WHy?
Surely Geelong, having finished second on the ladder to our third, have the right to 'host' the final at Collingwood's home ground?

How will that help us win?

I don't care if they nudd-up and play in body-paint as long as they win.

It doesn't help us, but I find it aesthetically pleasing and that is the point. When it comes to finals what the teams wear is based on what the AFL think looks the best, so it will be interesting what will happen when/if we play Collingwood.

Maybe they should play the Pies game at the jackers home ground.

Maybe the Cats prefer it that way as they can be all blue and white?

Maybe because the guy that struggles in the white shorts isn't playing this week :wink:

Geelong looks better in white shorts anyway.

If we end up playing Collingwood I would hope the AFL decides to have them in the black on white rather than white on black.

That's good to hear ashjam.

Somehow, l don't feel comfortable when they run out in the all white gear. They kind of look weak and wussy in it

Considering we have played them the last two seasons in the finals, I would expect to see the same result both in attire and result.
