Game Day AFL 2024 Preliminary Final - Swans v Port Fri Sept 20th 7:40pm EST (SCG)

[SBD Gonzalez]

Port I think will take advantage of it early.

Your mates call you Nostradamus?

Hopefully they call me $1000 richer after this game... Seriously, though, only Geelong and Melbourne have "comprehensively" beaten away preliminary finalists, this decade, and Melbourne played their winning prelim in Perth. Usually the away prelim finalist wins, or the home prelim finalist barely scrapes through.

Sounds credible.

Look I don’t doubt there’s powerful arguments for and against either team. That’s what’s so tantalising. No way I’d be putting money on this one either way.

Port by 22. Got a feeling they're going to win it all

Interesting but ultimately meaningless stat time

None of the 4 prelim final teams have a positive record in finals over the last decade.
2015-2024 incl

Port 3-6
Geelong 10-10
Brisbane 7-7
Sydney 6-9

Although, equally meaninglessly, our record specifically in Prelims is very good.

 

[Cam Payne]

I reckon Port shot their bolt last week and won't turn up tonight. Swans by 36.

Heeney to catch fire for 5-8 minutes and be completely unstoppable. Game might be an arm wrestle for the rest of the game.

 

[The King!]

Either way the odds are stupid
