Just an opinion but after the Faders winning the minor premiership, the Drongos were then railed into a round 1 'victory' during week 1 of the finals that destroyed the Faders' energy.
Panthers had a somewhat gratuitous late season energy surge but flopped.
Sharks had enough of a surge to beat us (we played our worst game of the season against them with errors during every key play despite physically dominating them in the middle) and then meh... beat the Faders convincingly enough when they were still recovering from 90+ minutes of heartbreaking footy (where they won twice and still 'lost').
Blah blah respect to Bellamy but I'm not watching the GF and couldn't give a hoot who wins between Brisbane and Melbourne. It just feels like a bland game against 2 teams that were never the 'best' this year and we coulda beaten if we didn't fark up against the Sharks.
Women's game... I'll get onboard but do I wanna watch this GF? Naaah. IMO it's not gonna be between the best 2 teams and there's just no 'soul' about it.
Then we hear Marky Mark's p!ssing off in 2027 so will probably play dead in 2026. Damn I wish I could just fast forward to next season with Reece Robson in our colours, the DCE situation settled and a clearer view of who's playing on our wing in 2027 (Toops will be ~36 by then!!!)

Speaking of drinks, there will be a lot of them between now and 2027. Might make a thread about wingers.
