If they can't get 15,000 next week they never will. Geelong to match Port early but the borough to run away in the second half from a tired but game cats.
Port will win back to back flags.
When Geelong VFL teams were in the GF before they didnt bring really big crowds.
I went to the 2002 GF between these same clubs and it was a reasonable crowd at Princes Park from memory, plenty of pollies there, including Cats supporters Steve Bracks & the headkicker who was Attorney-General in his govt (Rob ?). Wonder if Big Ted will bother making the trip from Toorak next Sunday.

Rob Hulls was his name, how quickly we forget politicians .... just thinking back to when Gary Ayres was coaching Adelaide one day at Kardinia Park after having previously coached the Cats, the Crows got up in a close finish & I can recall Ayres giving the forks and a gobfull to some Cats suppoters sitting in front of him, who had obviously being paying their respects to him during the course of the game, no love lost between the Cats & Ayres or is it all too long ago to concern him?
Cats v Port will be a grand final , Just wish my team Zebras were playing but not good enough this year.
Hope they get a big crowd for the big day of VFL.
I reckon a tie with extra time and hope the ABC allows plenty of time to the finish.
I won't barracking for Port, but I want Geelong to lose!!
Port & Geelong the two best teams in 2012? mmmmm, probably ......
Highest Grand Final attendance in the past 15 years is 14,026. Surely this will be the game that nudges close to 20,000?
Promises to be a great game and I def believe Port and Geelong are the best 2 sides in 2012.

Burra,
To compensate for Port not having the home ground advantage next week,they should get 5 goals start

Not a bad idea Digs or maybe just re measure the ground to the dimensions of North Port Oval.
