Heading down to watch the game. Hoping the Bedas can bring home another Cup.

Anyone know what's happened to the Mailman?

Not much talk about the main game this week so here is my 2 cents worth.
I'm tipping the Tigers. My reasons are that they have beaten the Lions twice this year and both times at EP. The Lions have it all ahead of them as they have the recruits, have been hot favorites all year and are expected to salute. The tigers go in as the fairytale story. Win, lose or drawer we have come further than most predicted. That being said a lifting the cup is our minimum expectation.
Should be a cracker, can the Lions guns fire when the heat is on. Can the Lions contain Anstey & Phibbs. How much of a key is Big Fergus. Brett Collins is hitting his straps at the right time of the year is a huge wildcard and will stretcher man give another GF cameo performance.
So many questions and I guess come 5ishpm Sunday all will be answered
Either way congrats to both teams and I hope the game is a cracker and not one sided.

This Sunday could be a history-making day in more ways than one. Apart from St Bedes Mentone Tigers bid to become the first VAFA team to win C, B, A in successive years, it could also well be one of the last A Section Grand Finals to be played at Sportscover Arena.

Sorry Jase.
It will be announced either at/after the GF that VAFA and local council have negotiated for them to be there for at least the next 5 years.
You can pack up the Yellow tent and head home young fella - you tried.
Also, that 1987 team of the year placemat I bought off you is crap.

Who do you think will be the Jock Nelson Medal (best on ground in A Section Grand Final) winner on Sunday?

If it rains the Tiges will shit it in. If not it will be very tight.
Medal: Luke Wintle
Medal: Luke Wintle
I agree with you on the weather part BS.
But for the medal, i would say the old stager Mick Hazell to get the job done.
As stated above, if they play like they did last week, they will walk in.
Blumfield for the medal.
Seems that SBMT have no say in Sunday's outcome. If Collegians play well they will win, or so they seem to think. I'm sure Xav's had no say last week. Or had they run their race, had too many returning players who were under done and just made Collegians look good. May be Collegians form isn't as good as they think!
You're on the money there scottydog. It all depends on the game that Collegians bring. If they bring their best form, there is no side good enough to stop them. However, their form over the last 4 weeks has been very patchy (Xavs game aside). The first 5 minutes will tell the tale.
Thanks Penski, Glad that the dog is on the right scent.

To me where Collegians will lose it is that they are expected to win as its expected all of their guns will fire. in such a big game To be honest they did last week but they haven not done it back to back in too many games this year.
I think Collegians will follow sult as did UB and befores
StBs are hard,tough and when the chips are down they will dig deep.Collegians are classy and have more talent however StBs are ruthless.Bedes by 30 points
Future skipper of StBMT J.Tyqin will win the medal
Berty Collins to kick the first goal in the first and third quarters, whilst Brett Phibbs will kick the first goal in the second and fourth quarters....
Tigers to win by 23 points
Chipper Adkins to blast his team-mates
Should be an xcellent game

No worries. Was very, very hard this year - the team perhaps reflects a couple of favourites of mine (Shields for one, Clarke from Xavs, who didn't get one umpires vote). Very unlucky Matt Smith from Brighton, a couple of Beders, Curatolo, the list goes on...
