SEPTEMBER!!!
What a great time of year! I just got back from a brilliant weekend of footy in Melbourne and am looking forward to not having to watch Melbourne, Freo, North, Port and Richmond anymore.
It was an interesting final round, The rushed behind rule was suddenly re-introduced on Friday night, Lloydy and Campbell Brown attempted a remake of the 'line in the sand game' and proceeded to make it a soap-opera once the game was over, The Crows played arguably their best game of the year in a 176-104 scorefest, the Dogs snatched 3rd spot and the Birdman almost cut his head on the Docklands roof while taking THE GREATEST MARK OF ALL TIME!
As much as I'd love to say Port lost that game on their merits, the Lade and Purgoyne parade was clearly unfairly rained on by that over-sensitive, inflexible dickhead of an umpire who gave Scotty McMahon a fifty for a brush on the chest by Nate 'Krak-whore' Krakouer. Ok, so I still found that kinda funny, but yeah I'd hate it if it happened to the Crows.
...and going to Salvos to dress up in wierd clothes is a wierd mad-monday activity by the Power but I'll leave that...
Finals start on Friday with the Crows against an undermanned Essendon. Carlton should beat an equally undermanned Brisbane while the two top 4 clashes look like being rippers.

What are you guys thinking going into the finals? With such an even spread from 1-5 it promises to be a crazy 4wks!
