Preview 2024 Second Elimination Final: Western Bulldogs v Hawthorn, 6 September 2024, 7.40pm @ MCG

Sicily tag most likely

With the idea likely being don't let Sicily get a free jump at it so there 3 talls can go to work. This is nothing that Sam wouldn't be expecting. If it's wet then the task will be bring it to ground or kill it at all cost.

That is not a lot of finals experience, we have almost half the amount of players with finals experience than the next most

I’m not sure what that means. I just checked Gold Coast’s list and I’m pretty sure they have no one that’s played a final compared to 12 of our starting 18 players. I only count 14 players on the dogs last listed team that have played finals also.

It’s not like a lot more of our players lack finals experience than theirs.

I mean just off the bat you're missing Richards, Williams and Vandermeer who all played finals.

Is this confirmed anywhere else?

I counted Richards. Just forgot to underline him.

So it’s 16 players with finals experience to 12. That’s not a mind blowing difference.

Josh Ward has been given the chance to make himself a legend. 35 possessions 8 clearances and 2 goals in an elimination final. Come on son!

 

[OhhhhhCyril]

Correct call with Ward in.
Gets his chance to really shine. I believe we got this

Do you think we can add a couple more goals just to really solidify the status?

 

[Flukey!]

Like for like really.
Logical change.

Go well Wardy.

Cometh the moment! A new look ward about to enter the side.

 

[Blackhawk42]

He might play on Newk

They'd be wasting a midfield spot if they did that IMO.

They'd bank on Bont, Treloar, Libba and Richards winning that engine room battle.

Better for us that Sicily is the one clamped. If necessary he can go forward and exploit that match up.
