they couldn't pre-plan the second round draw because the two wildcards could have come from any group.

this is the way andy and his henchmen guarantee there pay rises each year.manipulate the fixture to ensure they get maximum crowd numbers and maximum tv ratings , they obviously want a coll/ ess final to ensure this. although saints or cats would still be ok . would love to see the pies send a second string team to perth to play the weagles, however the suns may cause an upset, and the other semi, bombers get an eight day break to play either saints or cats who will have a six day break. how fair is that

Not sure I can trust the AFL website in matters such as this.

I'm gonna check a certain FB site that has all the right connections

Which site would that be

Its a friggin practice game. Who cares. Anyway if we win we play in Melbourne not Perth. Imagine the whinging if the pies played the dons and we had to travel to Perth. Some people need to get the chip off their shoulder before they just fall over.

And the old 6 day break. Can you tell me who won out of Essendon and Melbourne and who had the 6 day break. How unfair is that.

Neither of them had a six day break, but Sydney did.

You obviously subscribe to the little paper. The paper that sponsors the club says we'll play Essendon again, and apparently that is what will happen.

Please be more specific when you make comments from the paper.

I'd rather play Essendon, may as well try to work out how to beat them sometime.

Maybe you should find a better bandwagon to get on. Plenty on this one already.

You quote "the paper" as if it's gospel, and then have a crack at me.
About time you were given a holiday.

You really have little idea. A holiday for what. Talk about soft skinned. Are you related to Stinger.

To save space I've deleted the previously posted part of the quote (pity you don't do that, but then again, all you're about is taking up as much space as possible).

You and you mate stinger should both be given a long holiday, just to recharge the batteries.

You claim to have a few drinks at the McKinnon, so we've probably been imbibing together on occasion. Strange that I haven't noticed you with you magnetic personality.
