2010 NGFNL Grand Final

Sale City - $1.65
Rosedale - $1.85
Draw - (After 4 quarters) - $40.00

I can't really expect a close margin in this game. I feel if either team wins, it will be by at least 4-5 goals
 
Yeah I expect the same Dylza, it won't be a close match neither side don't play in that regard and if it is a close match there scores will be in the low 100s.

Hey Big Cigar, being a Churchill man and all I would have thought you would be against the mindset of picking players for only the final game of the year after not playing multiple weeks for your side beforehand....sorry a bit of a cheap blow.
 
Injuries are a completely different deal Nugget, Mitch Dowse would have been one of the first names picked last year if he was available for the Grand Final.

Where the hell can I get a piece of the $1.65 on City?
 
I'll take Rosey by over 39.5 points. Went to last weeks Prelim thinking that the winner would go on to win the Grand Final, and nothing i saw from Rosey made me think otherwise. They were awesome. How they managed to finish behind Churchill and Glen is beyond me.

To make a game of it, hopefully the Sale City folk put more time and effort into stopping Crackers Maymon and Ash Emery than Gormy did. Emery should have got the 3 and 2 votes for last weeks game. And no idea how they could stop Cantwell in the ruck, barring a car crash before the game.
 
You mean Justin and Jon Cantwell.

I thought the spread was pretty even Emery, Cantwell, Caldwell, Flanagan, Gerard Barnes, Chris King, Darryl Mayman and Crackers Mayman all played a part.

One thing Sale City do have, is a potent midfield that can tear you apart so Rosedale probably need to play a little more defensivley than what they did last week.
 
I like Sale's spread of goalkickers, 8 players with more than 20 goals for the season and Rosedale has just 3.

Midfield is where it will be won though, I really like the drive City get through Tollner, Hider and Schuback. Like Nugget has said Rosedale need to be a little more defensively minded than they have been but that may throw them from their game.

The reason they finished below Churchill and Glengarry was they lost to TTU and Cowwarr, something that stops me from thinking they can win on Saturday.
 
Churchill lost to Stratford last year and were raging favourites to win last year but didn't. Not that it disproves your point...but have you seen Rosedale play the last weeks since beating you guys at Glen???
 
Daniel Domaille won the league best and fairest just ahead of Nick Hider, Kinder is umpiring with Red Clapton and Craig Hooper...
 
Nah I havent seen them in the last 2 weeks Nugget, but I cant get away from their performance against us in Round 19, horrible! We had arguably our weakest team of the last 4 years in and beat them, so I am basing my opinion on what I have seen of both teams this year and we have just been destroyed by City, not in the hunt for even 10 minutes of either game.

TBH I was worried we might be able to get on a roll and get to the GF and have to play them, it would have been embarrasing.

Here's a question for you blokes, Who do you want to see win? Not who you think will win, but who you want to win?

Yes very surprised I thought Hider was a shoe in, playing twelve games and winning is a massive effort but if you look at the times he has been best he has been first or second so obviously polled alot of two's and three's.

I would have thought Trease was a chance but his mouth would have let him down.

Big Cigar, I would like to see Rosedale win.
 
Be good to see the swingers get up.The "home of the 2001 NGFL premiers"slogan on the entrance sign on the way in was starting to look a bit sad .Sale City are going to be hard to toss though but the heavy ground might slow them down a bit. Interesting to see whether Shoey has a big one ,the last GF he was involved in with the maggies in 2007 was not a good day for him.
 
What about the 2s and 3s (umpires)?

I'll be pretty pissed if I've missed out again this year

Sorry Dean Armstrong is doing the seniors...no kinder.

Seconds:Jodie, Perillo and Robert Hutchings

Thirds: Donahue, Ready and Stewart Sim

Sale City are slick, handballing to loose runners from behind the football which gives them a percieved quicker side but Rosedale have just as many quick players Diamond, Sus Emery, Gerard Barnes, Dale Fleming, Nick Taylor, Craig and Darryl Mayman are all as fast as Sale Citys quicker players.

I am just not sold on that style of play being able to be used at this level in this siutation to win Grand Final games, it could be all City but it can quickly go the other way.
 
While i ultimately don't give a toss about who wins on Saturday, if i had a preference i'd go for Sale City, just for how far they've come since 2001. Sale City's last flag was in 1993, when they beat Gormy in a close but extremely spiteful game, played at Sale City. They fell away pretty quickly after winning the flag, and have battled since however. Does anyone remember the Ashby brothers that played in their Premiership side? They were guns. I think John kicked a ton in the Premiership year. No idea where he went to though, but they were both stars.

But i digress. I don't reckon many people appreciate the plight of Sale City in 2001. They were basically dead and buried. Pretty fair effort to resurrect the club, and potentially win a flag within a decade. Can you imagine the amount of work involved if you tried to do it at Nambrok or Newry? Probably different scenarios, but you get the picture.

It also fascinates me how a Club responds after winning a flag. It seems in local footy, that often after winning a flag, everyone runs for the hills, examples being Rosedale in 2001, TTU in 2004, and Cowwarr in 2006. TTU and Cowwarr have both drifted aimlessly since winning the flag. Not sure if it's better to win a flag and bottom out for 5 years, or be competitive and play finals but not win a flag, like Gormy.

If Rosedale won, i don't think their would be a mass exodus, as so many of their players have come through their Juniors.. I don't know enough about the Sale City players to predict what would happen if they win, but hope for their sake that it doesn't set them back 10 years, like it has for TTU and Cowwarr.

You can add to the fact that Sale City have has/had a side from U/12s up playing in a Grand Final.
 
Interesting story emerging from tonight

Happened to be casually observing the final training session held at the RFC and there was an incident no team wants at their final training session.

Story Short: Joe Caldwell was told half way during the training session that he would not be selected for this weeks GF agaisnt Sale City (Jo has been out for a few weeks due to an injury and has fully resumed training). He then went on to storm off the field and burst into the club rooms instantly demanding to sign a clearance form (Not sure what club he's looking to play for at this stage of the year).

The noise was loud. The players tried their best to remain focused (to no avail) and now there is a bitter atmosphere at the club.

It's very understandable for the reasoning to not select him. Why change a winning formula?
 
Jesus, I can totally understand not changing the side if this is true.

Every team has to make a hard decisions on player selection in grand finals and I am sure that this will have no effect come saturday.
 
I think there will be a mass exodus if they (Sale City) do win.

It is a remarkable effort for a club to be in that position and be where they are today, what they had going for them mainly was their vicinity (Sale) which attracts players straight away because of travel issues at Sale Football Club.

I admit though that they now have the world at there feet and really should be the powerhouse club for years to come. Kudos to the administration who have done a terrific job they have also set up one of the strongest Junior set ups in the district which has seen them rise in senior ranks too.

My Dad is very proud of where they have got to as of today. Himself as a past player, president and coach of the club was saddened when they originally went into recess, and felt they would never come back.

My only gripe with them is that they have been so cocky for years about where they are and how many premierships they will win to no avail, I remember when we lost to them three years ago we all went in to there club rooms (as you do) to have a socialise and seriously they gave a half an hour speech about the game and how good every player was and the new dynasty that was coming through. It was a disgrace to have twenty Heyfield people in there clubrooms and for them to carry on like that, needless to say we belted them by a 100 points next time which was classic and surprise surprise there was not one Sale City person that came into our rooms.

not sure about a mass exodus, rumour a few older sale.f.c players are leaving or want to leave sale.
rumour Hider chasing Sale CHF & CHB has rang Hider wanting to play.
not sure who the players are that are going to leave Sale city, seem to be a pretty well run club with no internal problems, why wouldn't they stay
 
I don't think Chris Stasinowsky and Craig Flint/Jordie Dessent are that old because they played CHF and CHB last year.....

It is just an opinion Robbie that I think will happen...
