The 2 best teams made it...like it always should, and because I will be there this Sat then that makes me Always like watching good sides play...and even better when two good sides play each other on the last day in Sept.
Lines are out, so here they are:
Geel (-15) Vs Hawks
The line above is 'about' right, but if you shop around like usual you can get better....depending on which way you want to go with.
Personally I liked the Hawks over the past month, but I think they would need at 'least' 3 goals in...not the 15 on offer above.
Let's see if we can make some
P.S. Might have the winner of the SANFL grand final Sat week... just have to wait and see how the Preml turn's out this week.

Reasons Rod? Would like to go reasonably hard...but not that confident, so can you help me out (and tozer, you are more than welcome as well with your thoughts)

my guess before the line came out was -16.5 to -18.5.
Like you Miracle I planned to take the Hawks if I could get 3 goals. Probably still will.
Bulldogs outplayed Geelong in the second half last week. If they took their chances could have won. Geelong don't look a class above IMO. Both beat St Kilda in the finals by a similar amount.

since the cats 'switched on' at the halfway point of the season, they only lost by less than 5 goals once, yes it was to the hawks (which was about 2 goals) but they were missing 2 of their best 3 players (ablett, ling) as well as a couple of other good players and were well below full strength.

Hawks had no answer to Bartel who ran riot that night which is why I reckon he is an outstanding bet for the Norm Smith this Saturday as well.
The Cats are on the verge of creating a dynsaty here, this is not just a good team, this is an exceptional team and one that will rank along the great teams of the modern era. Big match experience of last year will also only help their cause as well and you could point to that being a significant factor in their Round 17 game as well which was clearly the biggest regular season game this season in terms of both ocassion and crowd. Cats didn't play anywhere close to their best that night but as champion teams do, they find a way to win.
This finals series has the hallmarks of last season's finals series, Cats blowout their opposition in the qualifying final, get the week off and then come out rusty and play a sub par game but still get the job done. We all know then what happened in the GF.

I mentioned at the start of the thread that I may have the winner of the SANFL Grand Final this Sun....
Sorry boys, can't work it out enough to be confident as I may give you the wrong pick, and I just couldn't live with myself. GL if you make a play though
