That's the one.
Just so I can come back in a couple of months to see how wrong I was, I'd like to predict right now that the preliminary finalists will be Sydney, Hawthorn, West Coast, and either Collingwood or Essendon. Probably Collingwood, but I expect Essendon to finish the season strongly after the mid-season jitters (will probably be fucked by finishing outside the top four though). West Coast likely premiers. Adelaide to make top four but not the prelims.
That and we usually beat Sydney and have their measure, but then that would mean we'd make the GF, which I'm certain we won't. WHAT HAVE YOU DONE COBBLER.
I'm thinking of a Collingwood/West Coast GF at this stage.
Collingwood wins 10 in a row, plays like shit against a backs-against-the-wall Carlton and loses, and all of a sudden they're not top four certainties? Come on. Surely Essendon will not make top four.
Pies out in straight sets, Nice! I suppose we are due to lose to Sydney at some point. They haven't beaten us since Dustin Fletcher made his debut!.

Best Grand Final I'd been to was probably both of them in 2010. The drama that was the draw when Minley probably should have sealed out fate, because we handed that game to the Saints with some shit kicking and well...they did play pretty awesome too. The replay was insane. A lot of it was a blur (I was 110% sober!) and I lost my voice by the end of it. I'd never hugged so many strangers in my life. That whole day was crazy. 2010 was probably the best year of my life in fact, even though I got married last year, that was the was the only shining light in an otherwise horrible year (non sports related)
2002 was a great grand final as well. The best non-Collingwood granny I've watched were probably the '89 one. Obviously not watching it live, but I've seen the DVD. 2005, 2006 and 2009 were all amazing.
2000 was probably the least favourite one I've watched. As the Bombers smashed Melbourne and not a single fuck was given (if you weren't an Essendon fan) as the Olympics were just a few weeks away.
