This Year's AFL Premiers

pan · 11 July 2008

Coming towards the end of the season in this years AFL.

Who do you think will be in the Grand Final and who is going to win this years competition?

I think it will be between The Hawks and The Cats with the Cats being the victors.

By the way I follow Richmond. (Maybe Next Year)

Swans will win the GF and Barry Hall will kick 10.

Sydney FC will win the A-League GF.

Sydney Roosters will win the NRL GF.

Geelong by 50 - doesn't matter who. I think it might be Doggies to make up the numbers in the GF.

(I follow the great unloved - the 'Roos. Here's to getting a decent forward, tall & mobile defender, and a hard nut to replace captain reliable).

G Ablett is a gun, he should win the brownlow also. I was hoping richo would win it

Wont know until after the round 16 GF preview between those evil Cats and the all-round good guys the Bulldogs

Geelong will kill Buldogs in GF - though Cooney will win the Brownlow

PS. Bombers will win next year :grinsking

It could be a Geelong v Collingwood GF. The Woods would give the Cats a big run for their money, but the Cats may prevail, (hopefully, biased view ). Geelong have the utmost respect for all comers, so it will be tight.

We were at the Crows Geelong match last week; the Cats have raised football to a new level. As a Crows supporter, all we could do was admire the Cat's game. The Cats have blown away the zone way of playing, and possibly only Hawthorn can counteract them. And most crows supporters could only admire and clap their win.

So for me, a Crows supporter, Geelong V Hawthorn, and barring injury, the Cats to win.

Please Prospector...a crows supporter not wanting to see their own team in a GF ??? We can get there.

We can't do any worse than those chokers from port...the only disappointing thing about last years GF is that it didn't go for another half

Too cruel; actually, the match last week reminded me of the Grand Final!

Crows are just missing a key player in the forwards; their defense is excellent but even they couldn't cope last week. We were just lucky that Geelong didn't kick straight!

Great performance by Geelong defeating Bulldogs yesterday without Gary Ablett and Lingy. Shows what a great team they are without two of their best!

Tigers still in the hunt!

YELNATS · 20 July 2008

What a great game is set up for next Friday night, Cats versus Hawks. The Hawks have had their pride injured by last night's defeat, they'll come back hard.

They were quite disappointing to be honest. They had a healthy lead and let it slip. If Gary is back Geelong will destroy them.

Don't know if they can, and I'm a hawks fan

They've had some ordinary performances this year where they just managed to eek out wins (from memory richmond & melbourne) and were unconvincing against sydney (they were lucky sydney slowed the play down so much). If buddy brings his boots this week it might be a good game, but I'm not counting on a big finish to the season just yet.

We were in Melbourne on Saturday night to see Hawthorn v Saints. We were about four rows away from the Hawthorn Management (aka Jeff Kennett)- very nice seats. They were quite chuffed at half time, but at about the 20minute mark of the fourth quarter, they retired demurely to the hospitality tent

Back in a sec...

IFocus · 20 July 2008

If the CAT's can get to the final with a full team it's pretty much all over........just a class act way above any other current team.

I'm also a hawks fan and if we are within 10 goals at the final siren I'd be happy.

The Cats are a level above any other side in the comp this year and they still aren't playing thier best yet.

Prospector · 20 July 2008

Back again. So why did St Kilda blow hawthorn away? Because they played fast direct football, just like Geelong do, which is Geelong will win the flag. As nomore4's has mentioned, Geelong are playing football the way it should be played and the other teams haven't worked that out yet. Thought also that maybe Mr Buddy has read too much of the media saying how awesome he is. Several times he treated the opposition with some antics which earned them a free kick.

Buddy generally gives away a few free kicks each game. His head is what could stop him becoming the best player of all time imo.

I love watching Geelong play football, thay are awesome. They only know 1 style of play, high risk attacking football. You never see them hold the ball above thier heads and play that crap tempo ****, but other sides continue to do it. Playing into Geelongs hands imo.

My brother in law is up from Canberra this weekend for my old mans 60th and he happens to be a Geelong supporter , so Friday night will be interesting, probably won't be talking to each other on Sat at the party:

Kangas beat the Pies again.

We stuck it up arrogant Eddie's 'sacred cow' jumper. Hey Eddy - stuff your jumper mate. The more you bleat about Collingwood and the historical anomaly of ten premierships in the 1930s or whenever it was that has allowed you to coast financially and not 'sell' you jumper, the more determined we at the mighty North Melbourne football club are to stuff your words down your throat. Keep bleating Eddy.

Ok now that I have that off my chest...

I am happy with the season and we played beautifully this Friday night. Startign to look like we might have a team next year. 32,000 members, no relocation to Gold Coast and we stuck it up arrogant Eddy! Who cares who wins the grand final?

Cats by miles by the way. Weekend simply re-affirmed this. Hawkers next year?
