Finals Week 1 Live Scores & Discussion

[NO-MERCY]

What about the promo ad "I just love footy" on Channel 7 where the crow players pump up their tyres and blow their own horns

Your boys might be getting ahead of themselves mate.

The karma bus just pulled up to take them home

Will Sanderson put a media ban on his players this week?
Having the softest draw in the comp hasn't helped the Crows for tough finals football.
Freo all the way this friday night.

Sydney were great!
But seriously, I am sick of hearing wanker vicco comentators referring to them as 'The Bloods' ...now that they are playing well in finals.
Don't try & reclaim them now!!
We didnt hear any of that in the minor round orwhen they were sitting on the bottom all those years ago.

They may as well call Port 'The Magpies' & Brisbane 'The Gorillas'

Sydney actually got that back around 6 years ago didn't they when they tried to reclaim the old South Melbourne fans?

Due to ANZ stadium being booked on Saturday for the NRL Prelim Final the Swans Prelim final will be played on the Friday night which will give them an extra days break before the GF. Things are falling nicely into place for the Swannies, would live to see them make the big one

More importantly there opponent in the prelim will be coming off a 6 day break!

This is absolute bullshit, the top team should always get the extra days break before the grand final.
Just play it at the SCG which is their home ground anyway.

Yes the top team should be rewarded. Should be up to the clubs to ensure grounds available.
Can see the uproar now if it ends up that Collingwood get the extra days break

If West Coast win today, they travel to Melbourne next week to play Collingwood Saturday night. If they win that they fly home Sunday and then have to be in Sydney Friday

[GWW]

Is a WCE v Freo Grand Final possible at this point?

[daysofourlives]

Is a WCE v Freo Grand Final possible at this point?

Yep sure is

[whufc]

yes if Freo beat Adelaide they face Hawthorn in a prelim

if WC beat Kang they face Coll next week and then Sydney in the prelim.

[GWW]

Cool, I don't expect it to happen, but it would be pretty cool with 2 WA clubs playing GF on MCG.

Was the actual Sydney team who brought the bloods back. Not surprised a Crow fan would be so ill-informed.

I bet you can't find it recognized on any official AFL merchandise.

You are just jealous your mob hasnt brought back the mayblooms

[Jim05]

Eagles very impressive, makes me glad we didnt scrape into 8th and get embarassed again

[Squids]

Norths soft draw got them into the finals. Now being exposed just like the Crows.
