Bates Mate

Intensity is rnd 6 level

GF crowds not as loud or parochial as they are in other finals, due to the huge amount of corporates and cost of tickets. I actually think that and heat will play into Brisbane's favour

💯 agree, so many posters on here assume Petty will be back ready to go next year and just slot back into the forward line in the form he had before he got injured. He had a great couple of weeks and showed he might be the answer permanently but I'm not assuming it will just happen

Reunited with his great mate Jake lever

Great in the air and like him as a player but couldn't bear to watch him fluff easy kicks at goal every week

Hasn't had credibility for a long time now. About 20 years

Well done Jack Viney 7th in a Brownlow thoroughly deserved, and had a better last third of the year than trac. So umps got that right

Bont and trac , Gulden robbed

Didn't know that yeah he wins

Goulden , Bont tie

Agree. North blitzed us in the 1st then nothing for 3 qtrs and ended up with a vote getter. But these are umpires remember

Neale $1.15 on sportsbet. It's all over

Right under the umpires nose all game and Brisbane win alot without any other real standouts

Not best 22 certainly , but good depth . Definately would have preferred him over Laurie and Jordon in the finals this year if he was fit

McStay is a big out for the pies. I don't rate him much but he had been decent in the finals and takes a good defender. Harris Andrews should have a field day and Brisbane forwards will keep Collingwood backs accountable. Midfield battle will be interesting and could go either way. Overall Brisbane more talented and should get it done if they don't get stage fright

That's some Nostradamus level foresight .I'll take 4 years of mcKercher while our current window and if he reaches the levels you suggest if being a walk up captain for a new Tasmanian team chances are he's helped us Jag another flag. Best available without crystal balling is Taylor's philosophy

I'm not one for conspiracy theories but dead set the fix is in

Good ol tom Morris , always makes to make things sound a sure thing then backtrack in the next breath. They all do it

Giving this a bump as Colby is the exact player we need. Skillful, quick, kicks goals, hits targets . I hope he falls to us but not sure he will make it. I'd be doing everything possible to get GC's 4 to grab him

Peaked when they called the Daicos head high on Greene a great tackle

game plan is fine , our kicking skills and composure are 2nd rate.

Collingwood 2 finals and not the better team in either of them. Everything goes their way. Just might be their year but if lions get there as the should and play to the anywhere near their best they win comfortably

Nags head pub going nuts haha. No bookings required

Jees over the top to Greene was on. Gws running over the ground better but Collingwood should finish strong with the extra rest

Daicos takes off greens head. Commentators really good tackle by Daicos
