On a lighter note...
"Our fans are used to reasonable success, and if you go last at this club I'll make sure I'm out of the country. It will be a special flight, one seat next to the pilot. And you know where I'm going? Cuba."
Ah you can always rely on a bit of comic relief from the master coach Kevin Sheedy.
Must be a worry though Chrisso, instead of talking up the opposition like he usually does before a big game, he is this time talking about Melbourne's 'soft draw' and the fact that Melbourne are coming off the Putriaco road trip and that his boys are primed.
I suppose this is why he's still in the business because you can never predict what he is going to do next.

Sheedy and Malthouse have both come from the same school on
Proximus Centori I believe.
Although looking at the draw I'm finding this one the hardest to call in terms of my tipping. Essendon play good finals footy and Melbourne at present are just totally unpredictable. If Neitz doesn't play I think they'll play even better than usual.
Decisions, decisions!

Neitz did well against us last time, so naturally I'll be hoping he doesn't play. Melbourne absolutely dominated us last time so I'm not too confident even when taking into account their recent form. Hopefully Sheeds has a few tricks up his sleeve this time.
