Could be geelong v Brisbane final , hate Port Adelaide they are such dry babies on social
Media :joy:

Getting back to AFL, as a Port fan, I do have questions about whether they can get past Sydney. Even though beat them by a lot a few weeks ago, that wasn’t indicative of how Sydney are. The most likely to come from the other side of the draw is Geelong. Port won’t want to face Geelong again. I wouldn’t want a repeat of 2007, would much a repeat of 2004.

Agree - everyone I know would rather face Brisbane than Port - if we lose by only a few points on Friday, I’d be more happy about it if Geelong then won on Saturday so we don’t have another embarrassing lost.

I’m going to say exactly what I did last week and say we have no chance of beating Sydney.

If Hinkley has been fined this, so should the Hawthorn players as Ginnivan is the one who started this chaos

But that’s not how the VFL works :wink:.

It’s a bit soft. But Ken was a little unprofessional and it shouldn’t be coming from a coach. If Connor Rozee had said it they would be fine. But there shouldn’t be interaction between opposing coach and players.

With that said if Jack Ginnivan and the rest of the hawthorn players can give it they need to learn how to take it. My mum gave me a great lesson when I was kid when I was teasing a kid once. She said that is fine you do that. But if you get upset when you get teased don’t come running back to me. And boy did I learn the hard way.

Going for Sydney and Geelong respectively in the prelims. Can’t see them causing much trouble to Port and Brisbane respectively

9656

I’m think Sydney vs Brisbane. Brisbane are the only club left in the premiership window. I can’t see them losing.

Battle of the Rugby League cities in another codes Grand Final?

It’s amazing what a win can do - last week, the fans were against Ken, this week, they are now running a Go Fund Me page to pay the fine :laughing:.

They’ve already raised $2000.

Also from Nathan Buckley:

"I’m amazed by the fine. I thought it was worth being censured,” he said on SEN.

“The coach needs to hold himself to a higher account. There’s no doubt you need to control your emotions. But please — $20,000?”

It’s actually not a fine for Ken Hinkley it’s a club fine.
