Finals 2025 - Week 3 - Prelims

[daysofourlives]

Thought the Tom Stewart injury changed the game, up until that point Geelong were effectively playing one short. Hawthorn played very smart footy and took him out of the game, using Moore at every opportunity. His injury forced the cats to play without the loose defender.

Hopefully that was Worpels last game, not sure Geelong would be as keen on him after that performance and his performances through the finals. He's a rabbit in headlights, slow decision maker, poor decision maker and if ever he does make a decision his kicking skills are atrocious. Good riddance

Jiath not up to it, Carlton bound apparently.

Desperately need Day to have a good run at it, but history says guys with his injury are lucky to even make it back.

Im not overly enthused by Merret or Petracca but would choose Merret if i had to pick one and comes about 6-700kpa cheaper. But would only go down this path if Butters is 100% out the picture either this year or next.

And it would be remiss of me not to mention the fn maggots last night, absolutely got a royal rogering from all of them, even the boundary umpire getting in on it.
And while im having a whinge can the AFL ban the headbands. At least there will be one less next week with Stewart missing out. We dont need a bye before the GF, bad luck, no different to doing a hammy. As Mitch said, "i dont give a shit".
As for a tip, i hope they all lose, especially Geelong.
