Absolutely atrocious finals series (seriously, 8 of the 9 finals had 6+ goals margins, how??) and the quality of the teams up the top was putrid compared to the other teams from the last 10-15 seasons. Geelong 07-11, Collingwood 10-11, Hawthorn 12-15, old Brisbane and Essendon could probably...
It will be bad enough having Molloy and Richo on C7 all morning. Plus BT, Darce and Lingy will all be Tiger bandwagoners for the day. Please win Adelaide, just to shut up the media
To this day I still have not seen Maxy Rooke's goal after the siren. C10 cut to that woman, then the coaches, then the other players. All they showed was the ball dribble past the line with no-one near it
I don't really understand the need for the anthem being played in finals. Maybe the GF because it can be considered a national sporting event, but why do they bother with the other finals. The players are only there because its a formality, i'm sure many don't care how they look when they're 3...
Nah surely if the draft order changes post finals, Geelong are still considered to have finished 3rd because they lost the 'first' prelim final. So their 1st rnd pick would be 16, whoever the hell actually holds that pick i can't remember. Carlton?
These are their 8 losses since 2011
2012: Freo kicked first 7-8 goals at the MCG, Geelong came back but still lost. Cats were easy favourites going in.
2013: Played in Geelong, comfortably beat Freo there early in year, terrible goalkicking and lost
2013: One of the biggest chokes I have ever...
If you go for Geelong or Richmond its impossible to answer this objecively. The best way to look at it is what happens if you take them out of their team's midfield. Geelong becomes Duncan, S Selwood and Menegola. Richmond becomes Prestia, Caddy and maybe Ellis. I think Geelong's 3 is better, so...
The AFL will use the excuse 'he was hit on 2 separate occasions and we can't determine when he became concussed so neither player is punished"
In the future when a player bumps a player and they became concussed, another teammate should bump them again, then they'll both get off
Adelaide for sure. If Richmond win it'd be worth leaving Victoria for a couple of weeks. Plus they have a better team and play such a better style. I still struggle to understand how Richmond has gone from meh to GF in 1 year. The list hasn't changed much - i still believe a lot of their players...
