Finals discussion thread

The streets of Melbourne will be a very dangerous place this Saturday evening, particularly if GWS manage to win.

[Enrico_Misso]

The MCG (capacity 100,024) has sold out for Richmond v GWS....just 1,256 of those tickets have been sold to GWS fans

I am going and quietly hoping for a GWS win in order to see the biggest collection of fans supporting one team ever assembled in the same place suffer.
They all seem to think they have this won.
Would be great to see the cocky multitudes brought back to earth.

Will definitely take a radio and if it looks like GWS are going to win then will maximise my entertainment by tuning in to the Tiger Radio coverage with Rex Hunt, Tony Jewell and Dale Weightman (does anyone know what station that is on?)

Actually, if GWS lose, will their players look at the crowd with envy and want to leave the empty stadiums of GWS.

Gil will be swearing nonstop for weeks

[SaintPav]

I give GWS a 30% - 40% chance of winning.

If Richmond is off by even 1%, they're stuffed.

[dals_da_bomb]

I agree EM.

I am secretely wanting GWS to win.
Just because if they won the GF they would be on 1 with us.

However im also happy to see the tigers win because my grandma - in her 80s now is mad about them.
I lost my other grandma in March this year and she was a saints fan. I know it would of made her so happy to see us win one. I want to see my grandma happy while she is here with us.

Footy is a nasty piece of work.

I'm hoping against hope really, that the Tigers get handed their arses gift wrapped by GWS today.

I have a nasty ex and her entire family as mad Tigers
Therefore, it would be great if they won tonight, actually, so they can fail next week

[SaintPav]

GWS are on. Bad sign for Richmond

[Bruce G McAbee]

And my interest in AFL reduces if the tv reality shiw team gets up.

[Con Gorozidis]

Game on here.
Game of the season coming up.

Enjoying this and enjoying watching Constanza miss a few.

[Bruce G McAbee]

Well the good news for Adelaide if GWS wins is there will be 9 thousand extra seats for them next week.

[Bruce G McAbee]

No one can deny there a good team GWS, they're just a joke of a club.

They are the better side out there. Just lacking a bit in composure at times.

Doesn't mean they will win though. The noise of those tiger jackals must be a bit disconcerting.

[SaintPav]

Do the umpires realise that there are 2 teams out there?

[dals_da_bomb]

I need to leave Melbourne

3 MONTHS if tigers win.
3 MONTHS if tigers lose.

[SaintPav]

This is now Richmond's game to lose.

[dals_da_bomb]

Surely not.
11.54 to go and 28 points up.

[realdeal]

It's admit that it's totally sour grapes on my behalf but geez, the St.Kilda team of 2004-2010 would destroy this Richmond team.. They have so many avg players having career years, they have zero injuries and they've just had everything go their way this season... I guess good on them for taking their chances..

[Bruce G McAbee]

They also have Dustin Martin an absolute match winner and what we desperately need.

Without doubt, he's been amazing. Along with Rance.

[saintsRrising]

Might be a Fairytale GF two years running.

[SaintPav]

Will be a bit different next week but won't write them off. Adelaide are a very good team.

They are also in the VFL Grand Final tomorrow.
So they cant be that bad.
