BDA

this is a surprisingly open game. not much system so far

Bad mistake from rivers.

McInerny has started well v gawn

great field kick from nibbler

Terrific final btw. Credit both sides. I fancy GWS to finish off the cats with or without Toby Greene (i could be wrong but wasn't he suspended for the game against the cats in rd 21)

I love Toby Greene the footballer. He has has silk steel and mongrel in equal measure. But he should be suspended for bumping the ump. No excuses for that behavior at all. He has to be suspended

Hogan marking everything

I think May can handle him as well but that's 2 goals he's kicked already today on a very good defender in Sam Taylor. He's still a very dangerous opponent

First dumb mummy free of the day

Buddy's still got it

Looks like its going to be the Toby Greene show today

Are there crowd limits in Tassy? Doesn't look like a full house. Far from it actually

I find re-watching the final 47 seconds of last weeks game is a great way to kill time

I hope you're celebrating a famous win for the Dees tonight along with the rest of us. As for the old firm game, I'm hoping the Bhoys give Rangers a tonking

Maybe its recency bias but Maxy's goal after the siren last week was pretty special. For me, it tops both 2018 finals at the G when the place was rockin

I though this might have been a p**stake, expected to see the Geelong list when i opened the thread

In preparation for finals we've been beating West Coast in Perth and the cats at Kardinia park while the Lions have been beating up on some bottom sides. Their form isn't as strong as it first appears. and they don't travel well We're riding the crest of a wave after coming from the clouds last week. Confidence sky high amongst the playing group. Belief coursing through their veins. I think we are primed and ready for battle. Dees comfortably. 6 goal win

I'm looking forward to the Swans and Giants game this afternoon. Should be a cracker. I reckon we'll be playing one of these teams in the prelim and my bet is it will be GWS. It'll be a tough match for us if it eventuates

Port's club song is terrible

I'm glad people will start talking up Port now. takes the spotlight away from us

I think since 2012 they have lost 8 out of 9 in week 1 of finals. And they've had a couple straight set exits as well (with another to come this year by the looks of it)

Port burning teammates in much better positions

fantastic finish fantasia

They've improved but Geelong are making them look better than they are

Can't see a second half comeback. Cats are cooked.
