    At the start of the finals all clubs got the chance to nominate their preferred ground.

      Pretty sure Saints wanted Metricon too but got overruled for the higher capacity GABBA.
      I should leave it alone but you're not right

        Saints haven’t really played at Metricon though.

        They have played majority of their games at the Gabba.

                Who are you going for now Dogs are out? I like the Pies and do not mind WC (dislike their one eyed fans though). Lions & Fagan are exciting, Port coz I like Robbie Gray....Hope Cats and Tigers do not make it to GF.

                  Forgot about Saints.... Was their fans have suffered long and hard. Just do not think they will make GF however they are still in it. Carlisle irks me. Happy for Ratten though.

                    I'm all chips in on Port. Like the way they play and don't mind Hinkley.

                      Saints are the last team I want to see win it. Well after Geelong.

                      I’m going for Port.

                        Port or Brisbane I think would be the two I prefer. Saints I would be happy to see win it and enjoy watching, however for the sake of their supporters I'd hate for the drought breaking flag to come in a year none of them can go, that'd be cruel. Richmond and West Coast are both fine I guess and Collingwood I don't really enjoy watching but otherwise am ok with. Geelong however are the worst and hopefully don't get near it.
                        I should leave it alone but you're not right

                          I have Saints friends so would like to see them win it. Followed by Port and Brisbane.
                          I don’t want Coll, Geel or Rich anywhere near that premiership.
                          I will never see #16 the same!!

                            I like Daicos a lot. So clever and quick thinking and clean. And a brother apparently better!! Pies fans have a bit to look forward to.
