Game Day 2024 AFL Grand Final - Sydney Swans vs Brisbane Lions. A celebration of interstate superiority on neutral turf.

[BloodRet]

Well here we are. In around 18 hours from now, the Swans will be kings of the AFL, as I’ve been trying to tell you airheads since May.
“They’ll fall off”, they said.
“Flags aren’t won in May”, they said.
Well I hate to break it to you, but when you’re as good as we are, yes, flags are won in ****ing May.
I drove down the Hume today with nothing but confidence, on the road to glory. Seriously, I could’ve had a head on with a truck and walked it off, I felt invincible. I’m sure other Swans fans did too.
When I arrived into the Melbourne CBD, I have to say it smelt like poo. Must’ve driven past the Lions accom where they were all shitting themselves at the thought of having their pants pulled down by the greatest midfield of all time on the biggest stage. I don’t blame them. But seriously, congratulations to the Lions for being Runners-up this season. Internally, I think they will view it is a great success, and so they should. They should’ve had one last year, but it wasn’t fair with Collingwood playing on their home ground. I think the main thing for the Swans is just to avoid any bad injuries that could hinder any pre-season preparations next year as we embark on our dynasty.
Anyway, Swans by 54. Without breaking a sweat. We might even give them the first few goals, just to troll them.

^What he said

An all interstate GF is every Vic’s dream outcome if their own team doesn’t make it

No way this could possibly backfire

It's all set up for a wonderful backfire. Should be 10 threads worth if the swines end up losing.
Bloodret seems a little less optimistic than usual though.

 

[Aristotle Pickett]

Great establishment approved gameday thread of mediocrity. Swans are one of the worst GF teams in living memory.And well done for a crappy contrived outsider thread
Brisbane will be 5 goals up at quarter time and Cam Raynor will kick 4 goals and win the Norm Smith. Bookmark the Flogastamus

was worried that i was going to have to post it.

I'm concerned about the outsourcing of gameday threads plus yes I am on the rags.

The Swannies only play finals once a year, so when it happens we embrace it

 

[Saveloy Rockstar]

Surely the big question of the day is Will Fantasia ping a hammy in the sprint?



Well that and why don’t GWS have an entry. And will seeing a McEntee trigger Aristotle Pickett

FTFY

It's called "sooking it up" because I didn't let it/they make a putridly titled gameday fred.

The week long melt has been badge worthy.

Nice self own

 

[sthmelb_dimmies]

Nice self own

We win some, we lose some, bottom line is we’re there at the very pointy end of the year.

Again.

 

[Saveloy Rockstar]

Yes we’re all very impressed by you gifting another unearned flag to the Handbaggers

we lose some

You’ve lost the most AFL GFs

 

[the avoca drover]

Hey Spreaders, what country are you watching the GF in?

 

[Sqotty from office works]

Who was the last team to lose B2B GFs?
