Preview Geelong v Richmond 2020 Grand Final Sat Oct 24 @ Gabba

[GeelongFTW]

I have a wedding to go to while the game is on. Kill me now.

I wouldn't attend my own wedding if it was scheduled at the same time as the Grand Final.

 

[Ron The Bear]

His he injured?

Caddy has broken down twice this year, including the last h&a game in Adelaide. Suspect he is fit to play but we have lost trust in his body.

 

[ChappyUK]

Unchanged. Parsons and Zuthrie unlucky.

That, and he’s a spud.

Love the smiles

I’m a lifelong cats supporter from Brisbane with 4 tickets to the big dance. Unfortunately due to an illness that requires precautionary quarantine, we are no longer able to go. I’m looking to pass these on to a fellow diehard supporter from Brisbane of either side. Please text me before calling so I know who I’m speaking to! I paid $400 per ticket and am only looking to recoup my money, so $1608.95 including booking fee.

One more sleep to go!

 

[cats_09]

His he injured?

Fallen out of favour

Know how a reason he left us was because he wanted more midfield time or thought he deserved more midfield time and didn't want to be just a forward - things didn't exactly eventuate that way and Richmond still view him primarily as a forward (ave 2.1 goals in his second season at Richmond)

Funnily enough it's his former Suns teammate, Lynch, who's really had an impact on Caddy's spot in the side. Caddy was omitted last year and found himself in the VFL last and almost playing off the back line as the Tigers wanted him to find versatility to his game as he wasn't going to be weekly selection up forward alongside Lynch & Riewoldt

He played round 18 but the Tigers then opted for Chol in the QF Lynch returned from injury

While he still has 2 years left on his current contract, if the right trade offer presented itself I wouldn't be totally surprised to see him at a 4th club

also has 2 flags. Doesn’t make him a great player.

If he’s so great why does he keep getting dropped?

That sucks so bad. What terrible luck. Hope you are feeling better and they win it for you nonetheless!

Zuth is an emergency - may get a late call up...

 

[Play it Sam]

WTF is that panel voting on the Norm Smith?
Lauren who? Pete Ryan who?
That's who gets rounded up because they can be there?
Just BS beggars belief.

 

[Ron The Bear]

If he’s so great why does he keep getting dropped?

He lost his leap, and there are better options for the wings. He really doesn't have a position ATM. Has been out of the team three times this season, all due to injury.

Was dropped last year in order to be re-tooled for the wing, just as Shai Bolton

Leigh Matthews (3AW, Chairperson), Lauren Arnell (ABC & AFLW), Malcolm Blight (SEN SA), Damian Barrett (AFL.com.au) and Peter Ryan (The Age) will be the five people to decide the best player in the Toyota AFL Grand Final.

As a reminder, the Norm Smith Medal cannot be shared between two players.

In the event of a tie, the tie is broken as follows:
- Number of three votes received
- Number of two votes received
- If still unbroken, votes cast by the Chairperson will break the tie.

Dunno. Ask Menegola or Blicavs.
