VFL GF is being played at a suburban ground, running costs would be much lower.

By the time you add the fees, our GF tickets are effectively $38 (which is also the gate price)

Only if you’re buying one ticket, if you buy say 6 tickets the booking fee only gets charged once still.

Bays have a history of losing grand finals they are favourites to win

Sturt by 11 points

Watched from the Cornes Deck last year and trying out the Bodyline Bar package this time. As a child I was taken to many of the Grand Finals by my Grandparents. Always a great occasion. As an adult, have been lucky enough to see plenty with the Eagles involved, but up until last year hadn't gone to a Grand Final not involving my club. It was thoroughly enjoyable and as my mate and my birthday is in September, we made a pact it will be our annual birthday present to each other. Will be interesting to see the crowd size now we are on the other side of Covid. 2017, 18 & 19 were all around the 40k mark. Hopefully the SANFL bounces back with attendances, with perfect Spring weather and two well supported clubs, hopefully we see in excess of 40,000. I loved the Tim Rogers video on the Sturt socials page - reminiscing of those Tigers and Double Blues battles he witnessed as a kid in the 70's/80's.

Glenelg, finishing top and straight through to the Grand Final, combined with the 105 point win last time these sides met, makes it seem they would go in strong favourites and they probably do. However, that game was back in Round 9 - early June. There was also no Tom Lewis for Sturt. He and Battersby are absolute bulls and the game can be won from their inside work. Snook, Turner, Partington and co won't back down - however, Sturt do have that inside grunt that can win a big game and Hone is a very good player up forward. Mattner has won two premierships and has built this side again to be a force. Glenelg have the quality marking trio of McBean, Reynolds and Hosie up forward. Allen is a prime mover who was targeted in the 2021 Grand Final and kept quiet. Glenelg have been the most consistent side of the last 5 years and another flag to add to 2019 would be just reward for the body of work they have put in.

Hoping for a close game and a big crowd. Sturt to win by 8 points.

Rd 1 Sturt won by five goals following 2 late ones, poor selection by the bays (4 “talls” picked - Hosie, McBean, Reynolds Leck) no real small forward picked and we had no front half turnover pressure

Post that game riot act read to the boys re no forward pressure and structure changed to include small forward for frontal pressure

Since then we’ve gone 17 and 2

Rd 9 better forward structure and repeat forward entries we smack Sturt by 17 goals with one of our key inside pressure mids missing in Gerloff.

Aerie makes good points about Sturt wanting to control the inside work but I’ll back Snooky, Lyons, Bell and Getloff in to match that. Our edge will be that with Sturt wanting it in close it will give us an opportunity to open up and transition the ball by foot on the bigger oval into our key forwards which is a key difference in our game plan compared to 2021-22, where we over used the ball by Hand (pun intended).

Over the season we’re a four goal better side per game, we win more clearances and we have more tackles - why I back our inside work.

Like Norwood in 2022. Eagles in 2020 & 2021 and us in 2019. we’ve had the best defence (scores against) all year.

Yeah we have a great forward line but it will be our team defence that gets us over the line on Sunday by 6-8 goals after a tight first half.
Let that be a lesson to you Port, no one beats the Bays five times in a row in a GF and gets away with it!!!

How are you Bay blokes planning on celebrating? Back to the club?

Not sure but the word at the club is that the club has managed to source in the last week an unwanted job lot of black t-shirts at half price from some club up road….
