Best team all year, and had a real hard hit out by Porties last game. Many teams who waltz through Prelims often come up short in the big one (although I doubt very much the all conquering Emus will fall for that).
Good luck both teams, and GO YOU FLAGGY UNDER 14s!!!
I can see what your saying about waltzing into a GF with an easy prelim, but I dont think this applies to the emus. although they did win easily. anyone who was there would atest that it was through the emus great attack on the footy and skills that they won the way they did. they were still playing against quality opposition (even beter than the opposition cove had??) which is different to "waltzing in".
If the emus dont get ahead of themselves and play the same football for 4 quarters as they did in the prelim, I wonder if there is anything cove could do to get up? the start of the sentence is the big question tho......IF!!!!!!!!
Thoughts?
Can the Morphett Boys win it if it gets close or they get behind?
That's the million dollar question.
All year top teams have to play S..t teams and win by 20+
You at least hope heading to the finals games you draw some above average teams to steel your metal. But if you win by big margins IN your finals campaign are you gona be poorly prepared for the big dance with a real team against you.
On that theory I say Cove by 4 goals.
Reason for Morphies 2 big wins in finals quite simply because they were quicker, smarter and harder at the footy. There was nothing there opponents could do to stop it. As Lova said if Morphies can bring the same level of want tomorrow then they should run out winners by about 5 goal. of course IF is the key word.
Be nice if conditions remain this way for saturday but it dosent look likely.
From the research I have done (bom.gov.au) it doesnt look that bad
