Just change it to Good vs Evil. Or 10mill vs 11 mill Or simply Hawks vs *

Only Swans supporters will be going for them, the rest of the nation will be with the Hawks.

On the contrary, I reckon more people will be going for Sydney. I don't blame Sydney for being a well run club that is great at recruiting. And hawthorn supporters shit me.

As the Hawks were my team before Port entered the AFL, and my wife follows them- ill be on their wagon come saturday.

Agreed with the general consensus though- A sydney victory looks likely.

I actually like both teams, couldn't care less about COLA. Sydney didn't make the rules, they just play by them. All clubs have benefited from the roll of the dice on something at various times, some just make the most of it when it come their way.

purely based on the prelim results IMO but in saying that Sydney look in much better shape and are running games out better than the Hawks at present. Hawks backline just doesnt have the height to contend with Franklin, Tippett, Goodes and Reid all at the same time. Their best chance is to play McEvoy over Ceglar and tell him to take the centre bounce and head back to fill the hole in front of the mentioned big 4 (similar to how Rehn did it in 97/98) and let Hale and Roughy do any forward line ruck work.

Im not underestimating us. Loving the underdog status.
Beat them comfortably in Rd 18, was Gibsons 1st game back, Lake didnt play and a couple others also, think for them they had Hannebery and Shaw missing

Was very happy to hear David King say Swans will win by 6 plus goals, dont think he has picked too many winners this finals series. He's a flog of the highest order. He reckoned one of Tippet of Franklin could kick 6, 7, 8 or even more goals. That hasnt happened since 89, dead set flog with NFI
