    actually, just looking at the ladder, and the recent form, this is the most open finals series i can remember. There is no "gimme" game, no team you want to avoid more than others. It wouldn't shock me to see any of the top 7 in the GF. I would be shocked if the Bombers made it.

      @mariner4life And the top teams all have issues of their own to deal with. Injuries at Geelong, Sydney and the Bulldogs, Melbourne just being Melbourne, Port and the Lions are hot and cold.

      I'm with you - nothing would surprise me this finals series. Throw in games without crowds or over in WA in front of neutral audiences and you've got an absolute lottery.

        Eddie Betts to retire after this weekend's game

        Would have to be one of the very few universally loved players in the comp. Absolute genius around the goals. Kicks a contender for goal of the year every few weeks. Incredible role model

        Will be missed.

              Great to get a solid win over the Crows on Sunday. I think our first loss this season was against them, and they were a banana skin this time also. Hope the Geelong game is on the box!

                    Was he the bloke plucked out of the VFL to debut in a GF and almost won best on ground?

                      No that was Marlon Pickett.

                      Houli started his career with the Bombers and was in and out of the side (more out than in) for a couple of seasons. Then the Tigers picked him up through the draft.

                          i think this is pretty cool, looking at the table as it stands currenlty

                          ca57d0f6-13c8-4a97-96d0-d9b295ecf4f0-image.png

                          eagles, richmond, collingwood and adelaide have all played in grand finals in the last two or three years...and are all currently out of the payoff spots, obviously shit for thse fans but its cool how much things can change from one season to another, fans can hoestly believe "this year might be our year" every season

                              Am really only a casual fan of AFL and only watch the Crows (who?) when in contention (So not for few years ...), don't know tactics or structure only what works out good or bad.

                              But I think anyone who enjoys sport of any type would love what Eddie brings/brought. He just does freakish shit all.da.time!

                              Loved what he did in yellow/red/blue.

                              A highlights tape of Eddie would get you interested in the game.

                                      Dees are killing it. Last 10 minutes possessions are 38-9 to the Dees.

                                      Max in the middle dominating.

                                          Came back from the dead and finish top of the ladder. Brilliant.
