AFL Grand Final Preview
Geelong v Port Adelaide
The Tip: Port Adelaide by 23 points
Best-On-Ground Guess: Brendon Lade
First Goal: Brett Ebert
Chance For An Upset: The Power did it not long ago, so they can defeat Geelong again. A bit more experience, a better coach, the best big man in Lade and a couple of Cornes who can do something unexpected, the Power have some things in their favour. Geelong may have been the better team for the year, but for this game there isn’t much between the two teams.
Geelong
They win if....their back line is able to compete in the air, although when the ball hits the ground the Cats will have a good advantage.
The Good News: They have not been expected to win their previous Grand Finals, but this time they are the favourite with most people.
The Bad News: A couple of strange incidents have been a distraction in the last couple of days.
Port Adelaide
They win if....Lade shows why he was named as an All-Australian, and Tredrea will also need to produce.
The Good News: The Power need to thank their scouts, Westhoff and Rodan have been great this season.
The Bad News: Michael Wilson's injury means the Power lose a bit of experience and toughness.
