Finals - Week 1 - Your tips

[The Coon Dog]

Obviously we'll have plenty of time in other threads to preview the Geelong game.

How do you see the other games?

Adelaide v Essendon
With the 3 suspension handed to the Bombers by the MRP, I expect Adelaide to kick a cricket score where they'll meet the loser of the St.Kilda v Collingwood clash (in which they'll have an extra 2 days break over their opposition.


Brisbane v Carlton
Some major injury worries for the Lions. Couldn't have come at a worse time for them. Helps that its at the Gabba. The winner to play The loser of our game.


St.Kilda v Collingwood
Big game here, with worrying repercussions for the loser. Winner to get a week off. How will the Saints handle the pressure of a huge & expectant Collingwood at the MCG?



Obviously we're all buoyant & tipping the Bulldogs, so who will win the remaining games (plus I couldn't do 16 poll choices, maximum is 10)

Adelaide no worries.

Carlton have beaten Brisbane twice this year already, plus they beat them at the GABBA in 08 also - with the Lions injuries, and Judd's finals record - unfortunately the Blues will win.

Saints will win also. I wouldn't get too carried away with them having a 3 week flat patch. They have struggled for motivation and have had their eye on the finals. Saints by at least a few goals.

Adelaide, Carlton and StKilda. I hope Brisbane beat Carlton though.

Adelaide, Carlton and StKilda. I hope Brisbane beat Carlton though.

Same. Hope they smash them..unfortunately with those 5 Brisbane players out it'll be a bit hard :rolleyes:

[comrade]

I hope whoever wins out of Carlton and Brisbane gets the absolute bejeezus belted out of them, just in case we don't get up against the Cats.

Crows easy winners.

Brisbane will get over the top of Carlton at home (I hope).

St Kilda will just beat Collingwood in what should be a terrific game.

[Stefcep]

Crows are the dark horses this season. To belt Dons.
Carlton by 17.
StKilda by 41.

[DOG GOD]

Crows by PLENTY!!
Blues by 16 (i hope lions can get up)
Saints by 22

[LostDoggy]

I picked ADelaide, Saints and Brisbane - but not confident on the Lions - probably just hoping:o

[Happy Days]

Crows to destroy the Bombers.

Blues will beat the Lions by about 30; the Lions just have too many key players out to get close.

Saints and Pies will be interesting, but the Saints will still win.

[boydogs]

Adelaide to land the knockout blow in the first half then pack up and win by 5 goals
Brisbane by 12 points, don't underestimate a home final
St Kilda by 22 points, premiership favourites for mine
