Blues by 1. Should be a cracking game provided Dogs gets the job done.

 

[Power Raid]

blues by 14 but could easily go the other way

should be a ripper

 

[Corn Cobbers]

Tipping a draw (unless Bris v Melb on Friday night is a draw and/or Dogs lose) as that would suit both clubs

If scores are level with 10 minutes to go, expect another "Disgrace of Gijón" situation

 

[Chism]

Not confident at all but we are chance if we play like we did against the Dees but who knows how we bounce back after a game like that.

Pies are a good outfit and it won’t be easy. They could very easily smash us out the park with JDG coming back in.

Would love a Cerra / Kennedy and Hewitt to be available but it won’t happen. Zac Williams may come back in but he will be underdone after a couple of months out.

Don’t even know if I will be able to stomach watching it after last Saturday night.

 

[Arr0w]

Given what both clubs have at stake, think it will be close for most of the game

This is what worries me.

Pies will beat us in a close contest. We need to be up early and not give them a sniff.

 

[Thrawn]

I think Cerra will be back, as his case was tightness so was withdrawn as a precaution.

[tigers_of_old_08]

I think it’ll be the Pies who will bounce back in (hopefully) a close one!

 

[Jimmy Yamazaki]

I think Pies will win, but i'd be nice for the Blues to get up and have a Pies vs Tigers EF would be great to watch.

Come on Chism don’t pull out the injury excuses early

I’m sure the Pies would also love 3 of their starting centre bounce players in Grundy, Adams and JDG starting too!

Just playin’ but very hard to tip this one. Realistically, Pies should get the job done being the superior unit who’ve proven it all season long, but Pies Blues games are always 50/50.

You guys have not had Grundy all season nearly and been doing well. Cameron has been immense for you.

Our outs are a bit harder to fill and when we were in flying form around the bye week at 8-2 Kennedy / Hewitt and Cerra were pivotal to us out the guts while Crippa and Walsh were allowed some freedom.

Next minute they start to drop like flies and we don’t have the midfield depth to cover them. You can replace 1 or 2 all over the place but 3 quality players all on the same line is hard not to mention Pitto only playing a couple of senior games in the last 10 weeks or so.

It is what it is though and no one can control these factors and hope we get a good game.

Goal for the Blues will be for their starting mids to be better and get in the positive for centre clearances so as to give Curnow and McKay first dibs one out against their defenders. Moore is our only quality KPD at the moment and Howe/Murphy will struggle one out against McKay.

Cottrell on the wing, Docherty (midfield again?) and Saad across HB will need to counter Collingwood’s rebounding run the other way and hurt the Pies the other way.

Will be a fascinating game. Hopefully the two sides don’t let us down and put on a clinic. Absolute criminal this is Sunday arvo and not prime time. AFL going to be making plenty off it regardless.

If we are smart the tag or negating player needs to go straight to Nick Daicos. Swans showed how effective this can be as McCrae loves using him all over the place and you can’t allow him to be running around unmarked.

Doch in the middle is good but it is robbing Peter to pay Paul effect as we need his footy smarts off half back.

Going to be an intriguing game which I won’t see much of as I have a family turn on which maybe a good thing honestly as I couldn’t bare another game like last week.

 

[Thrawn]

It's funny you say that because a lot of our own keep on saying he's struggling back there, at least his rebounding kicking skills. So it'd be more like robbing Peter to pay Peter.

 

[Osho]

Both coming off losses.
Pies are the more resilient group.
I think Blues are more burdened.
Pies should win.
And the Cripps Cosa Nostra clique can go and get fracked!

Draw at $50 is a great bet

Was pretty confident a week ago but not any more, our bubble has popped and the Blues looked better than us on the weekend

Feels like another close one coming up

Draw doesn't work for the Pies, as Freo would overtake us on percentage and we'd finish 5th.

Ahhh *×!#% there goes my grand theory

Ok then Pies by 1 point

Nah, Pies by two goals minimum to take care of all the business we need to (assuming the Doggies do the right thing).

 

[YouBeauty]

We may as well not show up according to campaigners here and in the media.

[domus]

My heart and gut cannot handle yet another season on the line clash. Every game has been consequential for the Pies throughout our winning run yet we drop one and fall out of the four and now have to win the next one to get back in. It's emotionally exhausting.

 

[Hippster]

Should be a ripper.
Don’t think Pies will risk Adams, Ginnivan or JDG as finals are assured and week off means you give these guys more time to play roles in September.
So that gives Blues a big chance. Sure they are missing Hewett, Kennedy and I doubt Cerra or Williams play.
But Blues have greater mid depth to cover this and the two big forwards.
Blues by a little.
