nailed it Laj.
easily the most important game for a number of years. nothing is more important than beating collingwood to setup a run at the finals. but we have a horrible recent history of showing some promise, getting some respect and a shot at finals, and then crapping our pants on the big stage. especially when the media blows smoke up our butts and the boys get a bit ahead of themselves.
if we've turned the corner for real this time, we'll beat them (only just if they come to play for real), or we'll pants them. Either way, we'll win this one. And I don't care if it's by a point.
I'd like to see one or both of Kennedy and Dow in. Not sure who goes out. Dow was my pick for surprise packet this year, which wasn't looking good early, and then he got injured and missed a heap, so looked even worse. Even so, I think he'll play 2 or 3 of the last games, and hope he'll show what I hoped he'd show. Ya know.
