"THE CLUB with everything to lose versus the one with nothing to lose."

Honestly have nfi what Damian Barrett is getting at here. So the club that won a grand final 2 years ago and is lining up to do it again has everything to lose while the one that the AFL manufactured and compromised the entire league for years in order to establish has nothing to lose?

It’s funny, I saw the headline and thought he meant the other way round. Tigers have 2017 in the bag already and we were written off mid this season, this would be a bonus premiership for us. On the other hand, Giants have continuously disappointed despite being gifted many talented players and need this premiership to be relevant in NSW, so more pressure on them. Different way of looking at things I guess!
 
Nervous. Got my standing room ticket, so I'm coming down for the game. Yeah!!:rainbow: :rainbow:

The Giants are looking at playing a heap of injured/underdone guys. That will come back to bite when we just grind them down.

But in some ways this is good for me. I really do like the Giants. As a Canberran they genuinely have committed to Western Sydney and Canberra, and they have been working hard to create a footy culture. So although they are still plastic, they're working at becoming a genuine footy club.

Anyways, we'll hammed them from Giants and they'll be Gnomes by end game. Then it'll be a good time.

But then the very next sentence is this:
The club with a 134-year history against the one with just eight years of AFL life.

So if he did imply that its GWS then did he just randomly switched the order in the next sentence? I guess we'll never know but either way we can be safe in the knowledge that he is a hack "journalist"
 
Was going to make a comment about one of our players singing a song with the post-game band but had to look up who was playing.

Dean Lewis? Never heard of him.

Tiges by 5 and to be “gifted the game” by the umps after losing the free kick count 22-5.
There is going to be an embarrassing amount of people left over for the post game, especially if the unthinkable happens
 
have seen some pies fans on social media wanting us to win lol, who woulda thought

lunch will get the norm smiff. 6 goals 20 disposals 5 tackles and will break someones ribs with one of those huge bumps
 
I'm not even nervous. Which means we probably lose lol I don't think my heart could have coped with Pies Tigers GF. Now that it's GWS I know i'll be fine either way.
We just have to make sure our midfield isn't smashed off the park by those hard nosed mids lelnorf style.
I feel exactly the same way... it's a strange calm where normally I'd be in full blown nervous shit panic mode already.

It's only Monday I guess.

Tbh still hasn't quite sunk in we are in another GF!

True that. Anyone that makes big black and white statements to stir things up and make a name for themselves shouldn’t be called a serious journalist.

get the best young players in australia - put them in a team and fast forward eight years.

GWS are now a good team? what a surprise! wow what an achievement. well done giants.

:rainbow:
 
Never have i heard of a team making a grand final has nothing to lose. Any reporter sprouting that s**t is barracking that one team loses so he can write more s**t and sell more stories.
I’ve been reading posters on here saying the same thing. The reality is both teams have a premiership to lose and anything else stated is just bs.
