Preview 2018 AFL Grand Final - West Coast v Collingwood

[010203]

Who did senior analyst - not anal cyst - David King select?

King picked West Coast by a point. Gerard Whateley on the other hand has tipped Collingwood to having picked against West Coast in their two finals to this point and got both wrong.

I am sure that Collingwood beat Melbourne on Queens Birthday quite convincingly. All of these comparisons mean nothing until the game.

Yeah not much, but I was just countering the poster lol

Mayne straight to Gov tomorrow. Bank it.

Taking a huge risk with that prediction.

Worthy of its own thread.

Indeed it's not like they have any other options lol. Same with Kennedy and Darling.

Not looking for glory. Just sharing the inside word.

Here's hoping that the Eagles are LaRusso and the Magpies are the Kobra Kai guy

I might borrow a leaf out of the eagles posters book here but we actually out scored them over the Home and away season. Again great forward line, we have our own though. Eagles have a better defence line for line. I’d have our midfield over theirs, forward’s are equally as potent for mine. My worry is the resting ruckman they may throw down forward. Don’t think we have a matchup for that.

West coast have the best forward line in the competition, bar none. Total points for is a combination of factors, and encompasses far more than just the talent and functionality of the forwardline. Not to mention we missed half a season from Kennedy and Ryan and a quarter of the season from Darling.

I hope the umps don't take centre stage and stuff up whats shaping to be a great game

Yeah yeah so we’ve heard. Take Kennedy out of that fwd line and I’d take ours all day.

Logic - 'our forwards are better if you don't have your best forwards'

Have I ever stated it isn’t better? What I’m getting at is that while rating you’re own you severely underrate the oppositions. We have scored all year, I am confident we can do so again. Adelaide thought similar to you lot last year. Look how that worked out

I don't underestimate the Collingwood forward line at all. Let's stop putting words and another things in each other's mouths, shall we?

Even the weather is ******.

Definate flat feeling surrounding the GF...nowhere near the excitement / anticipation of last year.

I think the media have even conceded.

Should have been Eagles vs Tigers and the footy world knows it.

And the biggest w***er of the thread award goes to Ocker

All your mates have bud. You’ve jumped in at the end. Kennedy makes it tick and is clearly the best forward on the ground. No debate here. To rate Ryan, Rioli, lecras and Cripps head and shoulders above what we are sending it is pure arrogance. It’s been done to death though so let’s move on.
Sitting behind the goals city end tomorrow, can’t wait.

 

[Hagla]

They are but interestingly the there's 3 times the money coming in for the Eagles.

Bookies don't operate like this, no way are they banking on the Pies getting up and risking a massive loss if the Eagles win. If there was 3 times the money coming in for the Eagles they'd be favourites.

 

[MotlopMagic]

Mayne straight to Gov tomorrow. Bank it.

Which is why I’ve loaded up at 36’s for Mayne to kick the first goal. Great value!

Right, so take out the best player from our forward line and then yours is better? Sounds to me like you're trying to say WC have the better forward line

Then why'd the tigers lose last week?

Just trolling now. Best of luck.

I think we have all learnt the mistakes of 2016.

Even then, it's questionable. Darling was the form forward of the comp for the first half of the season, has found his touch, and was instrumental in beating Collingwood two weeks ago. The Pies forward line is decent but it's not going to be the key to their success. It will be their midfield and negating supply to our forwards.
