Will it be a shoot out between the two top scoring sides, or an arm wrestle. There are so many aspects to this game.
Personally, I'll be hoping for another big game from Stevie J. And who's going to pull the short straw and get Didak?

Hopefully a spectacular affair!

I think this game will come down to defense though. Expect Scarlett to hold the key

hopefully its a draw and someone has a shot after the siren, Wouldnt that be great?
or just let it be a draw and next time they vs be a grand final??

+1 Ossie. Geelong just have that edge in defense, but the Pies are catching up. Will the Pies tag Enright?? That could be a point of difference too?

Reckon Enright will tag Didak like last time

Collingwood's defence is better than Geelong's defence, the problem i see from a Collingwood perspective is that Geelong's midfield is still comfortably better than Collingwoods.

bunyip

Geelong are a team that uses pressure to prevent easy access to the forwards. A few teams have discovered this year that the cats defense is not quick. If Collingwood can get some time in the midfield to dispose of the ball accurately, Geelong will be in trouble.
Unless of course they give the ball to Cloke, who can't seem to kick straight.

I agree with that bunyip.

Do you think Collingwood pose the biggest current threat to Geelong?

bunyip

Definately. They have done nothing wrong all season. the Saints are in a rutt. We play the doggies soon, that will be interesting. You guys have had problems with them recently.

dylsta05

there geelong toughest opponent no doubt, but lets hope they can carry this form into the finals aswell

bunyip

I think they will, the top teams start getting it right about now.

dylsta05

beside st.kilda :(, but i think they'll bounce back this week hopefully

bunyip

They are struggling. They should be OK this week though, even if Port beats them, Freo will probably lose to North anyway.

dylsta05

why will freo lose to north?

bunyip

Just my opinion. Freo are more comfortable at home. They are not as good on the road, never have been.
