Warren Tredrea was on "Ten News" boasting that Port will win because they have nine players who have played in a Grand Final before, whereas Geelong only have Mooney.
So what he is saying is that the team with more Grand Final experience players win. Well, Tredrea is forgetful then. Port Adelaide themselves defied this assumption when the inexperienced Port, with only three or four previous-GF players, beat a Brisbane team who were in their fourth successive Grand Final. Brisbane Lions won their debut Grand Final against GF-hardened Essendon. So this claim is as full of hot air as Tredrea himself.
