AFL Preliminary Finals

[JK]

The fittest teams fare best at this time of year and that is Melbourne and Port.

regards,

REB

You got some VO2 Max/Beep test/2-3 km time trial results to substantiate they are the fittest sides ATM?

But I get where you're going and cant produce data to argue against your assumption.

Geelongs are all over 30.

I'd hope so, even in my decrepit state I'd expect to be able to punch out a 30 mls/kg/min VO2 max

Port

Would you think about leaving Motlop out for SPP?
Both will kick 1-2 goals but SPP brings that hardness around the ball that the bulldogs are very good at.

[Corona Man]

The Dees to salute. Isaac to have a kick after the siren for the win…. Only to miss.

[tigerpie]

With Keath out Dixon should kick 10.
Martin coming back is a massive risk.
Doggies couldn't possibly win.....or could they?

Port very settled and Keath out is massive IMO. Weightman is pretty important as well. While he doesn't get a lot of ball he's a good goal sneak and provides pace around the forward 50 and he plays deceptively tall. He's not bad at drawing the whistle either. Ports younger brigade has given them the edge and I reckon you blokes win comfortably. I reckon Port by about five goals.

In our game we won't get smashed but I can see us running out of gas towards the end. I reckon about 10 points to Melbourne.

No mate, he will kick the winner for us. And you know it.

Another pro for Port.
They can’t lose.

[Armchair expert]

Dees and Dogs win with ease

[whufc]

How often has a team 'come from the sky' and gone on to win the Flag with back to back finals wins

Does the old saying you need to lose one before you can win won historically/statically ring true.

I know the Dees lost a prelim in 2018 but the playing group has changed a fair bit since then.

Does the yellow and green color of each game indicate the same color that they will wear?

[Booney]

Port are indeed unchanged, Powell-Pepper is the medical sub.

Spurrier not letting the Dogs have a Captains run at AO upon arrival in SA this arvo, what a **** embarrassment our state has become

Absolutely she's crazy. It's just unbelievable to be honest and makes us look like Muppets.
