AFL 2017 First Semi Final, GWS Giants v West Coast Eagles 19:25 AEST : Spotless Stadium

[Altum Volantes]

However, a team from 3000 km's away has more supporters than them at their home ground....

You can't expect them to suddenly invent supporters once the finals roll around - every one of their die hard will be there tonight...there is just very little of them.

 

[Acinath]

You'll be the new kids to the Prelim level.

Not even worried about it, we bring the pressure we have most games this year and we'll be fine. We work harder than both these clubs.

If you watched the last two matches we played, Darling is a big part of why we are even here.

I thought a Melbourne supporter would understand we can't all be world beaters consistently.

He is consistent.
Consistently soft....

 

[RookiePick]

Feels like Cameron watched a lot of tape of the Eagles Bombers game.

Simmo taking a bath atm.

Hopefully Eags can dig in for some respect second half

 

[Kram]

Nah Browny throw yellow belly Jack into the ruck, 2 kicks to half time.

 

[Altum Volantes]

Why the **** does Ling need to SHOUT like that?

 

[Roobs321]

This is the first real chance we have had to see GWS host a finals against a side where its up to the Giants fans, Sydneysiders to fill the stadium.

2016
Away team to Sydney at ANZ.
Home prelim against the Dogs who were in there fairytail run. Alot flew up from Victoria to see the game.
2017
Away to the Crows.

Can any Sydneysiders inform us on the build ip to the game? Ads on TV, Newspaper, radio, prices etc.

A game next door at ANZ probably isnt helping.

Its all about growing and improving for the Giants. See what worked what didnt from this game and grow from that.

Yeah not a great day for it. Eels Final next door (one of the biggest Western Sydney clubs), Matildas this afternoon at Penrith(?). Wallabies also in Canberra.

 

[Smartest Brain]

Petrie forearm/elbow.

Doing an Alastair lynch?

 

[The Joker]

Havent heard of Micheal walters?.....covers lecrap so easily on both counts it's no 'joke'

Nope, like Fremantle, I've never heard of him!!!

 

[Kingfish73]

So depressing watching west coast playing in this final relying on dead eye dick kicking, retiring players from other clubs and umpiring. Put them away gws please...

 

[West Coast 06]

He is consistent.
Consistently soft....

So, like Melbourne?

 

[stax on the mull]

Hopefully GWS can kick a few early ones in the 3rd term so they can freshen up for next week in the last quarter.

 

[roscreasl98]

And? The swans would have been in the same situation at the same point in time.

No.
They had the Sth Melbourne connection.

League were giving away free tickets for tonight.

 

[HBF]

Deledio has been good tonight.

 

[roscreasl98]

So, like Melbourne?

No. The name Darling really suits him...

 

[Roobs321]

Not even worried about it, we bring the pressure we have most games this year and we'll be fine. We work harder than both these clubs.

Either way, will be a great opportunity for both clubs, and along with the other prelim, guaranteed new Grand Finalists compared to the last six seasons.

 

[Acinath]

Deledio has been good tonight.

Back to HF, great move for a guy who effectively missed a year of footy. This is where he's at his best.

 

[MrPortAdelaide]

dads army out there tonight

Poor bugger, you must be pissed your boys blew 5th on the ladder with terrible kicking.

[JVseven]

Worst year of finals ever.

 

[Franko Armani]

Sucked in Lachie

 

[Ok Boomer]

Is there anything worse than listening to Basil Zemplas while your team is getting smashed? I have yet to experience anything worse.

 

[HBF]

Great contested mark.
