Game Day 2024 GF Swans v. Lions - Saturday 28 Sep @ 2:30 @ MCG

[BloodySwan]

Let's go!!!!

 

[MF]

2012 grand final is on the marathon right now.

Really brings home how important being accurate early is with Hawthorn missing so many shots. Could have really burried us.

Also notable how few free kicks were paid (despite Stevic trying to give his beloved Hawks everything he could). We need to keep the game out of that pricks reach today.

Goosebumps watching the last quarter

So many epic performances

Remind me again - what are the protocols if we have a draw?

Asking for my cardiologist.

Extra time now after the 2010 Grand Final craze

And how much extra time? Or do we just go till someone scores?

Per THIS

Both teams would have a six-minute break before the game resumes with two three-minute halves (plus time on). Teams swap ends after each half without a break.

An extra 10 interchanges are permitted in each half and do not roll over.

If scores are still level after the first extra time, another two halves of extra time would be played, and so on.

 

[Darren Downunder]

Good luck, worthy opponents. You have been the best team all year.
If you win you will be deserving Premiers.
Hope it’s a great game and thanks for a fantastic Grand final week.

Yikes! It's here! Let's go boys! Swans by 29

 

[Bonz]

Ok...

We turn up, play hard and keep our composite we should have this.

Brisbane are a truly brilliant side, full of belief as well, but do suffer from the same inconsistencies as us.

We need to find a way to start fast, then have a 4 quarter performance. If we can do this, they won't be able to go with us.

4 quarters left, let's do this.

 

[The King!]

4 quarter effort

 

[Dangas]

Big day, big game and hopefully huge post-game! C'mon Bloods!

Order another bottle of whiskey you’ll need it

So much this lol

 

[DeathlyAccurate]

Not sure how to feel. Definitely nerves in the stomach but keep telling myself that we should be the better team. It’s up to us to finish the job otherwise this brilliant season will be for nothing.

Thanks. My cardiologist says great to know what he'll be working with.
