Autopsy AFL 2024 First Qualifying Final - Swans v GWS Sat Sept 7th 3:20pm EST (SCG) - Teams in OP

[RedBloodBlackSwan]

Good luck GWS. Here’s to a cracking game.

I hope we both get to meet again in the GF.

Anyone recommend any good pubs in Sydney to watch this one, in cbd/rocks area with atmosphere etc.

Light Brigade in Paddington
East Village in Darlinghurst
Bat and Ball Hotel in Surry Hills
Nag’s Head in Glebe
Not sure of any good AFL pubs specifically in the CBD or The Rocks but the ones mentioned are all inner city.

 

[voorhees]

think this one will be a cracker with swannys pipping them in a arm wrestle up to the final quarter.. swan by 7p
Also looking foward to the Hogan show, man is awesome to watch when he goes into beast mode.

 

[Osho]

Not too confident. Defense can be gotten hold of. Reliance on Hogan up forward. Swans speedsters and movers are always a concern. Plus I had a few last night and feel grumpy and niggly today.

Pressure and ball movement will win the day. Like most games, I suppose.
Also hope they can be carefree, as I reckon Swans may have weight of expectations that can be exploited.

 

[RUNVS]

Not feeling remotely confident right now as the Swans have not been the same team since the midseason bye.

WTF is this Healy apologist piece for the SCG?

WTF is this Healy apologist piece for the SCG?

And whats weird is the stats backed up what everyone says they didn't dispel it at all.

It boiled down to, yeah it's their but it's not that bad.

Who cares anyway, the ground is different, embrace it and stop trying to claim it's not.

 

[MelbourneGWS]

Hopefully our 3-0 unbeaten streak against Sydney will be a more predictive statistic, than our overall 10 win - 18 loss record against the Swans.

WTF is this Healy apologist piece for the SCG?

What was it?

 

[Rod Stroker]

crowd looks low with 20 mins till the bounce?

 

[Rod Stroker]

Charcoal kit looks awesome

 

[Rod Stroker]

What was it?

Healy trying to justify that the SCG isn't a small ground.... when all the stats they showed reinforced that the SCG is the smallest ground

 

[Billy ray]

Charcoal kit looks awesome

They should be able to wear it in each finals game and should

[Rostos]

Over or under 172.5 points?

Get a load of the turnout....

Sydney is a football juggernaut

 

[Proud New Father of 3]

Over or under 172.5 points?

Under

The score will be 87 - 84

Marginal but yeh? 1-2m?

 

[Osho]

Dermie's lungs are legendary, holding his breath, and exhaling sounds for 3.5 minutes. Without feinting. Respect.

That outfit too. Someday told him it's pirate dressup day instead of a footy final.

 

[Delisted]

Such a 50/50. Leaning towards GWS maybe with Hogan firing.

 

[Plugger35]

Hopefully this game is a better contest than the first two finals and it goes down to the wire, these Sydney derbies usually do.

Just brewed up a virgin Aperol Spritz in support of the Giants
