Werribee will flog Preston on Saturday and Sandy will be a bit too good for Bendigo in the Sunday match. Werribee will be far too good all over the ground and it wouldn't surprise me to see a blowout in this match. Sandringham's defence will be too tight for Bendigo and should be ablt to get over the line. That would set up a Werribee v Sandy clash for the Grand. Werribee to win but not over confident as they seem to find a way to lose the big one. One flag in 1993 since it joined the VFA in 1965 where as Sandy has tasted success in 1946, 1962, 1985, 1992, 1994, 1997, 2000 and 2004. Should be a tight contest like Sandy v Port was last year. Maybe Werribee's midfield could be the difference.
C'mon Sandy Zebras let's go Back-2-back It's time we have been a great team for about 10years now...time we got something to write in the history books....GO ZEBS ALL THE WAY BABY....... :D :wink:
All four sides have a 'real' chance. If the Bullants get past Werribee then I'll start shouting from the treetops that for the first time in 21 years the cup will be coming 'home'.
Real toss of the coin this year. Games between Werribee, Northern Bullants, Bendigo and Sandringham have been very tight except for the Northern v Sandy round one and the first final.
Werribee...IF the shite weather on Saturday doesn't dull there edge in pace and allows the Bullants through to the GF.
I honestly think Sandringham will dispense with Bendigo this week ( or maybe it's just my anti red and black bias showing !!) and the prospect of a Werribee vs Sandy GF is a tantalising one with Werribee's blistering attacking style just winning out over Sandy's stronger and more physical game.
Having said that , imagine the possibility of barracking AGAINST Bendigo in a GF...mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
I'm thinking Werribee has been good all year, and not that I'm anything for other sides, hope they last it out.
If they play the Debras it'd be poetic to see the 'farmers snatch it from my point of view, that second free kick to that crook Sautner rings true. Him aside I'm sure the 'hammers will take some stopping. Imagine 2/2 for them.
The other two shouldn't be written off. Port were fixed up by a strong Diggers (hehe) team and the Bullants were just as good in doing the 2-heads on their own dungheap.
At the mo' though I'm just thankful for Nick Davis :)
