Finals preference

[Bobby McKenzie 2,387]

Assuming that we finish 3rd or 4th. Do we want to play Brisbane away or Collingwood at the MCG? Of course getting up to second would be perfect and that's not out of the question. I would prefer Collingwood on the G. What do others think?

If we finish 3rd I doubt we will play Brisbane away unless Port are docked premiership points for concussion-gate, we lose to Carlton and Brisbane win all of their remaining matches.

[Clintosaurus 7,867]

We are finishing second. Port or Brisbane at the G will be fine.

[Demon Disciple 12,274]

Who cares, we’ll wipe the floor with all of them 😋

[Bring-Back-Powell 14,939]

Prefer Collingwood over Brisbane if we don’t finish top 2.

Brisbane don’t lose at the GABBA.

[Dr. Gonzo 24,305]

Collingwood

[Roost it far 8,630]

We’ll finish second and wipe the floor of Port. Brisbane at the G in the Prelim

[Macca 17,034]

Any team, anywhere, anytime

A lot to play out... but I think the Giants will make the prelim the way they are going.  Wouldn't want to face them if that happened!

Love to see them upset the Pies in a prelim though, they will have spent all their tickets just to do that. Like in 2019. Would be a grand final opponent we could kick 20+ goals on.

They’re not beating us in a Prelim at the G, not now, not ever

[BDA 22,891]

My preference is to finish second and play home finals at the G. And i think we will.

[Straight Sets Simon 23,113]

My preference is we play North Melbourne and then West Coast at the MCG.

Really? I’d much prefer to beat Port, Brisbane and Collingwood at the G this September. Bring it on I say

I agree

[1964nowMORE 492]

Happy to play Port in Port, no team with more must win pressure. We got this.

then preliminary vs Blues at G!

[The heart beats true 18,145]

My preference is that we win the quarter final by 15 goals, the Prelim by 20, and then I get a shock mid grand final week phone call from Goody, whose been covertly studying my comments on Demonland, and wants my football nous in the box for the big dance.

Then when accepting his Jock McHale medal Simon says he couldn’t do it without me, and gestures me on stage, where I politely decline the medal (I’m not a narcissist), thank all involved, and then turn to Basil Zempilas (whose inexplicably been flown in to MC the event) and scream at him ‘Now for [censored] sake Basil, let Simon say a few words’ before ushering Goody up to the microphone to FINALLY have his moment.

That’s my preference.

[At the break of Gawn 4,460]

My dream run would be if we finished second.

QF: Port @ the MCG. Get the monkey off the back of losing our last two finals with a dominant win over Port.

PF: Collingwood @ the MCG. My reasoning for this is that it’d be hilarious if they lost their first final and I’d rather play them in a prelim than in a GF.

GF: Brisbane @ the MCG. Much larger home ground advantage and crowd advantage as opposed to playing Collingwood who will dominate ticket sales and will be insufferable. I also think Brisbane is a team that would [censored] the bed in a GF.

You had me until you said you could shut Basil up  😏

Brisbane at the Gabba is best avoided. I would back Melbourne against any other Top 4 opponents at the MCG.
