First poster to smuggle me in a halfway decent coffee wins a prize.

I'm not joking

From all accounts, not the only time you have gone a bit premmo

Giants grand final

[Southern Sun]

If Flanders is still being rested I'd go Rogers for holman with any of holman, rosas or Lombard as sub.

 

[Mini GF]

This is such a big game.
Absolutely huge game
And it starts at 1230pm……

I’m still so nervous about this season. 9 does not go into 8…

We only need one win with our percentage to lock in a finals spot. I'd certainly wouldn't want it to come down to the last round. If we beat giants we are in.

 

[sunsofanarchy]

I'm excited to see Davies v [PLAYERCARD]Tom Green[/PLAYERCARD]. If he can draw that contest and have Rowell and Anderson go to work we'll see some good looks, think TG had 16 clearances earlier this year

To calm you down ( credit due : washing bedshed is not easy in BF) , could end up a draw which your weather forecast ladder position guy did not predict. A lost to both side is not ideal.

Midweek game against essendon after Port(EFA not this game) game also drain your energy if you did not get the result you want.

Again Port Luko at Adelaide might well be the curse of death.

 

[JRyan23]

Biggest game in GC history. Win and a massive chance at a top 4 spot, lose and could miss finals.

If we lose against GWS, the Dons game will be our saving grace. It crazy though, any other year and we would already have a spot locked in

We're as close as we could possibly be without having already secured a spot in the finals. Win this one against the Giants and we're in because GWS aren't going to make up the >11% (100+ points) that's required to over take us in their last game of the season against the Saints.

We play Essendon after Port not after the giants. Luko was injured in the Freo game so he may not even play. We should account for Essendon at home and thats all we need, possibly beating GWS and/or Port will be a bonus

 

[Iva Bigun]

It will be a massively pro Suns crowd ( not always the case) so as long as the boys get off to a strong start we should be ok

 

[Yellow Feathers]

We need to win this week. No excuses.

 

[thurls64]

All the next three games are winnable being at home helps our chances with the orange boys

 

[SandyToes]

Managing Stringer and Greene are the priorities

 

[KaySwizzle]

We need to win this week. No excuses.

We don’t need to. But winning basically gets us into finals already, or takes a lot of pressure off at least.

Though winning is needed for us to make top 4. And Giants know they need to win this or they risk sliding out of the 8.

Both teams have everything to play for. Hopefully we learned every lesson required from our match earlier in the year and can get a massive win for this club.

 

[lommy]

Kinda hope we lay off the “expansion cup” chat this week, need to lock in

 

[The Kings Ransom]

Hopefully hogan misses again for gws although sounds like he might play.

There’s going to be so many massive 1 v 1 matchups.

Collins - Hogan
Mac - Cadman
Adams - Riccardi
Uwland - Stringer
Powell - Greene
Jeffrey - Brown
Noble - Jones
Davies - Green
Witts - Briggs
King - Taylor
Long - Idun


The GWS team on paper is clearly better than the one we played earlier this year with Taylor and Coniglio back, Stringer now in form, Cadman in form.

Going to be a seriously tough game. But then again, that’s what finals is about.

 

[Colonial]

You don’t deserve this.

 

[cootagc]

Stringer likely out this week.

 

[lommy]

Stringer likely out this week.

Kingsley also said Hogan in doubt, which is contradictory to what he said last night on 360…
