I'm like a long tailed cat in a room full of rocking chairs

Port by 11.

Im not at all nervous, which is strange for a final.

 

[RangaInTeal]

Got a sense of confidence and certainty this morning, have a genuine gut feel the torch may be handed over tonight, Danger to JHF and Cameron to Georgie. Think Sweet will be great Lachie Jones with Miles Burgman will turn a few more heads.

Think with a rest up, Trav and Chaz will be great.

My only fear, if we win Jed stays in the team.

300%

Maybe Hinkley has numbed us?

We win we are a HUGE chance, we lose and the Heat on Hinkley and the finals record we have been highlighting really gets attention drawn to it.

Win/Win really

 

[Alberton Proud]

Just win Farken

 

[TazD]

 

[Lefti93]

I don't know.

 

[Visenfest]

We are better than these pricks, and we should be going in expecting to win.

Ports by 17.

 

[chachi11]

Comfortably numb

 

[Shaucob_Burjan]

Forecast for a dry deck?

 

[YoungsterPA]

not sure at all where this comes from but I think we will win by 60+

 

[Nelso]

The equation is simple tonight.

Win and we have a chance to go all the way.

Lose and it is season over.

Time for our captain to stand up in a big game and lead the way.

 

[JayPea14]

It's a good feeling going into a final without too much care about the result

 

[JakeNeadeFan]

Hoping that this is the game that Rozee pulls his finger out and has a good game.

30 and 2+ goals please. And no missed tackles

 

[Handyandy]

Umpires worry me
Hope no29 isn’t umpiring
Scott is cunning as a shithouse rat
Suspect Mullin comes in to tag JHF

From their point of view they will need to break even in clearances, clog up the corridor, limit our rebound & turn it into a dour, low scoring defensive game to have any chance.
I don’t think they will want a shootout
They have more finals experience, a few stars, some dangerous forwards & I am sure Scott will have a few tricks up his sleeves
Tactically should be very interesting

 

[simba_]

no nerves at all, it's all about getting the job done, battling through the Cats and the Dogs (umpires), dismantling them once and for all in the last quarter

 

[Manhattan Bronx]

Was heading to the game, but mum who was going to babysit ended up in hospital, so I'm on duty tonight.

Last time she was in hospital we got smashed by Geelong.

Port by 26.

 

[chiwigi]

Not watching, gave my tickets away. I'm the worlds worst 'watch on TV person'.

We should win by 20.

I'll watch it after I know the score. Don't want to be Hinkleyed!

Even if we do win I expect JHF and Butters to be banned for responding to being assaulted by Geelong players.

[El_Scorcho]

We'll smash them. Not nervous at all about this one. Carn Ports

 

[JakeNeadeFan]

Rational part of me says that we are in better form and have a better team on paper.

Emotionally still scarred by failures in years gone past.

 

[WillemDaDrew]

I feel sick.
