Beating Geelong and Collingwood to win a flag would be a dream run come true for mine.

Gold Coast (SE - QLD).
so over the last 10 weeks we’ve beaten 4 current finals rivals.
We haven’t beaten the cats in this time.
Because I like to collect the whole set I want us to get and beat Geelong.

If our opponent ends up being WC, it would mean they would’ve had to travel across the country twice in a 7 day period. By the time we play them in the PF, they would have to be totally knackered.
Either way I’m not worried about any of these teams in the slightest.

my sentiments exactly. i slightly prefer Geelong because of our tough game against the eagles a few weeks ago. But in all honesty, I am OK with whoever we play. Geelong is the weaker team but never an easy opponent for us. And the thought of 90,000 screaming Tiger fans against the team with the biggest home ground advanatge in footy sounds mighty juicy to me. and having to travel to Melbourne in consecutive weeks will have to hurt them somewhat.

hadn't thought of the that.

Cats seem to play The G like they've been playing indoor cricket all season, and are less physical than WC. Plus we would get to see Scott's felatio-face

so I want them.

I’m expecting it to be the Cats.

My reasoning is they will not make the same mistake not playing Stanley. They need to as WC have Nicnack Paddywack back.

Pole vaulter back.
Fijian up forward.
Gazza will not have a poor one two weeks running.
Dangerman again will play a blinder and watch Scott copy a bit of our game where Dusty was played predominately forward.
They lose Duncan & The Redhead.

Plus I’m basing it too on the LWLWL record so based on that a W ????

It will not be easy.
If the Cats just bomb it forward WC will just pick them off.
WC midfield is bloody good so maximising Danger with mins forward will be critical.

What do I know.
WC May give them a smashing.

me too.

we can't get carried away with WC form. It was Essendon in Perth.

I think the Cats are pretty underwhelming, but I expect them to play their GF this week

Not sure who i want to win , but as long as they bash each other up. On one hand it would be good to play the Eagles & have 95% crown domination, oh wait it would be the same against the Cats as well.

Yep West Coast did nothing more than I expected them to do; beat up on a really *smile* finals side in a home final.

Essendon is seriously rubbish.

We want the Cats

We will probably get the Coasters.

I would just love to beat Geelong in a Prelim just to see Scott *smile* and moan and for no other eason, he is a first class wanker.

Basically all I want next Friday night is, they both go and smash each other.
I want a wet track, I want hits and bumps. I want reports. I want hammys,
And then the week after we will slapped them

This I like this idea.

I think West Coast match up against us better than Geelong. Their forward line is potent and if Kennedy builds on the form of last week it will be a difficult game for us. I think we'll be playing West Coast. Geelong have been very ordinary the back half of the season. They relied on Hawkins earlier in the season and he is totally out of form atm. Feel confident anyway. Thought our last game against West Coast was more one sided than the final result showed and I think we're a stronger team now thean when we played them then.

Is there any confirmation of whether our game will be the Friday or Saturday and what time?
Friday seems the logical due to our opponents playing this Friday , the Brisbane GWS game is Sat .

plus we are ranked higher than Collingwood so deserve the extra day more than them,

in saying all that, its probably saturday :)

Not fussed at all, both sides are bloody good on there day and both can be average, if we are on we can beat either team
