Finals Matchups

Sorry if this is in another thread, but what's the most likely finals situations?
Now that the 4 are locked, what do the remaining couple of games give us?
I'd personally like to see this:

1. Melbourne
2. Adelaide
3. Perth
4. NZ

Thoughts?

If Fearne coaches in Perth next season I'll rejoice. Would definitely tolerate them a lot more than I currently do

Gleeson in Cairns with no resources would be interesting. Interestingly bad.

Hey J your petty Wildcats wouldn't win a road game anyway, regardless of the venue.
Perth just blew any chance of winning the title today, beaten by a stronger, faster and smarter Adelaide juggernaut.
Can’t win if you don’t have home court and your 13,000 loser west Australians

It should be a PER ADL GF purely because they have the most passionate fans.

Melbourne has passionate fans, just more educated than Perth and Adelaide.

Melbourne just don't have a long enough history to develop a rivalry yet.

Melbourne's primary rivalry is their ongoing conflict with interest

I think Perth will play Melbourne.
If Prather comes back it could unsettle their chemistry.

I hate to say though but I think Melbourne may finally have bought themselves a title. If you didn't win this year you'd be pretty dirty as a Melbourne fan.

1st Melb - (Split NZ, lose to Perth and beat Ill) 19:9
2nd Perth - (Split Cairns, beat Melb) 17:11 105%
3rd Adel - (Beat Bris, lose to Ill) 17:11 103%
4th NZ - (Split Melb, beat Ill, lose to Syd) 17:11 101%

Semi 1
Perth in 3

Semi 2
Melb in 3

I'm not certain Melbourne has bought a premiereship, haven't spent any more money than Perth, Cotton would be the top earner in the league, Sydney would've spent more than any other side, Childress, Moore, Shorter would all be on a good wage and Brisbane spent a fair bit as well, only two sides that are any where near budget, Cairns and Illawarra.

Perth won from 3rd last season and only had home court coz Adelaide lost after finishing top...so how did we blow it #670827?
And what exactly makes 13,000 passionate fans who pay a lot of $$ to support their team losers exactly?
I don't like the 36ers, United or the Breakers due to the years of intense rivalry...but I have nothing against their fans.

So many good matchups here.

Any combination would be good. Grab the popcorn.

Naturally I hope United plays Perth, cos they are the team I'd enjoy defeating the most.
