Re: AFL Elimination Final 1 Pre Game Prognostications Carlton vs Sydney - Thryleon - 09-08-2023
So Facebook has a feature where your memories come up on your feed. On this day:
Carlton who finished 9th on the ladder, but got into the 8 thanks to the Drug Cheats, defeated Richmond at the MCG in 2013 in the first elimination final during that series. We went on to play (and lose in Sydney against the Swans in week 2).
There would be an ironic symmetry if somehow Sydney (who should have finished 9th if not for an umpiring mishap in Adelaide!) were able to knock off Carlton, only to have to return next week to the MCG and face Melbourne...
Now, that being said, I don't want it to happen, but this spooky.

Yup. Got the same memory.
The way i took it. Carlton won a final at the MCG 10 years ago. That will be repeated tonight.

I had the Malthouse Bradbury meme come up.

I'd suggest our MC has forced the Swans into selecting Melican, who hasn't played since Rnd 18.
What time do they confirm the Sub?

The last time I was this nervous about playing in a final, I don't think I had any pubic hair.......

You know what pisses me off, why when they started at 7:20pm last night do we have to start at 7:50pm tonight?

It does seem a little pointless, but I think the rationale is partly scheduling around other TV programs, and partly because folks can sleep in tomorrow, but not on Friday morning.

LP School night v weekend.
Less than three hours to go - getting excited (nervously so)
