EDFL Division 1 - 2012

after losing woodhouse and adam dennis before half time

What happened to these guys? Big loss for the Roy Boys if the injuries are bad.

 

[TigerFaithful]

Might be a long shot but Tullamarine can still make the top 4 on %..

Provided Northern beat Taylors Lakes (highly possible. RD 14- NS 8.16.64 db TL 12.7.79)
&
Tullamarine beat West Coburg

TL won't lose.

Winning margins of 170 and 84 against TL this year though...reasonably warm favourite

Yea, heard that on the commentary. Finals do funny things to teams though.

If there's only a kick or 2 the difference going into the last quarter I'll be backing TLFC.
Can you imagine if APW went out in straight sets, after the huge $$$'s they've spent. Anything other than a flag is a huge Disapointment and they've still got to get to the big dance. Got a feeling TLFC with knowing they can't just go out there and do their best as that won't get the job done, will leave NOTHING TO SPARE, no STONE UNTURNED to cause an upset. Unfortunately to reach the seemingly unreachable you've got to do things that you don't like or be proud of. Will be great to watch, plenty of fireworks, the way Finals footy should be
Congratulations to WC on getting to the GF,

Im tipping Airport West to run over Taylors Lakes quite comfortably, but then again as we have seen before, anything can happen in finals. AW may choke.....but i doubt it

AW V WC Grand Final

 

[TigerFaithful]

Haha Airport West.

TLFC have them covered!

Certainly have the runs on the board in this regard.

Do you want to make yourself a bit clearer on that? Are you saying T.Lakes are Thugs and play out-side the rules?

Not sure how I could be more clear.
I'm saying that over the past few years (against Tulla x2 atleast) they've certainly crossed lines.
I hope Taylors Lakes come to play footy and not go down the faux tough guy route..

Mate , TL will throw everything they've got at APW.
I hope it's one hell of a tough contest and TL keep APW honest by doing anything they need to do to get into a very winnable GF.
It's a Pre-Lim final Mate, lines will be crossed.

And twice against Tulla, give me a break. Hard at the footy and Tulla come off 2nd best. Maybe they should go a little harder themselves and the opposition might be on the receiving end for a change. The Harder you go the luckier you get

All's fair in Love & War

Don't make me laugh..
One was snotting an u18s kid off the ball a couple of years ago. The other was Manton taking out Marcy (who went harder at the ball) this year, whilst copping a flogging from Tulla.
Honestly if it came down to cheap stuff I'd back APW to more than handle themselves, ask Hadfield how it worked against Marby a few years ago..

Who said anything about "Cheap stuff"
We'll see Sunday. The White Collar over paid afl has beens against a pack of local boy's ready to rumble and have nothing to lose. APW record against that type of team not too good this year

Not sure what else can be taken from the following..

As for Airport Wests record against that type of team..
Taylors Lakes 3.9-27
def. by
Airport West 31.11-197

Airport West 22.10-1
def.
Taylors Lakes 9.2. 56
Obviously anything can happen on the day though.

assuming you're talking about when they lost against hadfield. the next time they played hadfield they smashed them. hard to see airport west losing. i would be cheering for any other team to upset them, just not taylors lakes.[/quote]

So basically you aren't confident, but if its close at 3/4 time, you will back TL

And is this saying that TL should go out and belt AW, because TL at their best isn't going to beat AW ??
