Game Day AFL Grand Final 2014 - COLAs v Poo Wee Whorkes

[Edgepower]

Biggest ever losing margin by a team finishing top 07 erased

 

[Forzaport]

We would have beat the sydney that turned up today. Mind you, so would the 'scray, saints etc. its highly doubtful Sydney would have played that bad against us

You'd think we were being trolled.

My aunt has a moustache but is still my aunt....

Has she ever ripped your arms off?

Could've easily been us...

Who Sydney?
Don't even go there.

geez is it so hard to supply kids caps instead of the silly adult hats that engulf the poor kids melons

 

[*PAF]

Thank god that is done. Back to the Ryder thread!

Another like.

 

[Marmozet]

Only one kick away from beating the eventual 63 point premiers! After the loss last week I thinking that it'd be better to not make it then get flogged again, well after Sydney's performance today I'm now wondering what would have been...

Shit Grand Final to say the least.

Get rid of the kids.

Problem solved.

Hodge Norm Smith delayed recognition for his spoil that got them into the GF.

Matt Stevic the unsung hero for helping the Hawks win last week lol.

 

[Shaucob_Burjan]

As neutral. I'll be filthy for a while that you guys let that lead stretch too far last week. Horks winning the GF leaves an empty feeling.

Nah not filthy. Don't like the thought of being 'one kick away from the premiership', I think it's just excuses. And it's no guarantee that Sydney doesn't show up against us.

 

[BornPort]

Thank **** that's over. Bring on trade week/month.

Time for JB to come home and become a 4 time premiership player.

Just switched over to Fox Footy's post game coverage.

This must be how all of Fred Hollows' third world mates feel.

Yeah. But the Horks won!

I try to dislike Shaun. Just doesn't happen though.

And now I know how Collingwood supporters must have felt after the 2007 Grand Final...

cows followers anxiously watching every blink, twitch and nose-pick being made by Clarko for a sign...

So where do the Hawks sit amongst the lions and cats of the modern era? Arguably the best of the lot but i think the home grown cats still pip them

Up there. They remind me of us 02-04 but with the ability to hit the scoreboard relentlessly when it matters.

First post? We would have thumped Colliwobbles

I think that they have best adapted to the modern AFL. Traded in the players that they need, stuck by talented players on the rookie list and developed well, smart coaches and celebrity presidents.

You've got the Brisbane Salary Concession versus the Hawks priority pick rort versus the generational Cats. CATS for mine as even though father son helped they still needed to develop.

Not sure. They are up there with the 80s Hawks. Players come and go, coaches came and went but they managed to stay up therefor years.
Probably better off field than the other clubs mentioned but perhaps the others had better "one off" teams that got them a couple of premierships.
