2013 Premiers - who's your tip?

[Bossdog 2,002]

I think the forecast is for a few clearing showers in the morning and then clearing to a fine day....

[Vipercrunch 2,820]

I want Freo to win in a close one. Always nice to see a club that hasn't had any recent success get one.

My main hope the umpiring is good.

Posted elsewhere.

Hawks by 18 points - Freo won't be able to lock them down all day and they'll have the momentum for some period(s). They'll need to kick goals though - which I think they will - if they continue to miss from set shots like they have been then they'll lose.

I hope Freo win though - Kennett, Dermott, Dipper, Buckenara, Newbold etc - they're easy to hate.

Umpiring mistake resulting in Freo win - hard to top that really.

[beelzebub 23,191]

Freo...less than a kick

[Bluey's Dad 3,419]

Although I WANT Freo to win, the realist in me says Hawthorn.

[Die Hard Demon 1,213]

Ill be going and supporting the dockers and Ross lyon who I was fortunate enough to see coach the Saints in the 2010 Grannie.

Compare the players he had back then to work with to now.. He's in a much better position. Hopefully he & the Dockers can finally taste victory.

Dockers by 11pts.

Purple's by 13 points. Fyfey for the Norm

[demonique 314]

Freo to win !! It appears I'm wearing purple socks today!!! So it's an omen !!

Going to be very windy and I feel that will certainly favour Freo over Hawthorns less manic style .

[rjay 24,577]

Hawthorn comfortably. Roughy to play in the middle to counter Freo's tall mids and his own loss of recent form.

[John Crow Batty 8,763]

I'll go for Freo. I predict they will start off the game like they did with Collingwood at Subiaco earlier in the year. A tsunami like surge in the first quarter and then keep the Hawks at arms length the rest of the game.

I jumped on Freo in late April when they were 17/1. Even Freo/Rabbitos was 75/1 and Freo/Roosters was 100/1.

But what worries me is that a side like Richmond have the wood over Hawthorn. Richmond are the opposite of Freo. They hardly tackle and press etc.

That is why I think I will lose my investments and Hawthorn might win by 28. Hope I'm 29 points off.

[Tony Tea 2,800]

Freo by 5 points, goal after the siren.

Kicked by Crowley.

[Bitter but optimistic 22,057]

I hate Hawthorn.

Carn Hawks!

I couldnt bare to see Freo win.

You sound like a latent WC supporter. Do you have the same feelings for WC? A team that has routinely humilated us for over 2 decades. I smell a class traitor. Edited September 27, 2013 by america de cali

That would have been nice old dee but no just me hoping more than anything.

[Earl Hood 6,057]

Let us look at the facts, hawks finished on top with 3 losses, they are playing at their home ground, they were runner up last year. It all points to a Dorks win if you work off the odds! But then both sides are physically equal for the challenge. But for me if you have been there you might just get a jump start to set you up for a win.

I'm hoping for a similar result but in Hawthorns favour. It's almost nauseating in Perth at the moment if you're not a Freo supporter.

[McQueen 17,864]

If you lived in Perth and knew the history if how arrogant this club can be even when they're clearly sht, you would understand where DWA is coming from.

[John Crow Batty 8,763]

I see it a different way. I wish we had this genuine in your face attitude and arrogance. They had a long time wallowing in [censored] and good luck to them. We have had even longer [censored] time. I kind of see more hope for us if they succeed. Perhaps you are confusing their now with their past Schwab/Connolly days.

Hawks to win.

Would hate to see Crowley and Ballantyne win a flag, even Ross Lyon gives me the runny bottoms.

Isaac smith for norm smith.
