MGFNL coaches share their premiership tips

Damian Turner, Mirboo North

After Foster had a tough preliminary final, and not knowing the exact ins and outs of the injury list, it doesn’t look great. I think Fish Creek will be too good, and come away 15 point winners.

Paul Henry, Morwell East

What a game!! Fish Creek for me. The three-peat is happening. Week off, fresh and just too good in the big dance!!

Troy Shepardson, Stony Creek

Fish Creek to win by 18 points, the younger faster side. The extra rest will prove to be an advantage.

Lachie Jones, Tarwin 

It should be a great contest. Fish Creek for mine although it’s very hard to split the two. The week off always helps and Foster was made to work for it last week on a warm day against Yinnar. Gavenlock from Fish Creek for BOG. 

Pat Frendo, Newborough 

I reckon Fish Creek get the win in a close one. I think Luke Williams from Fishy is just too good and will get them over the line.

Sam McCulloch, Yinnar

Fish Creek. They have a fit and healthy list and their finals experience will get them over the line. Foster had a few injuries in the two finals which I feel they will find it hard to cover.

Jarrad Walker, Fish Creek

I’ll probably tip Fish Creek haha

Sam Davies, Foster

We are still alive with one to play. 

Jai Acardi, Toora

Fish Creek. After watching Foster on the weekend, they look a bit beat up and Fishy always seems to rise to the big occasion.

Rhett Kelly, MDU

Fish Creek for me. I think their ability to shut down teams defensively and not allow them to score will go a long way. If Foster is to win, Besty will need to kick more than 5 goals. Should be a ripping game.

Daniel Taylor, Thorpdale

Foster has too many key injuries at the wrong time of the year which is disappointing for them. Unless Willem Duursma somehow becomes available for Foster then I think Fishy will win by 4-5 goals. Lachie Gale to dominate the ruck for fishy and be the best player on the ground.

Brendan Mason, Boolarra

Hard to tip against Fish Creek on GF Day. And it looks like Foster, who played the best footy during the home and away season, has been hit by injuries at the wrong time of the year.

Fish Creek by 10 points.

Adrian Burns, Hill End

Fish Creek and Foster have been the two stand out teams of the competition, but you also need a little luck as well. Fish Creek to win
