AFL Grand Final AFL 2024 GRAND FINAL: 2024 Premiers BRISBANE LIONS

[giggler99]

Brutal! What perfect timing by the AFL poor Johnny had to put up with the Lions celebrating during his presser.

 

[RAPPA]

Good on ya Grabdpa Fages. Absolutely deserved to be a premiership coach. Another premiership coach from the Hawthorn-Clarkson success era.

 

[Obeanie1]

Grundy 15
Fort 5
Daniher 1
McLean 0

Well that doesnt paint rucks as high value parts of a premiership side.

Something which has been discussed for some time.

How important is having a gun ruck?

They may be a big factor in getting the wins needed against lessor opponents but up against fellow contenders not so important?

 

[Obeanie1]

Charlie Cameron and Tom Papley, look like they can be pretty severe on their teammates when they don't deliver.

Like when Charlie missed two goals 20m directly in front. Did he let rip at his teammates then?

 

[Obeanie1]

More fool Sam for tipping them again. I saw they were off’ a few minutes in despite being in front by a couple of goals

Swans looked a shadow of themselves from the home and away season.

Could not name a single Swans player who won their position.

Not a single one who had any affect on the game.

I nornally dislike floggings in the grand final. However by the end of the game yesterday my cheeks were sore from smiling.

What a tosser. He should be treated with the George Costanza rule - everything he says, do the exact opposite.

Though, his Johnny Rotten hair style isn't too bad.

 

[Yellow Feathers]

Ashcroft comes across as a a bit of a FIGJAM.

No that’s a huge W. Based AF

 

[MisterMarcus]

Watching the replay - it's honestly amazing how easily Brisbane players broke tackles, took hits, and just plain ran through Sydney players.

Almost no genuine physicality from Sydney at all.

Katy Perry was okay. She at least put on a busy visual spectacle and respect the courage given the buzz right now. The crowd weren’t really getting into it and I don’t blame them (I’ve never been a fan), but you can see why she was picked and that the money was well spent. Not just a dinosaur rocker standing there playing the hits. Tina’s brief two song appearance was also well done and age defying.

Well the day has arrived and the weather outside looks awesome.
Should be a great day and hoping for a great game.

I know it wont happen but I would like to see no tagging and just let the stars play head to head.
A shootout with goals galore.

My picks for the box sweep is...
Lions by 14, however tossing up between Joe and Ashcroft for the Norm.

May even grab a Lions scarf for the day.

Good luck to both teams and well done for getting there.
NSW vs QLD in an AFL GF, can only be good for the game.

Just got home from a massive day at the GF and thought I might bump this and drink a little of my bathwater .
Congratulations Lions fans.

Need some advice from previous Grand Final winners over the past few years - what is your best purchase memorabilia-wise? Feeling very overwhelmed with all the choices!

If you have a study a nice print is great.

I tattooed "go dees 2021 flag" on my nuts and never regretted it.

Cheeseboard was alright too.

Usually, the one you already have. Very fond of my "member + year" caps / scarves.

Apart from that, the DVD with as many commentaries as possible. Hopefully Madman Entertainment are starting to get their act together after some appalling quality releases in recent years. Love how they even put K-Rock on there for Geelong flags, but the frame rate and non-existent extras is just poor.

 

[Drought Break]

Hit outs, unclear whether to advantage or not:
Grundy 36
Daniher 1
Fort 19
Mclean 6

issue with grundy is that he often wins hitouts but they are just non effective taps to his feet where he then tries to do the ruck roving work. Used to work ok about 5 years ago but not anymore. He rarely takes a mark especially overhead contested marks. Big reason why pies moved him, just stupid we paid him that ridiculous contract

 

[Haso]

I love Brodes. But he soft. Kinda like loving meringue.

Sorry to change the subject, but could we just unpack this one pls?

I just need to know what loving meringue is. Then we can talk about the footy again.

its a vexed situation. A combination of the ground, and us as a culture do not align with rising from the seats and dancing or nodding ones head to the beat of the drum. Sit back and enjoy without being too far out there.

watching the replay and gee BT had a mare, called the wrong player many times and blatantly wrong calls/takes.

The best was when he refferred to Chris Fagan as ‘Denis Pagan’

I missed that, he actually said that?
