Caught the game a bit later. Port put on the most pitiful effort except for about 10 minutes at the start of the 3rd. The skill errors were non-stop and they couldn't handle the pressure. Except for beating the dogs in rd23, they have been poor against good pressure sides all year and it showed tonight. Dogs are a big danger, would have liked to have played them next week with a rest for them. Given how poor PS were, its hard to get a clear red on the dogs. Our team should have done their homework like they have done for the last 2 contenders.

Watch the Kayo recording of the game for all commentary I missed being at the ground. Then focus on getting good seats, then not thinking too much, then ad thr game gets closer more excited and nervous, slap heard the dees considering st least 1 open training session. Hopefully up my way at Joondalup arena.

We made the granny. So the wife and I talked on the way home from the game. We have 1 GFG membership and the remaining 5 are priority 2. We decided it did not matter if I don't sit with the family, as I buy mine at 9am and theirs at 11am. (I'm not taking the risk of missing a seat and they understand, plus with 12,000 allocation all WA members should get a seat) We'll still be there at a grand final with the Dee's in it. (But if anyone has 4 GFG they want to provide, I'll pass on my 5 priority 2 memberships to someone else, otherwise we go with plan A, if I can't get 4 it won't matter as we can it split the kids up, too young, PM if viable)

May will be fine, its 15 days away and he went back on, before the game was in hand and they took him off. Depends on our opponent, Smith the only change but neither side are really tall like Geelong.

What can I say bring the grand final.... Just got home from the game and it was great. Great team effort all night. The best thing was sitting back and enjoying the last 1/5 qtrs as we had the game easily in hand. Go Dees...

Great first qtr…. Lots of pressure and spread when we have the ball. Looking good.

Let’s go boys!!!!

Ready to go…. IMG_2331.HEIC

Super nervous and excited, what could be worse if its like the 3rd qtr of the rd 23, I can't pause walk away for a bit and then comeback. But me and the family are heading in at 3.30pm to get in early and enjoy the build up at the ground. I'll see if there are any badges left to grab from our stand.

But he won one. But the psychological games are interesting. Plus we were near the end of our physical effort by the PF in 2018, WC were fresh off the break and on a tough home deck.

Maybe organising a pick swap to maximise members/supporters going. Getting GFG to paid up WA members who then pass on their priority 2 barcodes to others who support but not members. Win/win for everyone.

yes, just depends on your time constraints :)

Just at Joondalup and saw the dees having a training run at HBF arena. Looking good.

Its great we get first preference over the second team. My worry (Besides the bloody cost!) is I have 1 GFG tickets and 5 priority 2 tickets in the immediate family (family membership). If I get more than my GFG 1 ticket, how do we get to sit together as the others being my kids 12,9 and maybe the wife (not a footy person)? Do they release all the tickets together that have been allocated? Update: Spoke to the club, they expect 12,000 tickets to be allocated to us. I would need to wait for 11am and hope their are seats left for me to buy with my kids if we allocated some. Which is no ideal as I fear I may miss out on even 1 seat. So if we win, if anyone in lockdown have spare GFG that they cannot use maybe contact me to chat about it over the weekend. (Also the conversation in our house is how much we will pay for the kids to go at the listed prices for category 1)

Rankine is the type of player that would thrive in a strong team as a bit/impact player. What is required of him at GC is above his mental agility at the moment.

Eagles home base and facilities…guess their on holiday 😁

Got my 4 tickets in bay 138 all family. The tickets went bloody quick for the best seats. Need to login earlier for GF to get I that queue they setup. I guess with GF it won’t be as bad it will be purchasing 1:1 per membership.

We got our email for ticketing starting tomorrow. Any idea how much tickets will be for category 1? Can't see anything on the Ticketmaster website.

I'm also a Perth member, but I've forked out my support for the club for decades and last week purchasing 1 priority 1 GF guarantee membership so I will definitely be present when we make it, as they extended the option. Hopefully the other 5 memberships we have in our house will get places in the ballot too, being priority 2. Given the year and the announcement that of the GF in Perth weeks a ago there was ample opportunity to grab a membership. It was on the news this week in Perth that at least 300 west Aussies have purchased a MFC membership to get access to a seat.

I'm a WA member without a Grand final guarantee ticket, though I did enquire it earlier in the year. I'm betting on the normal percentage allocation for supporters will be in far excess of all WA demon members and I should get my tickets with the family. My tigers mate got tickets to the Tigers v GWS GF by also being a GWS member as it was so cheap. They couldn't fill their quota.

25th September 2021..... :)

In that scenario I prefer him to kick the last goal, with the winning goal kicked by us in the 3rd....

Finally finished watching it, bloody hell what a game, looked gone for all money, but we didn't stop and we overran them. Thank god for Burgo! and his fitness program. Now the Lions, betting Adelaide oval..

Who have they played! Pies and Dockers...not what you would say are great defensive teams with lots of talent on song.

Bloody useless Hawks, how did they lose(Draw) from there?
