Preliminary Final predictions

[Gavin Excell]

Ah preliminary final week - possibly the best week of the season for the football watcher.

Best teams going head to head in cut throat finals and games which fans can actually attend.

Who do you think will be slugging it out . I suggest

Collingwood v Hawthorn

Geelong v West Coast

 

[Cuzz09]

I would LOOOOOOOOOOOVE to make the Preliminary Final!!

Just cant see it, its a long season...

My predictions are:

Collingwood Vs Carlton

Geelong Vs Hawthorn

Decent games right there!!

Ah preliminary final week - possibly the best week of the season for the football watcher.

Only ever beaten by GF replay.



Collingwood v West Coat

Geelong v Hawthorn

Do you just post useless threads to feel better about yourself?

If you were going to bother looking weeks ahead you may as well discuss the first week of the finals.

That's going to be the most important week.
By far

 

[QuietB]

Hawks and Cats are on a collision course for week 1 of finals so that would rule a preliminary final clash between the two. Therefore one preliminary final will be cats v pies

 

[kaiserchief13]

Collingwood v Geelong
Hawthorn v West Coast

 

[Dirty Bird]

That'll mean BigFooty will become unbearable with Carlton having the semi's off

 

[Cuzz09]

I reckon Hawthorn will go deep into September.

Collingwood vs Hawthorn GF.

and on their day they can beat the Pies.

But yeah probably week 1 sets up the finals but Prelim weekend is and always has been my favourite weekend of footy.

(except 1992,1994,2006 )

 

[Lockyer24]

Geelong df Hawthorn
Collingwood df Carlton

 

[glenn_ox]

Gone through the ladder predictor a few different ways, keep getting:

Geelong Vs. Hawthorn
Collingwood Vs. Carlton

Hope it happens, biggest weekend of football in Victoria for a long time.

 

[Slappper]

Coll v Haw
Gee v Freo

 

[Connoisseur]

You're selling the pies short there, they will be odds on favourites to win their first final and should come through. So if anything it's gonna be a pies vs hawks prelim.

 

[Pessimistic]

Back in 2008 I had a 'vision' in a dream of hawks playing collingwood in the big one.

It confused me when we played geelong in real life

 

[puffpuffgivemo]

Hawthorn Vs. St. Kilda
Geelong Vs. North Melbourne

Get on - would be huge odds!

 

[kaiserchief13]

Hawthorn Vs. St. Kilda
Geelong Vs. North Melbourne

Get on - would be huge odds!

lol

 

[Fadge]

Hawthorn Vs. St. Kilda
Geelong Vs. North Melbourne

Get on - would be huge odds!

For a very good reason.

 

[bisazc887]

Coll v Stkl

Wce v Haw

 

[Tatts22]

Did Ladder predictor a couple of times & keep getting

Prelim - Collingwood v West Coast & Geelong V Hawks

Then of course my predictor says GF - Pies v Cats!!

 

[GFC123]

Collingwood v Carlton - Winner Collingwood.

Geelong v Hawthorn - Winner Geelong

 

[walhawk]

Collingwood V Cats
Hawks v Weagles

 

[beez]

Collingwood v Geelong
Hawthorn v West Coast

 

[Dan26]

Essendon to finish 7th, ....... beat 6th, then beat 3rd-placed Carlton in week 2 to put them out in straight sets.

Sets up:

Collingwood vs Essendon
Geelong vs Hawthorn

Sets up a 2007-esque Preliminary Final between a dominant minor-premier and a 6th or 7th placed team with a heap of momentum.

Then you wake up

 

[Dan26]

Then you wake up

Hey, the Pies came form 6th in 2007.

It's not as if the winner of the Elimination Final is then incapable of winning the semi-Final in week 2.

The Qualfying final loser is 20-2 in week-2 semi-finals. WE ARE OVERDUE TO HAVE AN ELIMINATION FINAL WINNER PROGRESS BEYOND WEEK 2.

 

[reincarnated]

It looks to me like Collingwood vs Hawthorn, and Geelong vs West Coast.

Carlton vs Sydney, and Essendon vs St Kilda would be my guess for the other two finals.
