There is an excitement around the town. Even the radio stations are talking about the game tomorrow night. The chance to see Michael Voss play outstanding footy again and a chance to squash the pies again!
Can't wait :)

That's a misleading story, no live telecast in Sydney and I would put a lot of money on the NRL Footy Show being telecast before the AFL in Canberra as well.

Have a look at the two teams and their relative performances thus far(including Whizzer Cup) and tell me how it is a "big game"
Oops, silly of me, it has to be the "big game", it's the only one on.Geez I'm dumb sometimes.
Brisbane to win by as much as they want.

And there is never any need to include the Whizzer Cup in anything.

Hopefully it will be shown on Main event at the same time as 9 Melbourne shows it - that is the normal Friday night deal, but who knows on a Thursday...

Yes Westy, you are dumb. You think the only big game is when the E Girls are playing. Clearly the match of the year will be the incredibly close tussle that will be the Geelong v Swans match LOL.

They picked Rhyce Shaw I see. Must be because of his record against Brisbane ha ha. I hope he enjoys the trip, just like Lynchy did in the Granny heh heh.
Ah, the pressure's off. We've got the spoon and the draft picks all wrapped up so now I can concentrate on bagging everyone else's ar5e :)

Just hope there are not too many injuries and no reports - from either side. So there is no whinging next week.
For those of you who celebrate Easter have a great one, for those of you who don't have a great weekend. As for me, I'm getting ready to pack my purse and piss off to the Gabba!
