, and will leave GWS and Bulldogs to decide the remaining spot that is up for grabs. If we can get over Melbourne next Sunday, it looks good for a home elimination final. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Mareblu Posted August 22, 2023 #255 Share Posted August 22, 2023 On 8/20/2023 at 9:22 AM, MicCanberra said: Yep, that game with extra time and penalties against France really took it out of them. The subsequent games the Matildas seemed sluggish and lacking the usual speed and crispness in attack and defence. Still glad and proud they got to the semis, and did so well. I concur on all points. The memories to carry are many, but the two most important, for me, are their graciousness in defeat, and the tremendous, unparalleled swell of national support, from political opponents to followers of all sporting codes. Well done, Matildas. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's hope this is the beginning of a long run at WC events. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare MicCanberra Posted August 27, 2023 #258 Share Posted August 27, 2023 Swans start today in 7th spot, they can finish 5th, 6th, 7th or 8th depending on if they win or lose but also if the GWS win over Carlton and by the margins on each game.

No worries, I caught most of the game, they played well in parts, really came strong for most of the 3rd quarter but couldn't go on with it in the 4th. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go Swans! i expect carlton will have a very full side with cripps and doc and hopefully pittonet as well weitering may go for a week after the incidence with toby greene , some are confident he will only get fined Acres may not play depending on his collarbone after scans Edited August 28, 2023 by ozdevil 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be supporting the Swans in their final against the Blues although of course I didn't barrack for them yesterday as I would have been disowned by Rob. At the moment the Blues are favourites at $1.51 and the Swans are at $2.56 to win. Edited August 28, 2023 by possum52 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blues have a score to settle with those swannies some time ago by knocking them out of a finals race . time the blues get a bit back in all seriousness though despite the odds and who is favourite the finals series is lot different to the minor premiership season that just finished ... its all or nothing and each game from either side have to win other wise season over . As carlton Supporter i am just wrapped that the blues clawed there way back and i think Sydney will see a different blues come the 8th of September Go blues 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, same could be said for a few other teams that missed out of finals and also a few that just scraped in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
