Feeling nervous bout this one, anyone else? bad memories from pervious years.

Winner gets a chance to be runners up.

Souths for mine based on last week. Your blokes had one bad quarter but completely matched Subi for the other three. Claremont have a terrific midfield which you'll need to control but think you cover them everywhere else.

If South get up in this they get a free swing at $ next week with no expectations. That's a pretty good place to be going into a GF. You never know what can happen then.

I hope Souths get up in this because they are the only prospect of preventing another kissed on the cock $ victory

Bazz, your mob have been totally shafted the last 3 years being done by an AFL loaded Peel twice and by the debt dodgers last year, so I hope South get up in the prelim as your best equiped to have a go at Subi with zero expectations on your shoulders.

I am leaning toward South Fremantle to win the Preliminary. During the qualifying rounds, Souths average For score at Fremantle Oval being 90 points. Claremont have been scoring an average of 69 points on the road. Souths also have a healthy home ground advantage too. Claremont had 348 scoring shots to South Fremantle achieving 426 during the H & A matches which is a huge difference.
Someone was saying the betting is currently looking interesting. Apparently South Fremantle quoted at 1$ 57c with Claremont said to be two dollars thirty something. But those figures may or may not change closer to game time.

I love the way the WAFC is promoting it on their website. As of a short time ago not one article....there's heaps a stuff on the sheilas and their GF but nothing on our upcoming PF....amazing....

And there's no Wafl promotion of the Finals on the radio either!
In this area, there are 2 main AM stations and 2 FM. If one didn't go online to find out what is happening, people wouldn't even know the Wafl was being played!
Having said that, the tv has been turned off all week because been busy with other things. Perhaps the Wafl has been advertised on the screen and I missed it?

Looking forward to a great game this week to see who earns the right to progress to the GF.

Either side will go in as the underdog next week with no expectations and the support of nearly every WAFL follower to beat Subi.

that was a very good win
came out sharp and had to weather a Claremont charge in the second quarter
and then to produce a second half which kept them to one goal - well that just smashed something that's been hovering over us for the past few years in Prelims
Commiserations to Claremont they were always in it

and now it's time
it's right here
