Geelong

They will not be lying down for us - coz it is VERY likely Collingwood will beat Adelaide and play the loser of Geelong/St Kilda. Being that Collingwood seem to be the ones Geelong fear the most there is no way they want to take the chance of being put out in straight sets.

Believe me Geelong will want to smash us - they will be very concerned if they don't.

Like what????? Don't get me wrong would love to see it and think it is a chance of happening but I am not sure if anything stranger would have ever happened in a finals series.

I hope Geelong throw everything they have at us, because if we don't pull off a win, it'll hold us in good stead to fight back even harder the week after!!
So.... if they are so worried about the Pies the week after, I'd say the pressure is n them also! :wink: Good!


When they created LENNY HAYES (in the shadow of Harvs) they forgot to break the mold (again)- hence the Supremely Incredible Jack Steven!!

Fitzroy winning the premiership from last place in 1916?

Supporters may be worried about who they play but players never are. Geelong is afraid of no one, including us.

Strange things in finals:

Saints losing to Essendon in '65, we were overwhelming favourites.

Saints winning in '66, we were massive underdogs.

While I appreciate your sentiments, I am not so sure that Collingwood will have an easy win over Adelaide. There have been other games lately that the Crows have played without Porps, and other goal kickers have risen to the occasion....
