Oppo Camp Grand Final thread - Hawthorn v Sydney

[Spirit of 26]

If Watts played for Hawthorn there's a good chance that that's what he would be.

Reckon he'd be playing a lot of his footy here: Cnr Whitehorse & Middlesborough Roads, Box Hill.

So I went to the Swans v Freo game as I live in Sydney.

Inside, a little part of me pretended that the white part of the Swans jumper was actually blue.

Our Buddy, Tippett, Goodes and Reid forward line is the envy of the competition! Can't wait until we can throw Hogan into the mix!

Oh wait...

Oh wait...

Chris Dawes will thrive as a sixth forward! Not to mention Mitch Clark...

The Timbers! They be mighty tall.

Two intriguing games this week.

Poort looked very good on home ground but I think the Purple ****s will be all fired up with home ground advantage.

Handbaggers v Norf another hard one to pick. Thinking the Handbaggers just due to finals experience but this one could go either way with Norf getting Boomer back.

 

[ponsdale]

Freo's home ground advantage, added motivation and game style should prevail over Port, despite Ballantyne missing. Fyfe will fire up.

No home ground advantage for Geelong, but I can't see North being able to get past them even though Boomer will be pumped.

 

[Dory_77]

Will Freo still be without Johnson and McPharlin? Even though Port don't have a huge forward line those two are critical to how Freo's defence is set up and they provide a lot of rebound/intercept marks. Should be a couple of cracking games. I think Port could steal it from Freo; Geelong should be too good for North.

 

[schmuttt]

Going to the Geelong game, unfortunately I think North are an excellent chance.

 

[d33my]

Freo's inability to score is a real worry. Yes they will feel more comfortable shutting the game down at Subi but all Port needs is ten or fifteen minutes (in the second half) to blow the game open.

 

[mrmonkey]

Would love Geelong to go out in straight sets they've had their fun winning premierships. As for freo v port don't mind but I think freo are a better chance of knocking off Hawthorn which is another team I want out. Freo is the only team not to win a premiership so I'm on the purple haze.

 

[CTHORANGE]

Feel we should just skip straight to Sydney v Hawthorn and have the GF this weekend

 

[PerfectFooty]

I want the Swans to be knocked out of the prelim really badly now, Buddy on triple M this morning just said they were probably going to play the hawks in the GF. Thats assuming you make it Buddy! i hope that geelong or north beat the swan's because they sound really smug at the moment

Gnawf are up & about.

Gnawf are up & about.

Strange, given Geelong are supposedly the fast starters and Norf the strong finishers. If that's the case, the kitty cats are in trouble. Norf have a large number of spuds out there who are likely to freeze up if it gets tight, so should be an interesting second half.

Aw jeez. Norf doing their best to Norf this up.

 

[Cannon82]

The choke is on...

 

[Crimson Azure]

Deliberate not paid.

 

[Crimson Azure]

Should have been well won by Norf but the umps ensured they got the win in the end.

Umps please let teams win, not get it handed to them with frees.

 

[schmuttt]

I hate norf for so many reasons but have a good mate who does, torn whether I want them to win or not.

Oh btw chip we'll pass you in 2016 as you make your descent, cheers mate.

one of the more bizarre trolls I've seen on BF

[Cannon82]

Eh, who cares. Norf's season will end next week and he'll be able to tell his grandkids many years down the track about the time Norf valiantly battled it out but tripped over the final hurdle before the final hurdle.
