As travelling from inter state wondering most likely scenario for our 1st final. 

Looks most likely Sydney but could be the g. Any thoughts. Was thinking of booking Sydney then easy to connect through

Could also be a Geelong MCG final.. need a supporters watering hole catch up! 

If it's Sydney it'll be at the Showgrounds.

Holds about 30k at most.

Bulldogs played  a final there in 2016. Lots of complaints about not enough tickets for Bulldogs fans in an effort to get it moved to either SCG or ANZ stadium but as I recall everyone from the Bulldogs who wanted to go got a ticket in the end.

Mind you there may be more Orange People these days ;)

We are a good chance to beat GWS and that will secure a home final for sure.

if we lose most likely play GWS, not sure if it would be spotless?

If it's in Sydney it's at the SCG...  against Sydney. 

 

We can only play GWS again if we have a draw this week

if we lose, GWS go 5th.  Geelong win by a decent margin, they catch our %.

therefore we finish 8th and play GWS.  if Geelong dont hammer Suns, we play away to Shydney

This is only if our + gold coast's losing margin is less than ~50, very unlikely you would think given geelong and gc's form lines

If we lose to GWS we will likely play them in the first final.

By finals, GWS should have Toby Greene, Delidio, de Boer, Corr, Taylor back.

Davis, Griffen and Reid will also have had the bye to freshen up so they will be much harder to beat the second time round.

Big game this Sunday!!

must say that is what I thought but I have problems with tomorrow sometimes let alone ten days time ?

If we do play in Sydney week 1, I suggest jumping in early to get flights. 

All the frequent flyers (me included), will be on the Qantas website trying to score freebies with points. 

The real question is, fly in fly out, or fly in, stay the night so you can drink post match, then fly out? 

Hopefully we win on Sunday and get to play at the G. 

Out of interest.... Have we ever played at the Sydney Showgrounds?

I can recall playing GWS at Manuka but cannot say I can recall a Showgrounds game. Mind you GWS v MFC matches were never big on FTA.

Watch this space - We'll beat GWS, then knock the Cats out of the finals in triumphant fashion.

Third time lucky sort of a deal.

...and it will be so sweet.

Yep. I really hope we play the cats.

After the last two losses the boys will be confident they'll roll them this time.

Win this weekend is important to set it up


If the Dockers beat the Pies next weekend (and we overcome GWS), then we will be playing the Tigers at the MCG on the First Week of the Finals!

Certainly hope that we get this double chance (as I will be overseas on the first weekend of the finals)!

I honestly don't care who we play or where we play (although being there in person is a preference) We are equipped to play well against any team,  even Richmond.  We'll need to bring our best game but we've been trained and coached to do that. 

It's like we started off with a triple-chance - Swans then Eagles then GWS ... we blew the first opportunity then made amends with the 2nd go at it.  We've now got chance no.3 to secure a home final first up or if we're really lucky,  2 more chances if we somehow snag 4th spot.

But taking 2 wins in the last 2 rounds into the finals series would be great for the group's confidence.  And then whoever we play we can beat.  Richmond are ahead of the rest but the rest are all very similar in terms of talent.

I am totally with you Macca; in past finals tilts I have always been hoping to face certain teams but this year, maybe because the comp is so even or maybe because I think our team is strong I am happy to face anyone, anywhere!  If we lose, so be it but if we win....Toot Toot!

No doubt. They didn't deserve to win either of those games, and there's no way we'll gift them another.

We'll beat them when it counts!

Yeah, I'm so pumped. I think the somewhat removal of pressure will allow the boys to play their natural style and send a message coming into the finals. I'll be there, can't wait to see it in person!

Man, I'd love for this to happen - but I've the misfortune of watching a few Dockers games this years, and the Pies need to win to keep their top4 possie, so I just can't see it happening.

But don't get me wrong, if it does - a clash against the Tigers and a double chance would be AMAZING.

We have a great record against the Tigers, and we started strong against them earlier in the year (bit couldn't capitalise) when we didn't quite have our stuff together.

We have DJ. Once from memory  in Roosy’s first year. Lost by about 5 goals.

How much would Geelong need . I will be watching and ready to get airfares so all relevant.

If we lose and Cats win a 61 point total would see them above us and us playing GWS again.

We need to win this week and score a home final against the Cats.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
