Autopsy AFL 2024 Preliminary Final - Cats v Lions Sat Sept 21st 5:15pm EST (MCG)

[PhatBoy]

I find that a bit hard to believe

I’m disappointed, any team’s fans are when they lose, but I’m not going to tear my hair out over it. We were never expected to get this far, we gave it a great crack, and were beaten by a better side, and dozens of neutrals seem to be celebrating like their own teams have just won a flag

 

[Elixuh]

How many emergencies have the cats named? 10, 20?

 

[YeoShuey]

Winner of this wins the Premiership in my opinion. Should be a good match.

 

[STPer18]

Cant win a flag sleeping in our own beds like some we wont mention, so a bit of team bonding on the road as a dress rehearsal is welcomed.

Tell us about it, we don't get a home final regardless of where we finish.

Welcome to the any time, any where squad!

 

[Zevon]

Teams are up

That and not knowing how to win a prelim at home since 2007.

Something must have happened soon after that famous 2007 PF victory.

The same thing that has you posting in this thread more than the Sydney/Port one.

Scarlett ruined Westhoff that day. Took him years to recover as a player.

Umm, we got Danked??

Why wouldn't I like you making a fool of yourself?

The Brisbane wobbles 2019-2023 are far more embarrassing than Geelong 1989-1995 as at least that team were unexpectedly making multiple grand finals and then facing seriously great sides.

Brisbane's next best effort after 2023 is losing a prelim by 40 odd points. In other words, haven't even been close to a grand final besides last year. In a weak era.

Equally as embarrassing as the cats wobbles from 13 to 21 in your favourite term “weak era”

 

[Xtreme]

No Hawkins is a worry
He should be given the chance to exit with another premiership medal around his neck.

 

[Jezza Blair]

Hopefully you at least learned some of the rules there unlike the brainless Gabba crowd.

Nowhere more one-eyed in interpretation of rules than Kardinia Park

Nothing was weak about the Hawthorn and Richmond sides that knocked us out of finals during that time. This came after a dynasty, rebuilding from the top 4.

Compare that to:

-Scooping up top draft picks, trade ins and gifts for years while being a truly terrible side
-2019 straight sets at home, knocked out by GWS who were THRASHED in the GF
-2020 prelim spanking at home to your so called "choking" Cats
-2021 straight sets at home, knocked out by Bulldogs who were THRASHED in the GF
-2022 prelim evisceration, at least this time by the premiers
-2023 finally a GF! And they even took the lead before a last minute choke.
-2024 becoming favourites for top 2 late in the season before those couple of late game collapses to somehow even miss out on top 4.

I'm actually really glad you made me run the comparison.

Copping strays from a 10 post Western Bulldogs account is a low point Mr Meow.

He helped me post that to you, so now I'm just thankful for the read receipt.

 

[Bunnings]

Yes but we didnt show up.

How lucky are Geelong having all these finals where opposition doesn’t show up, it’s a wild coincidence hey.

There is no greater sin than smashing a top 2 team in a final who has otherwise had 2 months of immaculate form.

We're so blessed.

 

[Bunnings]

We're so blessed.

Funny when we lost finals it was cos we were cooked

 

[GOTHELIONS16]

Haven’t picked De Koning or Hawkins. Now just imagine Daniher kicks a bag and Shannon Neale is shut down. The tactics mastermind couldn’t possibly lose the game at the selection table?

The next Geelong poster that says the opposite (on Bay 13) is going to get pwned

If only we had Biden behind the wheel like you guys.

Hawkins hasn't played in months.

Blicavs and Stanley have held their spots over SDK on merit. The latter was injured at the wrong time.

Excellent selection night.

 

[My Tilly]

Geelong by 4 goals.

Ok so you're either 8 or 80

Careful now or I'll change my tip to the mighty LIONS!
