The mighty St.Kilda Australian football club have just won their 17th game of the season. They remain undefeated after smashing the third placed western Bulldogs by 43 points.


Needless to say, I'm pretty stoked about this...

I hope they cop the Pies in the first week of the finals on a wet and rainy day at the G.  

Actually I'd probably prefer to play the Cats in week one and avoid the Saints until the GF. Then I'd like the heavens to open up.

I spent some time in Wigan and Bolton. They used to cop lots of pies. And pasties.

Quoted from Takeshi I hope they cop the Pies

What is this cop a pie?

Sounds like a Sorrority House.

It Wigan it means stuff that pastry in your mouth as fast as you can fat boy.

The New England Patriots were 16-0 going to into the Super Bowl last year.  They wanted to copyright the phrase "17-0."

They had their asses handed to them.

FYI.


Phil

The Pats were actually 18-0 on Super Bowl day. I have been thinking of that Phil, trust me!

Chris, a Magpie lad, ay? Yeah, we could play you first up. I'd like to see you guys beat Geelong in the prelim. It's gonna be interesting, for sure.

Quoted from CindyLKeller What is this cop a pie? Sounds like a Sorrority House.

Aussie slang. It means I hope that the St Kilda football has to play the Collingwood football club, AKA the Magpies, AKA the Pies in the first week of the finals (play-offs)

In fact I might start using Aussie slang all the time for now on. Sure, most of you guys won’t know what I’m talking about but it might make me seem more exotic.  

Back on topic, unless the Saints have a bad run of injuries I can't see anyone stopping them. This is why I hope it rains if the Pies have to play them. That'd take the skill out of the game and just turn it in to a wet weather slog which would give us a better chance of winning as we're a pretty good wet weather team and the Saints play most of their games at Etihad Stadium which is an indoor stadium.

Just go easy on the rooting about. And no rorting. Sorry, I'm talkin outta my freckle.

Here you go, a bit of Leon magic from Friday night's game.

BTW, gotys isn't more slang. It was a typo which was supposed to mean goals.

Yeah top goal by Neon. That guy is a freak. Imagine him and Milney in each pocket!

I was getting worried about playing at the G in the finals. But we have three outdoor games before then and we did have three finals games there last year.

I only think us, Geelong and you guys can win the flag. The others are realistically no chance, who ever gets in the 8.

19 in a row now Stevie.

And my boys have jumped into outright third after their win over the Crows. After a slow start to the season we've won something like 10 out our last 11 games now. I'm excited about our chances of playing in the Grand Final but with the way the Saints are going it's hard to see anyone beating them. So I'm feeling a mixture of hope and dread.

Hey Chris, I'm watching AFL Gameday now. I tipped the Pies and I still tipped the Saints even with heaps out.
I reckon you guys could knock off Geelong in the first final if you play them. Or in a prelim.
I just hope we make the GF and see what happens after that. Cheers buddy.

If you're into omens and stuff, and know I'm an absolute Beatles freak, Grand final day is September 26, which is the 40th anninversary of the Abbey Road album...

Pies by 93 points today. Who-AH!!!!!!!

So they should've!! Richmond...woeful.

I think we'll hammer the Bombers tonight.

Did you see the Bulldogs/Lions game, Chris? Rocket said it was their best win of the season but I wasn't overly impressed with them.

Lucky the Saints are flying....my EPL team Aston Villa lost to Wigan on the opening day last night....sigh.  Gary will be happy with the Gunner's sweet six though!

The Nfl pre-season started too and my Niners beat Denver.  It's all happening at the moment. How the hell do we get time to write?!!
