That'll be why those tickets don't get you access. Essential Crows and Power are entry into the Western Side

Sturt can win if they start better. In all three of their finals they have taken around 15 minutes to get their intensity to the level required. Against South they conceded the first 2 goals, against the Eagles the first 4, and even yesterday had Adelaide converted their early chances Sturt could easily have been 3 or 4 goals down. You can't play catch up against a finals hardened and well drilled team like the Eagles.

I hope Sturt win; but think it will be the Eagles.

Well done to both sides for qualifying to play in the Grand Final

Sturt's last Grand Final loss at the Adelaide Oval was by 3 points in 1965 against Port. We went on to win the next 5 in a row and have not played a GF at same ground since.

Should be a cracker of a game.

Sturt by 11 points.

Good luck to both sides.

[Aerie]

Great that Rowntree finally gets a chance in the big one, after illness prevented him from playing in 2011 and a knee last year. Sturt should draw a large crowd. Go Eagles!

[Dog_ger2]

Eagles by a fair margin in a hard fought battle.

27 points.

It's a SANFL Grand final..

[RustyCage]

Sturt by 15 points

This having the GF before the AFL is still a genius move I see. 1/4 of a page in today's rag. Imagine what it would be like if the Crows ever got through to a Prelim!
Dumb dumb dumb

[holden78]

The media are scum for the piss poor support of the sanfl, shameful mob of gutless parasites
Partland excluded ofcourse!

[twosheds]

Sturt will be finals hardened after 3 games whereas the Eagles have only played 1 game in three weeks. Have Sturt played their 'Grand Final' today?
Last year, Eagles lost 3 crucial players at this stage whereas this year, they may get 2 massive ins. Have the Eagles learnt the lessons from last year's GF loss? Have Sturt learnt from 3 losses to the Eagles this year? Many unanswered questions which leads to an intriguing match up and deserving of a good crowd.

Not sure last Sundays game will have "hardened" them

I was there for the Eagles final against Sturt .
While it's all over the net Facebook footy pages how great Sturt were . Adelaide didn't show up with 21 AFL listed players for the reasons we all know .
Adelaide in the first term couldn't kick straight to get out of a wet paper bag .
Go back one week Sturt had issues in the first term kicking straight while the Eagles who couldn't kick straight all year suddenly kicked straight .
What I saw the forward line up was not the same as it had been all year .
For those that didn't see Eagles talls Wundke and Ainger were along the full forward line while smalls played along the CHF line including Lewis .
And to start with the smalls ran wild in the forward line ie see if you can see Pooles goal Press's Goal Magregors speed and goal .
Later Ainger was flying all be it most times one arm held behind him in front of the umpires no frees .
But while Sturt are on a roll getting all the glory online .
1 this year do the Eagles have ruckman playing
2 do they bring in O'Brien and Boyd

You can all say how great Sturt was against less than 21 afl players
And first year coach going for the win again at Unley
But no one really thinks the Eagles will play
We will see in a few days time

Right, so who do I have to **** to get some tickets for next week?

My two best mates, one Eagles and one Strutty might need a level headed, sober, moderator between them. So I'll need one of them too.

Jump the fence like me and Douggy did at Footy Park one time. The big fella didn't bounce back quite as well as me.

Through fences yes. Over fences no.

I'm not much of a facebooker MJ, so I'll take you at your word about the hype. However, my Sturt mates and myself are anything but confident about this week. The Eagles record against us speaks for itself and you had little trouble putting us to the sword last time, add to that a questionable performance by the Ravens and that leaves us with little to be confident about.
At this stage I'd say Eagles by 25 points. What do you think the result will be?

No worries risingblues I've resisted causing issues on Facebook SANFL fan page over this match
Eagles have a lot to make up for from 2015 I was there but like everything from 2015 gone from upstairs
We in my house are not confident

[eaglehaslanded]

We definitely have unfinished business after the loss in last years grand final. Leading into last years game we lost 3 players Rowntree, Poole and Bornholm. Touch wood and it appears to be a different story leading into grand final this year. We seem to have the wood over Sturt and I'm hoping that continues this Sunday. Eagles by 34 points for me.

[johntheclaret]

Beer number two coming up.
Sturt will know all about Adelaide Reserves effort and why. I doubt anyone at Sturt will not know how tough the job ahead will be.
Eagles are the best team in the comp this year and will be too strong for Sturt. The game will mean more to them than it did to Sturt's last opponents
Torrens by 20-25 points
