Hopefully the club is vigorously petitioning the AFL for a Friday or Saturday game.

 

[Jumping Jack]

Sportsbet have Geelong the shortest / and most likely winner from week one of finals.

Whatever we can take from that I don’t know?

Brisbane and Richmond. But I think it will be the usual Fri night, Sat, Sat night, Sunday.

They said on the broadcast today that a Thursday final is apparently locked in.

Not sure technically 12 days from incident would be the thursday night so maybe ruled out unless we get a friday night QF.

Being a massive stage cats vs pies game i reckon the tv networks will want it friday night anyway..sys vs melb probably gets thurs night.

Carlton you had one job and you choked! I would have preferred freo but at our best we should beat collingwood.

Yeah it is one of the reasons why gil wanted a pre finals bye.

If the first final was Sat i could get to it but if it is Friday nope no chance

Yeah I'm with you... I could only do a Saturday

 

[CatToTheFuture]

I agree. Hence my post. I think we'll be too good but a big final in front of a rabid Pies crowd will be a good tune up. Want to see how a few of our guys handle that heat.

I'm far more concerned that if we win it would be the only serious footy we've faced since the first half of the Dogs game in July.

Why are they so invested in a Thursday night game? Horrible timeslot.

Fri night, Sat Arvo, Sat night and Sun arvo are the perfect times.

Different strokes for different folks i guess because i cant stand Sunday arvo. Id take a Thursday slot over Sunday everytime.

In 2020 Port were minor premiers and we played them on the Thursday night.

Last year 2nd v 3rd (Demons v Lions) was the Thursday night game.

I think there’s a big chance we are scheduled for the Thursday, biggest night of the week for TV ratings and AFL will justify it by saying minor premiers deserve the longest break to a semi final if they lose.

Yeah but COVID meant half full games anyway

Prediction:
Thursday night - Brisbane vs Richmond
Friday night - Geelong vs Collingwood
Saturday afternoon - Fremantle vs Western Bulldogs
Saturday night - Melbourne vs Sydney

If Melbourne get a Saturday arvo final I’ll spew

 

[CatToTheFuture]

So Collingwood don't have the greatest record against top 8

Brisbane should be paying $3.50+ on their formline

jeez that is very disrespectful to a collingwood side that has won 12/13 of there last matches. they should be neck and neck with us especially infront of 70,000 screaming pies fans at the MCG.

They've played 8 games against the Top 8 and won 3.

We've played 8 and won 6.

About right I reckon.

Easiest interstate final for quite some time, Richmond have the easiest game of the lot imo esp how well they play the Gabba

i rate them a bit higher than you do. i think this is a mini grand final preview. the winner of this one will go on to the GF and probably win it. I think this game is going to be colossal.

Tbh I think Brisbane pip the Tigs

yep i am backing the lions. Richmond are good but not what they once were.

Nobody has mentioned a Thursday night final. Which 2 teams, if any, get that this season?

I'm predicting Fremantle vs Bulldogs for Thursday night if they really want to use that schedule
