Game Day 2023 Grand Final: Lions v Pies ! (Port hummin still an option in here )

[Hearts to hearts]

If Collingwood lose and the BLWS vs COLA is close one, then the ethics dept at the AFL will engineer a way for the BLWS to get up.

100,000 at the G the following week will be too much moolah for the establishment to pass up, even if it means neglecting their favourite franchise..

We all know it will happen.

Engineering a way for the Swans not to win? Their heads would explode at the dissonance.

Also they would fill the MCG with Collingwood playing against anyone this year.

If it is to be Pies v Blues, I wonder if they’d consider a one off policy change to give club members first go at tickets - it would be a nightmare otherwise (and probably anyway).

They should have gotten ice spice to perform

Well he's presenting the coach's medal, so don't rule it out.

I overheard someone in the AFL suggesting that if it was a carlton vs pies semi that it would be one of the biggest games ever. Just off the top of my head I can think of at least 100 bigger grand finals and 200 odd pre lim finals

Which ones?

 

[Hojuman]

Dropping John Noble, that’s a very big call.

And playing Cox ? Esp.with the forecast.

Ginnivan sub. I’d have dropped Hoskin Elliott and kept Noble in, and plenty of fans would have dropped Lipinski first, but we’ll see. He’s an emergency so I guess they might have a late change.

Noble has averaged 20.4 disposals a game this season versus Hoskin-Elliott, 12.2. Very strange decision in that context. In my opinion Noble has had a much better season that Hoskin-Elliott. But what would I know?

 

[czero]

I am shocked about noble. Thats a mistake. Unless its some kind of late emergency play.

 

[amaz199]

Noble out is interesting but he can't kick. I can kind of see why.

Can't afford to play Cox. Be some late changes once it starts pouring about 7 p.m.

Funny buggers ? Keeping the Go Deez guessing ?

Dees - 17 points
Swans - 8 points ( with assistance )
Giants - 23 points
Lions - hopefully the blowout !

Couldn’t give a rat’s arse who wins, I’d like Collingwood, Carlton, Pooort and St Kilda to lose.

The only consolation to a Carlton win is the prospect of a Coll v Carlton knockout final decided in controversial circumstances.

 

[Kanga Glory]

Pies
Swans
Brisbane
Gws

 

[Forever North]

Huge for Collingwood, lose and they're pretty much ****ed for finals. Tipping the D's who are slowly building.
Hope Carlton beat Swans who were basically given 2 extra wins via dubious means......again. Can't stand them.
Reckon Saints are going ok and will just get over the line.
Port were 'Premiers' in the middle of the season and have kind of faded lately from that level of performance so Lions for me.

 

[Rod Stroker]

he's out because he can't coach, lost the players.

 

[Mav]

if the same rain that hit Adelaide this morning hits the MCG at game time it's going to be akin to that game we played in Cairns.

 

[Mav]

I heard he made the other players cry.

 

[Liam Boy]

I heard they tried to give him specific advice on improving his game and he started rattling off all the KPIs he was reaching
