Game Day Around The Grounds - 2nd Semi Final

[thylacine60]

I didn't really pay too much attention to gws winning form until recently.

Good pressure and slick ball movement. Very well balanced side with plenty of solid talent.

Amazing what they've done with jesse hogan who looked like he was going no where.

Should be an exceptional game next week against the filth.

absolutely

How often do two top four teams go out in straight sets?

 

[Accidental genius]

3 and a half games of footy left..........

your math is second to none...

 

[F_therest]

Any meat on the bone that Giants have had a bit of a magic carpet ride in the finals? Saints and Port easiest sides in it or do they make them look ordinary?

Bit of both?

Bit of both but GWS have been in good form for around 2 months with a slight lapse period.

They look fit and full of confidence. They also have their best 22 available.

Playing better than us currently, we've played quite conservatively the last 1.5 games, GWS still playing with aggressive ball movement. We've played better opponents though.

and most weeks he makes comments about them. Adam sounds like a great guy and an excellent coach

Hoping we do play on Friday night.

 

[thylacine60]

definite block

 

[Opium]

Does tonight's result affect when we play?

Great decision

that's the rumour

 

[Dadda Dave]

Jobe just went with the “Port Adelaide Giants!!”

Jab is probably cooked from being in the back shed too often in his playing days .

 

[gbatman]

Port have no pressure or closing speed around stoppages.

 

[HarryFlashman]

Jeez that was nice by Cogs

 

[Opium]

How's Rozee going? Should we still have taken him still over Walsh??

 

[JamisonRun40]

Man watching ABC news and I've started to tear up again watching the scenes and the final two goals.

 

[RedFury]

How did Port win so many in a row with such a crap defence.

Tim’s mate - but not a listener

GWS have dominated but have not put Port away.

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

Does tonight's result affect when we play?

I'm not sure why it would, but some are saying yes. Both of these teams will want a 7 day break and we would get a 7 day break at least, but the other consideration is that Collingwood are the minor premiers and they wouldn't want a 7 day break when the GF opposition would get an 8 day break.

So 6 or 7 day break for GWS or Port vs Pies potentially having one less day off than their GF opponent. Let's see who lobbies harder.

dixon to retire tomorrow surely........

 

[KohPhi]

your math is second to none...

Certainly is..
I'm one of the 3 in every 2 people that struggle with math.

 

[Revenant1995]

Games not over, and anything can happen, but I reckon the 'sack Hinkley' threads are probably seeing a bit of action atm....

 

[gbatman]

This looks better by port

 

[SolGoodman]

The Power showing some fight, might actually have a game on our hands.

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

I'd favour GWS to upset Collingwood at the G over Port. Hope they get up.

Stronger defence, stronger forward line, stronger midfield IMO.
