The OFFICIAL 2010 T&T who to root for thread

[Throughandthrough]

Due to popular demand #

It's back!

It's based allmost entirely on flawed logic!

Some of you won't understand!

If you think you do, then explain it to me!

Do you agree that the Dogs cant finish first or second?

Do you agree that we MUST finish top 4?

Ever wondered who to barrack for in every single game? (Apart from your Super Coach players, but anyways you have used too many draft picks so you are stuffed anyway)

Here's all you need, the 2009 (edit) the 2010 "T&T who to Root for thread"


I will update this EVERY WEEK (possibly)

And yes, it is quite probable that towards the end of the year I may change some of these calls retrospectively. Or even ignore myself.

# thanks to both of them, you know why you are.

[LostDoggy]

I useually don't care about the AFL if the dogs are not playing. But now I am adopting you as my master and will support the teams you tell me. Hope you are right. Lets go Blues, Swannies, Cats, Port. Dons, Tigers, & Crows. (God have mercy on my sole!)

[Remi Moses]

Half of me wants Carlton to win but the other half detests them! What a dilema

TCD was one ... who else do we have to blame for this T&T ??

I want Fremantle to lose to Carlton, but I don't want Carlton to win! I hate the bastards!

A draw wouldn't be much chop for us either.

How about Carlton get done for salary cap rorting, they are banned from earning points for the season and then go out and beat Freo?
You know, hypothetically.

[Go_Dogs]

Excellent work T&T. Shame the Bombers couldn't quite get over the line last night. Hawthorn really worry me, although their defence and ruck departments are both still average...

Here is another. Guess who worked at StKilda before he went to the Storm and left a real bad taste in their trophy cabinet with one book too many? Back and bite the 'nonsinners'on the bum in sort of suddenly retrospectively Waldron way. ;)

Mate,

What a shemozzle, at least the bulldogs won which is the most important thing. Stupid heart over head put mostly the same as I was rooting for into my footy tips. A dismal 2 because, like you, I hate the cows so I picked Melbourne. I have gone from about 3 off the leaders at work to about 6!
At least centrals beat Glenelg... sorry couldnt resist T&T ;)

Geez, not many easy results in our favour. Richmond, Adelaide and perhaps even North seem like our best bets!

Ade and Rich are fair chances and there usually are one or two upsets so hope that continues as long as we aren't one of them....

[boydogs]

Well our fate is back in our own hands - Freo have lost to the tigers, so if we beat Carlton & Port and Freo beats Melbourne, we could take 4th off them in round 17

Also a good sign for us that Freo aren't the world beaters away from home now that they were earlier in the year - they may drop a couple of other games v North in round 19 in Melbourne, and v Hawthorn in round 21 in Tassie. They also have Carlton, Sydney and West Coast at home to take care of, so we may be able to drop one or two ourselves and get 4th with 14 or 15 wins

I know we want the Dawks off our tail, but what if they can win and St Kilda poo themselves into a freefall (ambitious rooting I concede) following 2 successive losses?

[Throughandthrough]

Ask me in a month whether tonight was a good result for us or not, I have no bloody idea....

[The Pie Man]

Was probably as good as a win for both ladder wise - Dawks % is worse than us & Freo, so those two points may help them at the end of the year.

The 2 points won't help them overtake Collingwood, but with a lowish % for a top 4 team, the 2 points may be handy ....though the top 3 do enjoy a bit of a buffer from us/Freo

I would think you'd be most happy with Power beating the Crows Throughandthrough!! My friends in Adelaide love it when ANYONE beats the Crows. Are they still talking finals? ;)

Very, very quiet day at the office yesterday. This from the same people that mentioned the player formerly known as number 39 about 411 times on Friday.

A good friend of mine is on the match day staff at the Crows, and it was his birthday yesterday. Stuffed up his day really badly :)

[The Pie Man]

I know we want the Dawks off our tail, but what if they can win and St Kilda poo themselves into a freefall (ambitious rooting I concede) following 2 successive losses?

Ahhh how weird is this? I can't claim the freefall call, I thought Essendon would get embarassed tonight.

Not complaining though :D

Big loss for the Saints, we will only be half a game behind them if we beat North.
Gives us a chance at 3rd, and another side now in the battle for the 4 as opposed to having a spot sewn up

[Ghost Dog]

Sport can be a bit random. There must be a couple of very chuffed punters out there who put clams on the Bombers.
Have to be on our game against North 0 show them enough respect to put them down early and hard.

[FlightoftheCallanWards]

Go Power!

[The Pie Man]

Just need West Coast to make the most of their silly chance today and this could be one sweet round of footy results wise

[LongWait]

If Freo do get up against the Weagles they will be two points behind the Saints.

Saints to play Port; North; Richmond; Adelaide
Freo to play North; Sydney; Hawthorn; Carlton.

You never know: it may be Freo and the Bullies fighting it out for 3rd and 4th spots with Saints finishing 5th.

Not bad - though the Saints have got a really easy run home (that did include Essendon on Friday I'll concede)

[Scorlibo]

I don't know why either of Hawthorn or St Kilda were disappointed with their draw, considering their percentages it was win for each.

Yep, if not for that interchange infringement last week which gifted St Kilda a draw against Hawthorn, they'd now be equal 4th with Fremantle with us in 3rd spot. :mad:

This week, Go North!!!

If Collingwood knock off Geelong next week, we'll have the chance to send Geelong to 4th the week after.

[chef]

If Collingwood knock off Geelong next week, we'll have the chance to send Geelong to 4th the week after.

And maybe grab 2ND place on the ladder.

[aker39]

If Collingwood knock off Geelong next week, we'll have the chance to send Geelong to 4th the week after.

If Geelong beat Collingwood, they'll have a chance to send us to 5th the following week. I'm sure they would prefer to play freo in week one of the finals.

FREMANTLE ruckman Aaron Sandilands has a foot injury and will miss Saturday's crucial clash with North Melbourne at Etihad Stadium.

Sandilands is only expected to miss one match as the club comes to terms with a mounting injury list that threatens to derail its hopes for a top-four finish and a valuable double chance in September.

Fremantle was this week rocked by injuries to star defender Chris Tarrant (knee) and goalsneak Hayden Ballantyne (foot), who were injured in last Sunday's western-derby demolition of West Coast.

Horrible hoping North win but great result. That result flattered Geelong they're way better than that,haven't seen much footy today but that's a poor performance from the so called smokey Hawthorn

[Greystache]

Give Adelaide a nice touch up tomorrow and we're sitting pretty in the 4. Now that Collingwood look like finishing top I'd been keen for St Kilda to hang onto 3rd, I'd be happy facing Collingwood in the first final.

Dont do it then, root for the pies. Its only really our game and freo's that matter. Personally I prefer the pies win and they keep top spot so we get them first week. But thats just me.

[Scraggers]

C'mon T & T, I'm expecting 8 from 8 out of you this week particularly us and the Hawks

[The Adelaide Connection]

Ok mate, I think it is time. This year (with the scrap to get in the 8) we need you more than ever.
