I'd like to think this will be a far better spectacle than the Second Semi Final ...let's hope so!
If West play attacking footy like they can they will make it a contest but I still expect Norwood to run away with it by 35+. They have been the dominant team all year only losing 2 games but as we saw in 2002 the job still has to be done on GF day.

Hope to see a crowd of 30 000+ as the weather should be good.

Hope the doggies can win the Reserves GF.

Well, everyone (apart from CDFC supporters) has their wish, We aren't in The Grand Final...which is a good thing, right? Because We were ruining the game. Soooooooooooo.......there had better be more than 27,000 to this game.

Can only see a dominant Norwood win here, West have won their last 2 games against tired sides and must be pretty flat themselves whereas Norwood will be fresh as, can see it being a 10+ goal win.

The old saying goes a week is a long time in Football. I feel it will be closer than people expect. With West in their first Grand Final in 8 years and Norwood for their first since 2010. Norwood have beaten West in 3 of the 4 contests this season. I just Feel westies (yes I know I am a westies fan) did enough to win on Sunday once they had the lead and rested themselves into the Grand Final. It will be interesting to see how the game is played out.

Yeah. I'm just glad the Eagles made the most of their GF chances against Centrals. :D

I reckon it will be under 5 goals either way, and quite possibly under 3 .. People seem to remember Westies ordinary footy better than their good footy for some reason, but their best is capable of beating almost anyone, and their list is almost full strength.

We will see something different from them this week as opposed to the 2nd Semi - There's no way they will attempt the same method and/or structure and risk a similar result.

So no, I think this one goes down to the wire, just hope we're on the right side of it.

People prefer to remember Norwood's ordinary footy to their good footy too. :D

Enjoy your pending premiership.

Was that West's odds, or their predicted score?

Your fitting into the mode of a Glenelg supporter beautifully!
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!!!
