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

[Shai]

What a day, the Lions hit it for 6 and the best horse in the country won

 

[GoldbergsGold]

I love the match up, 2 teams who both have consecutive grand final losing streaks, one can finally redeem themselves.

 

[SuperSub17]

Great result.

Can’t wait for next week, genuinely the most interesting matchup for a neutral in many years.

Congrats to both sides. Think Brisbane just to atone for 2023.

Gosh it’s nice to have a grand final where the winner will objectively be deserved, not just winning because it’s played in their home state

Two teams with rich Victorian history

 

[Captivating]

I feel the Swans will beat the Lions easily. Top team will show why they were No. 1 this year. They're well rested and Lions are coming off 2 tough games (after Carlton effectively out up the white flag at 1/4 time).

 

[_Mike_]

Can not pick this one,
Swans the immovable object
Lions the irresistible force

 

[The King!]

We still haven't turned up to our last grand final, will enjoy the week, back us in but suspect the odds may even before the game.

Lions an impressive side, will be tough, also never out of the game clearly

 

[Byron_Clanger]

Brisbane, who will be getting this years Number One pick and got the Number One pick from two years ago. What a league!

 

[rdhopkins2]

Hoping for Brisbane to steal it.
Sydney’s to lose though.
Lions were battered tonight more than my local fish & chip shop.

 

[Maddo11]

Would have preferred the cats. Lions have a great record against us and a very dynamic forward line.

Need to completely dominate the midfield and limit their supply to make a game of it. If they get more than 45 inside 50s it'll be hard to stop them. How Grundy goes against their replacement ruck (probably Fort) and Daniher will have a big say on how the game goes.

VFL last two runners up playing tomorrow Werribee v Southport
AFL last two runners up playing next week Sydney v Brisbane

I wonder if that's ever happened before?

Gotta go with Sydney just because of the freshness factor. Harris Andrews

might end up with the Norm Smith though.

 

[Frank Grimes]

I think Sydney by 14 points. Probably be barracking for Brisbane, but would also be happy to see Sydney win it.

Sydney has been making the Grand Final regularl over the years, but falling short so would be happy to see them win it on that account, Brisbane on the other hand lost in a very tight game last year and may have actually won it if not for one poor umpiring decision.

 

[RUNVS]

Swans will get revenge for our 1899 Grand Final loss.

 

[MF]

Swans will be fresh as spring daisies in sunny meadow.

And who’s rucking for Lions..because JD is not good with the ruck stuff.

McInerney should be okay

Ours or theirs?

Two teams with rich Victorian history

One could argue there has never been a 'truly interstate' GF with Swans & Lions Victorian heritage.
The other Interstate GF's have been: Bris Lions V Port, Sydney Swans v WCE x 2
Dreading the day it's West Coast v Adel or Giants v Suns (shudder)

 

[Frank Grimes]

Brisbane, who will be getting this years Number One pick and got the Number One pick from two years ago. What a league!

That may depend if it's it Richmond who swaps the picks with Brisbane to get Levi Ashcroft. I would imagine a part of the deal would be for Richmond not to pick him with pick 1.

Cup presenter announced

 

[Cleansweep17]

Love that the Lions got there but unfortunately for them I think Sydney win it by 4-5 goals.

It’s extremely hard to win from 5th, they might be gassed.

Is this like when New Zealand suddenly has a good sportsperson or actor and we try and claim them through some tenuous link?
