Review 2014 VFL Grand Final - Footscray Bulldogs v Box Hill Hawks, 21 September 2014, 2.15pm @ Etihad Stadi

[Bonscott1980]

Jezz what a side,looking good

 

[The Jet From Poowong]

WOW.
That is a powerful looking 2nds team

I am going along to the Prelim on Sat and the VFL GF on Sun and am looking forward to this game as much as the prelim on Sat

 

[The Cleaner]

Ripping line-up.

Although I can't help but think sometimes we get a better team performance with a few more Box Hill guys in the mix.

Perhaps someone should post the alternate line-up if the unthinkable happens on Saturday and the unqualified guys sit it out on Sunday.

 

[The Jet From Poowong]

If the side runs out as named, gee the interchange is going to be tough.
Murphy Lock Mirra Isles you would think are certainties

 

[Bumpswithagrin]

OBrien? Wasn't he gone for the season with his hammy?

I was very surprised to see him in the footage from training the other day kicking goals! Whatever they used to fix his hammy, get Cyril onto it NOW!!!

 

[cryptor]

This could be an absolute blood bath if the team lines up as named. Some very good names in the Box Hill side who would all be looking to put in a star performance to get a possible call up for the next week.

 

[Thaihawk]

Let's hope Cyril gets a good run, and comes through unscathed.

 

[Whistling Hawk]

It's a long shot but does anyone know how to get the game live in NSW?

Get someone in Vic to sit an HD camera in front of their ABC telecast and Skype it to you.

In all seriousness it'll be available on iView later that day so just have yourself a little BigFooty blackout for a few hours.

Cyril could retire with the most extreme VFL record of all time. 1 game, 1 premiership.

I thought the cited team was conditional on us beating port the day before.

It is. I'm hoping the Hawks have three wins left in them this year.

 

[grumbleguts]

Well it's the team then.

The other way of course is to follow the game via radio/online at www.3wbc.org.au (from 1pm on Sunday) - which have called all/most the Box Hill Hawks game since 2008.

That should give you your fix until the iView replay goes up later in the evening.

 

[The Cleaner]

Historic moment beckons for CrowdedHouse too as he prepares to unleash his first "Delicious!".

 

[Kiss of Life]

Did anyone who went last year remember whether they were allowed to run onto the ground afterwards?

 

[The BIG X]

Did anyone who went last year remember whether they were allowed to run onto the ground afterwards?

If 'they' means the crowd - the answer is YES

 

[stemline]

Pretty tough on some of the Box Hill players, having to prepare as if they're going to play in the VFL GF, but really waiting to see if Hawthorn win or not. Also hard for Box Hill side to prepare match-ups/strategies when they don't even know what the side will look like until the night before. I guess Footscray are in the same boat to an extent, not knowing what the Box Hill line-up will contain.

 

[Randy Campbell]

How much does the result of the Hawthorn game change the Box Hill line up or does it?

It means we wont play Sizzle and probably cannot play McEvoy, Sewell and Schoe.

Could the sub from Saturday play Sunday?

 

[The Cleaner]

This game's just taken on even more significance. Feels like there are some genuine spots up for grabs in an AFL Grand Final.

 

[striker]

Hey guys, I assume it's all general admission and tickets sold at the gate?

Fortunately we don't have to find out.
