West Coast and flip a coin between the other two. I'm leaning toward Hawthorn, just.

Would love to see North make it, but that would just be a massacre. And who wants to see the Hawks win another flag? Freo - North would be my ideal match up.

Definitely don't want to see North make it. Order of preference is:

1. Freo
2. Eagles
3. Hawks
4. North

Hoping for a derby Grand Final with Freo to get over the line. Expecting Hawks v Eagles with West Coast to win.
Well done boys!

Hawks v West Coast

Hawks will win by around 15-20 over Freo
West Coast will smash North by 30+
Hawks on there home deck v West Coast's ability to torment them into frustration.
Should be a interesting contest
For mine they were the best 2 sides in 2015
Freo's style was never going to hold up against teams who can score heavily when it counts.
Hoping west coast get a win on the big stage couldn't stand to see that smug twat Clarkson hold it aloft again

Since about round 15 I've tipped Hawthorn and West Coast to play each other in this year's Grand Final and my attitude hasn't changed now.

I think Friday night's contest between the Dockers and Hawks will be a close one but I think Hawthorn's firepower should overcome the Dockers. While the Dockers are a great defensive team their attacking ability concerns me. They were poor against Sydney in the Qualifying Final and I don't think they've been great in the second half of the year in comparison to West Coast and Hawthorn.

The Eagles are on fire at the moment. North Melbourne's run has surprised me considering I thought they were weaker than Richmond, Western Bulldogs and Adelaide this year but I guess they got lucky playing a Richmond side who choke in the finals and a tired Sydney team who have succumbed to injuries, lack of hunger and are ageing. Logically you'd think West Coast should win this comfortably but I would be shocked if North pulled off an upset here.

A derby Grand Final would be superb but I don't think it's going to happen to be honest.

Scott looked scared on TV yesterday so I'm tipping West Coast.

Hawks are weakened with the loss of Gunston but perhaps they have the better coach.

West Coast - Hawthorn

+1, would just love to see Freo knock the Hawks out! Don't think they can score enough goals!

North - Hawks

Not the best match up but it will be what it will be. :twisted: :roll:
