Boyd was always going to poll more than Lake. You suck.

Jeez I'm struggling with the week so far. Wasn't thus nervous, scratchy and distracted the week before my first child was born. Forget what I said about loving this week, I just want Saturday to get here and be done one way or another - obviously preferably with the one way rather than "another".

dontcloseyoureyes, this is your final warning. If you do not drive me to Oportos and pay for my upsize I'm going to have to call you a ****.

You must be confident though.

Pies on fire in the last month.

In a way would prefer to be going in with no-one giving us a shot. Keep having periods where the hope that we'll win is completely overwhelmed by the fear we'll lose. Don't know whether you fully grasp the relationship Collingwood fans have with Grand Finals! :p. 2002 and 2003 I was living in Canberra and hence a bit removed - still cracked the ****s with my boss at work the following Monday in 2002 when she made fun of us. :(.

I'll be fine on Saturday, but it already feels like a long week!

Not the worst problem to have I suppose :D

Poor Saints having to wear a clash jumper. Collingwood entitled to wear it's home jumper under the rules, but the Saints will apparently be getting changed into their proper jumpers before the presentation if they win. As if you can't tell Pies from Saints if they both wore their proper jumper. 8-)

Will be changing into the Collingwood jumper if they win, iirc.

Lot of revisionism goes on about the 2003 GF, the Pies were favourites going in after beating the Lions in the Qualifying Final, only to get bent over. Because of the size of the defeat, people forget that.

Yep Vic I've been pointing that out to people.

Wish I was over 18 back in 03 and could have jumped on the Lions :ph34r:
