The stars are aligning! Build the Blacktown to John Anderson Stadium Expressway now!

Haha thatd be at least another 40 seasons away from completion.. we'd be better off relocating...

Your team needs one of these for those regular trips north.

Yeah, that was my point. If you stay out of the Jinx' half of the draw then you're 2 wins from the AFLC if they make the final!

Knowing my luck, the cats will win when I don't want them to instead of 2 weeks ago in league.

or

Jinx win and I get to play them in the semis!

I guess my post sounded a bit more dire then I meant it to be. Most of those campaign endings with a match against the Wildcats were in the final (and would have ended win or lose as they did). Just a funny streak is all, we've almost entirely been able to keep on the opposite sides of the draw for many seasons now.

Either way, it'll be a good challenge, but what I'm most pleased about are a whole bunch of other teams also stepping up. The structure of the cup means it quite possibly could be anybody's, and I think that leads to great stories.
