Will be a HUGE game Friday night with a big crowd.
Hopefully each side belts the living daylights out of each other!

I reckon both Prelims will be blow outs, if Hawthorn play anything like they did against Sydney the Pies will win by 10 goals

I'm hoping for the Woods to get up Friday night, then i'll sit back with a Doz of beers Saturday night & watch Geelong & West Coast belt the living crap out of each other, whoever wins i hope are still battered & bruised for Saturday weeks clash.
Collingwood then can finish them off once & for all.
C'mon you piiiesssssssssssss.

If Bailey and Schoenmakers keep their spots I will be amazed.Bailey improved all season but has been found out both finals.Schoenmakers has been dismal .

I thought Bailey was good in patches friday night and deserves to keep his spot. Schoenmakers has just been found out in the strength department, something that is going to be highlighted again this week on either Dawes or Cloke.

Where there is life there is hope. The Hawks are not without chance.
Friday night when they ruled the midfield they had Bailey, Hodge, Mitchell and Sewel. Thats the key, keeping those guys around the ball for long enough. Bailey with the help of Hale will need to hit jolley with everything, if Jolley can get on top then they will be dust, they simply wont be able to control the likes of Swan, Pendlebruy, Thomas, ball etc.
The big forwards for collingwood will be an issue. Cloke and Daws will be a handful so Gibson wont be able to be 3rd man up all night. Alson the run from half back from Davis and Shaw needs to be looked at. I would say Puloplo if fit, would probably get the job on Davis or Shaw as a defensive forward.
Just my take, I reckon there are too many guns for the Hawks to handle.
Collingwood by 25 points.

Who cares? Unbeaten against both this year. I'm more worried about the Eagles. I never hope Hawthorn win anything but it would be nice to roll them again in September.
GO CATS.

Yeah they ruled the midfield....against Sydney. The same Sydney that tried to Geelong the Hawks but they didn't have the cattle to take the contested marks. Pies midfield superior and they do have the Gorilla forwards. Pies by 74 points with deck chairs out in the last quarter.

I dont believe the pies midfield is that much superior to the Hawks, its just the pies backline is very solid and there forward line contains gorllias and small to mid sized players that will get under your guard. The Hawks forward line while is good, does not have the depth that the pies have. The hawks backline is very suspect to a few gorilla's in my opinion.
