AFL Finals Series 2011: Semifinals preview.


Chris Judd and the Blues are fighting for the club's (and Brett Ratten's) future against Judd's old club, the West Coast Eagles in Saturday's semifinal. One of two semifinals that will take place this weekend in this, the second week of the AFL Finals Series 2011. The Eagles are looking for their first finals win since the 2006 AFL Grand Final.

The other semifinal will compose of the surprising Sydney Swans, who shocked St. Kilda by 25 points in the elimination final on Saturday night, as they take on Hawthorn. The Hawks may be without the services of Lance "Buddy" Franklin, who injured his knee on Friday night's qualifying final against Geelong. The Cats won the match, and along with Collingwood, will have a bye week until next weekend's Preliminary final.

As always, AFL.com.au will have live timing and scoring as well as radio feeds from 6PR, 3AW, 4MMM (Melbourne & Sydney), ABC, and SEN among others. Only the Eagles/Blues on Saturday will be live on ESPN3.
