    Re: 2020 Footy Finals (Weeks 1-3)

    Every year when finals time comes around, games go up a notch and the pace is fast and furious with some brilliant football.

    I feel so far the matches have been more like the normal home and away games. Is it because of the lack of atmosphere or the quality is just lacking?

    Hopefully the prelims will be different with the four top teams playing each other.

    I think the first week of finals was high quality as the top four played each other, the bottom four played each other.

    This weekend just gone shows the difference in quality of the the top four V the bottom four. 99% of the time the top four losers always beat the bottom four winners.

    I’m fairly confident the next three matches will be high quality footy.

    I thought the first two games of the finals were up to scratch. This was between the top four teams but also both games had a home crowd.
