Just a quick message. My PC seems to be playing games, so I am posting a quick message from my daughters house. I believe that the GF aggregate was 200, but I don't have time to look through everything from here.

And Go Catters! Premiers again in 2011.

IF... the aggregate was 200 then Andrew Burke at 201 and then MaJu at 199 in that order from what I can see looking back quickly through the thread. Congratulations to the winner in any case.

If that is the case, the first of them to have posted is the winner I think?

Great Game.

Congratulations to the winner and to you Norm for all your hard work.

Congrats, Norm on the Geelong win. Are you going out drinking with 'em later? :lol:

I have done a quick check and I believe Drew has it correct:

Andrew Burke at 201 the MaJu at 199.

I also believe in this case, the first post is the winner, which will be Andrew.

Just waiting for Norm to confirm this is correct. :wink:

I think Norm is suffering from Ecstatic Cats Disease :!:

As his official back-up (not needed this year, thankfully) I have checked and can confirm that Andrew Burke, MaJU and Crosscrescent were all one-off. The first posting was by Andrew so he is the winner.

A couple of others were only two away so it was a close run thing.

Yay! I'm back. My computer started playing games Saturday afternoon and I am only just back on line from home.

Well, in truth, I spilled a glass of wine, and ruined the Mouse and the Keyboard, and only got the chance to replace them today. Thanks to Kevin for tidying up after me, to Andrew for winning and to Lakatoi for the wonderful Grand Final prize.

And again thanks to all the faithful for making this competition so interesting and, well, competitive.

Did I forget anything? Oh yes I did.

Thank you for a wonderful five years, four Grand Finals and three premierships.

Premiers 1925, 1931, 1937, 1951, 1952, 1963, 2007, 2009, 2011

Maybe one more year....

Norm, did you want to talk about 1989 and 2008?

fromdownunder · **Posted:** Mon Oct 03, 2011 15:29:02 pm

Not really Peter. Do you want to talk about 1963?

OK, let's leave it till next year. The Mighty Hawks will be a major force and, in my opinion, are about to enter another golden era to match the 1980s (but with more premierships!)

Just a timely reminder folks, that Norm has again generously offered to run the 2012 AFL tipping, and has opened shop already here -
