Preferred 2022 Grand final matchup

[beerbandit]

Geelong v Collingwood

Payback 11 years in the making. Cats due for a few tears on GF day.

They’ve had a lot of those

They’ve had a lot of those

Not as many as us

Fox/7 need to get Whateley on our screens. The guy could be the next Bruce/Cometti if given the chance.

Has a way with words.

Best thing about the new broadcasting deal is fox can use their own commentary team for all games. Whateley and Hudson are by far the best commentary duo in the country.

Wheatley doesn't commentate Fox games does he?

He does SEN I believe. Would be a shoe in for Fox Footy though. Absolute genius commentator.

From most preferred to least preferred:

Brisbane vs Sydney (guaranteed non Vic premier)
Geelong vs Sydney (the two best remaining teams)
Brisbane vs Collingwood (underdog grand final)
Geelong vs Collingwood (honestly a boring match up)

I suspect it'll be Geelong vs Sydney.

 

[maxiboy238]

1)Geelong vs Sydney
Best teams going at it

2)Brisbane vs Sydney
-I think it’s time for a non-vic grand final but the build especially will be low key a bit of buzzkill since no vic team playing

3)Brisbane vs Collingwood 20 year anniversary rematch

4)
Geelong vs Collingwood
Would probs be good for Victoria

Wheatley doesn't commentate Fox games does he?

He doesn’t currently but as part of the fox team you’d hope he will at some stage.

Brisbane v Sydney would be a fantastic win for the AFL and its people.

What an odd view. The 2011 Grand Final was one of the most entertaining Grand Finals of the modern era.

As much as I dislike Geelong and Collingwood I don’t think you can say those 2 playing each other would be boring. The build up would be off the charts while if the game was half as good as their QF we’d be in for a great spectacle.
I would leave the country straight after the game however.

Geelong Sydney best contest. Brisbane Sydney the teams I want to be there.

Yes, because the Collingwood/Geelong qualifying final was a one-sided snore fest.

What an odd view. The 2011 Grand Final was one of the most entertaining Grand Finals of the modern era.

And our game last week was an all time classic. What are some people sniffing?

 

[biggiemediums]

Obviously I want Pies in there. Preferably against Brisbane.

The reason: Geelong have had more recent success then Brisbane. I could stomach it better. Don't particularly think Geelong fans need another flag so soon. *em.

 

[domus]

Collingwood have had a crack at both Geelong and Sydney over the last month, and guess who lost both?

Brilliant logic. Pies beat Lions twice in 2002 but lost the GF. We beat Carlton three times in 1970 before losing the fourth clash of the year in the grand final.

Hearing that Lions song after experiencing 2002 and 2003 would be horrific.

 

[Evolved1]

Geelong v Collingwood would be the most entertaining matchup.

Geelong v Sydney would be a good game too, if less aesthetic. I can't see Brisbane winning against Collingwood or Sydney, so prefer they don't make it.

Whateley/Hudson is 120mins of old school commentating.

They are animated, focus on the game and quick witted. Literal opposite to Ch7 commentary; who are dull, focus on everything but the game and have no wit between the lot of them.

Also jabronis like Jobe, Betts, Burgoyne and Jones literally can't communicate. They can't construct sentences. A joke of a team.

Absolutely would!

But the revenge if we win!

2011 was good for 3 quarters but we ran out of steam in the last

More like the cats went up another gear...

You guys flicked the switch after 3QT

4. Geelong vs Collingwood. We’ve seen it in 2011 which is more famous for the entertainment from Meatloaf on a wet first Saturday in October than the actual game unless you’re a Cats fan. Both teams met a few weeks ago in one of the matches of the season. Also rematches of 1937 and 1952 which Geelong were triumphant in both.

Also rematches of 53 (Coll win), 30 (Coll win) and 25(Gee win) - a rematch this year would be a new record for the most number of grand finals between two teams (already hold the record for most number of finals against each other)

How on earth is Geelong and Collingwood a boring matchup?
They played one of the all time great finals games last week……
