Preview Grand Final – Richmond Tigers vs GWS Giants, Saturday 28th September, MCG, 2.30pm

[ForeverHardcore]

De Boer personally I would throw at prestia

Running Kelly head to head through cotchin he didn't have much impact last weekend.

Davis - Lynch
Corr. - Riewoldt
Taylor - Martin

Martin is the big one but will play a lot down forward they will try to isolate him on haynes deep and take him away from the play.

Houli not sure who goes to him from a defensive forward matchup but its pretty crucial to shut him down. Adam Kennedy looked very annoying last week not sure about a defensive forward probably too left field but he needs to be stopped lots of drive from half back

Astbury - Cameron
Grimes - Finlayson
????? - Himmelberg I suppose is the interesting one Cameron gets up the ground a fair bit so Astbury probably hands him over a fair bit. But Richmond are a bit short without rance so its a matchup that could be exploited.


Genuinely think the giants can win.

Astbury will play on Harry h
Broad to finlayson
Grimes to Cameron
Vlastuin to Toby Greene
Houli with a d Lloyd tag
Short on Daniels

Gonna be won and lost amongst this bunch
Good luck Giants! Gonna be a belter

 

[AuntyBlindEye]

Very happy you guys made the GF. It's about time with how good you blokes have been for the past few years. Very well deserved. What you did to the pies was fantastic. Good luck and hope you all enjoy the day.

 

[Ray Donovan]

I'd expect it to be Astbury to Himmelburg, Broad to Cameron, Grimes to Greene, Vlastuin to Finlayson. Broad, Grimes and Vlastuin will swap opponent a lot depending on who is on the ground

Broad to Cameron would consider that interesting at best no respect for the Coleman medalist lol

I think your match ups are most likely

Don’t think we will tag Houli- just rely on combined pressure in the forward half to limit his time and space

 

[Land of the Giants]

Coniglio's unselfish decision to rule himself out will undoubtedly inspire the team to try even harder. How lucky we are he decided to stay.

We have a wonderful club and culture that is second to none.

 

[Ichabod Noodle]

that the club had enough faith in, and regard for, Cogs to make his own call on playing is one of the reasons I love this club.

that Cogs put the team ahead of personal glory and ruled himself out, is one of the reasons why I love him as a player and a person.

Good luck, hope you smash them.

 

[Gigantic]

Gutted for Cogs. Have so much respect for him for being able to make the selfless decision.

 

[Schlurp]

Feel for Cogs, Ward and your other injured players who won't experience a Grand Final this year. While some of our outs, Rance, Graham had that experience in 2017, it would still burn them missing out this week. Respect to the injured warriors on both sides and let's hope they get their chances again in future years.

 

[Munich]

The whole of Aus is behind you.

Get it done!

 

[Schlurp]

The whole of Aus is behind you.

Not quite. But hope it's a great GF.

Correct. They changed it after the last draw.

I heard Daisy Pearce played in a VFL extra time golden score game for an extra 45 minutes in windy Craigyburn.

 

[Simmofreo]

Correct. They changed it after the last draw.

Well thank goodness for that. Makes so much more sense

This week feels like it is taking forever

 

[The Victorian]

It looks like your wearing white too

 

[Colonial]

It looks like your wearing white too

Ridiculous. There's no clash.

 

[Ichabod Noodle]

Correct. They changed it after the last draw.

thank god for that. I was just saying the other day - hope it's not a draw because there's no way we could afford to do this 2 weeks running.

hopefully it won't come to that anyway.

 

[KevDawg]

I’ll bet the umps are wearing yellow though.

 

[Groin guru]

Come on giants. Smash those pr*cks.

I know team selection still to take place but wonder the chances of Lids and Big Daws going round in the retiring player cavalcade before the game.
