TOPIC: Contenders or Pretenders?

between the ears dwert , ambushed em early game, but let ourselves down badly up at Leederville the next meet.

if they are not 100% committed to this the same will happen, get the head space right at its possible, Subi wont want a staright sets exit and will be chasing at least one last crack at a GF and Peel after last year...as for us its all or nothing....

I'm not sure what happened to your game plan or intensity during the year but I was really impressed with your pressure on the ball carrier in game 1 at the kennel. you gave Subi no space and killed us with contested possession. if you guys play like that this week we'll be in for a long day next sunday.

Anyones game, it's 1 win each with similar margins so it should be an absolute belter of a game. If Subi allow your boys any space you will cut us to ribbons, if Subi can shut down your space and fast ball movement then we will be hard to beat. The best attack against the best defense, well match midfields, both teams don't have dominant rucks but I do rate Higgins and Dela as terrific competitors, so a flip of the coin, it will come down to mental attitude on the day. Cant wait for this one ... the real Grand Final awaits us this Sunday!!

Totally agreed mate, shaping up as a beauty. And whoever wins I'll be cheering the next week. Bizarre feeling...

agree Singha...it will be a bit strange supporting another team if we miss out but in saying that, I grew up in Freo and have a lot of SF mates and played juniors for Souths...so I guess they're my second team anyway plus my favourite opposition player of all time was a bullie...Sir Maurice....
