Game Day AFL Finals 2024 - Match discussion party thread

[Danger in Texas]

Can we have a Will Ashcroft?

Jagga Smith this year might be the closest thing to that

Brisbane reaping the rewards of playing a top draft pick midfielder in the midfield as much as possible at AFL level

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

Can we have a Will Ashcroft?

Surely one of Roo's seven has inherited his footy genes.

 

[Crow_68]

Longmire looking as clueless as Hinkley does when losing.

 

[Cap]

Feel a bit sorry for Tommy D here.

Would have been nice to see him win one. Same as Lyons.

 

[Owen_AFC97]

Sydney doing an Adelaide of 2017.
Best team all year, means nothing and thumped on GF day.
Not a great feeling.

Don’t know why it’s “an Adelaide of 2017”. Quite often these Grand Finals in recent times have been blow outs and we were only the best team in 2017 on percentage. Adelaide being the best team during the 2017 season was nothing but a myth.

 

[bonehilda]

We played a great team on their home deck.

This is way worse than our 2017 campaign but you already know they won’t get whacked nearly as badly as we did

[Mr_Moogle]

Yep completed their most important task in my eyes.

 

[whattagun07]

I think it might be over

 

[Moonwatcher]

Wonder how this feels like for a supporter of the winning team. 97/98 was fun watching come back wins.

 

[Owen_AFC97]

They knocked Port out. I can't be mad.

No one could have stuffed that up.

 

[Betts are off]

Brisbane reaping the rewards of playing a top draft pick midfielder in the midfield as much as possible at AFL level

You can do that?

 

[Rotayjay]

The sight of Syndey fans sitting there while the other side celebrates winning the flag has become a staple of grand final day

 

[FR0GGY]

No one could have stuffed that up.

Hawthorn did

 

[MRB37]

Honestly feels like the Lions have twice as many blokes on field.

 

[whattagun07]

Port could have lost by 120 today

 

[Crow_68]

I think it might be over

I think you might be right.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Brisbane have had to earn this. Lots of finals appearances, lots of falling at September hurdles in previous years. They keep giving themselves the opportunity

 

[Mr_Moogle]

No one could have stuffed that up.

It's easy to say that now.

 

[Owen_AFC97]

Hawthorn did

Kenny’s job was on the line when they played Hawthorn. Port were never losing that one. They never lose when he’s about to get sacked.

 

[whattagun07]

I think you might be right.

Don't want to go to early...but there's a definite chance it could possibly be nearly over

 

[FR0GGY]

Fire up paps

 

[Mr_Moogle]

Papsmear.

Even more reason to give Ken another contract.
