Along with WC's firepower, I think that the roos didn't handle the heat very well.
It's tough to go over there at the best of times, but being more acclimatised to the conditions is an added advantage.

As it happens so often these days (years) in finals, the bigger bodies seem even bigger compared to a smaller opposition.
W.C. will be missing Lynch & Waters for their clash with the pies, but I think they can cover that considering the plethora of big guns that they have.

The pies will be missing Maxwell and had a very hard hit out vs. the Hawks. I reckon they're out in straight sets this year.

Apart from the fact the Hawks finished on top of the ladder with easily the best percentage in the League and have won 11 of their 12 last games you could be right.....Perhaps it's all a bookies conspiracy???
