Will a Geelong-Sydney Grand Final happen in 2024? What is the most likely matchup?

The game would be over at QT but in Sydney's favour this time. Surely getting sweet revenge would be better? By the time we got our act together in finals Richmond were already a basket case again. And with Hawthorn we bundled our chance in the 2013 prelim (2016 only sort of counts as both teams were average).
Sydney's first quarters are poor to say the least. Yes we come back, but I worry that falling 30 points down at quarter time in a Grand Final would be harder to pull back than a regular season game.

This is like reading a slow motion meltdown.
OP does realise that it hasn't happened yet, and is unlikely to occur...right?
Combination of Sydney/Carlton/Brisbane still the likely outcome.

Long way to go and anything can happen but the tears of hatred make it even sweeter. The reason both sides are hated? Success and building strong clubs and cultures.
I admire Geelong as a footy club for the above reasons. If Sydney aren't there or can't win it, I hope Geelong can do so.

Based on ladder predictions I did, it is the most likely grand final matchup and it is bad news for everyone. Will just put on 2023 at 12.30pm Perth time and watch it

This is some real headf***ed stuff to prepare for something so unlikely this far out.
Rest easy, we won't be participating.
How many times have you posted this? Stop ****ing crying that Collingwood have blown their flag defence you big baby

Looking more and more likely every week.
Despite being only 2 seasons ago there would be not only substantial changes to both sides but also the roles of those players.

Could be a one-sided affair or a scrap like that 54-54 draw we saw in June if happens

QF2: GEELONG v Port Adelaide
EF1: BRISBANE LIONS v Carlton
EF2: Western Bulldogs v HAWTHORN
SF1: GWS v Brisbane Lions
SF2: Port Adelaide v HAWTHORN
PF1: SYDNEY v Hawthorn
PF2: GEELONG v GWS
GF: Sydney v GEELONG
There is a mathematical chance this happens if Geelong beats WC by 10+ goals than GWS and Port lose their matches

My prediction is now a Sydney vs Bulldogs gf, 2016 rematch, Sydney's chance to revenge and redemption after 3 straight grand final defeats, Bulldogs chance to get no 3. Be some interesting narratives if it happens.

Swans have a good change of avenging 2016 or 2022. 2016 Dogs won (thanks to bad umpiring) and Trump became President over a female Democratic candidate

Yeah its a double edged sword. They'd love the chance at revenge, but yet another loss to the same sides that beat them would be so demoralising.
As long as Geelongs not there the gf will be a good matchup.

Much as it would be the worst possible tune up for a final it would almost be worth it to see the short circuit it would create in BigVic’s brain
