Match Day Thread. Prelim Final. Geelong V Swans. MCG 7.50

Solid half boys. Bring it home

I may be uninformed over this side of the world but why was this game not a home game for one of the sides?....

What a half! Can't believe how good that was. Everything about it, pressure, disposals, kicking at goal. Loving it. How good have Benny and Ramps been? Those guys are on fire! They're all on fire to be fair!

How much do you love Nick Smith? I mean really. He is just absolutely awesome.

And by the way, that young Heeney fella can play a bit...

Yes, both have been awesome the last two weeks.

Almost cried when Papley kicked that goal.

Keep it up boys. Don't give em' an inch. We don't want a repeat of the semi-final in 2010.

I think I might be mistaken about McGlynn. Guy clearly wants a Premiership. Didn't think he was a big game performer.

He knows it's his last chance......

By the way, the two biggest comebacks from half-time in VFL/AFL history, were 52 points in 1970 and 50 in 2008. I don't think that's going to be on the cards tonight.

So if (1) We win and (2) Aliir misses, does that mean the fairy tale could become a reality?

Yes. Who else is a tall defender? I would say Ted rather than Mills, surely?

[Scottee]

The boys have been sublime. The only worry would be if we went too hard in the first half.

Let's hope he gets his wish in 2016

That's reassuring.

If the Giants can play their prelim. at tiny Spotless, the Cats had a case for this game being at Simmons (and us at the SCG in week one against, hello....the Giants. There's a theme here!). Simmons holds more than Spotless......but that's the AFL for you.....

I thought that was the likely case...Thank you...
