Game Day Around the MCG - Grand Final Day

[ESKIE]

Best days of my life, fingers bled .. Yeh yeh woo

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

Bryan Adams has partially redeemed AFL GF entertainment. Right tempo, recognisable, crowd likes it as much as they can when they are waiting for the big show in nervous anticipation.

 

[Neese]

Stupid question but is match delayed on Fox?

 

[DaVillaBlues]

Sellers looking his usual, vibrant and positive self.

Only on 7 and 7 mate I thought?

 

[AB_Blue]

Yep. Half time show in fox,
Pretty sure
7mate is HD

 

[NavyBlue5]

Wayyyy better on Mate. Thanks!

 

[NavyBlue5]

My tip is the Hawks by 23. Hoping for a close one though.

 

[ShanDog]

Damn their footy looks good in HD. Can't wait for the new TV deal

 

[Wickzki]

So if West Coast win will they be accused of tanking like we have been?

 

[P_Crippy]

Nice evening-up 50 metre.

7mate is better

 

[Wickzki]

Nice one Shuey.

Two goals thanks to Shuey.

 

[Wickzki]

This pace is going to suit the Eagles big time in the second half if it keeps going.


... But they've got to be in the game. Not sure they will be.

Fmd. Panel will already have Cyril's name pencilled in for the Norm Smith.

 

[DaVillaBlues]

Hawthorn easily ..

I honestly feel (with all due respect) that this West Coast team is the worse Grand Finalist (on paper) since 2007, in just about every line on the ground, The Hawks have WCE measured.

Clarko knows the historical significance of this match, this team will become football immortals, right up there with the great Demons side of the 50s if they win today. You can question the Hawks tactics and sportsmanship but you cannot question their resolve. This footy club used to have that same steely resolution, but alas, not since probably 1982.

The mantra of Yabby Jeans 'Are you prepared to pay the price' rings so true for this Hawks team, every historically great team has players that play on a physical edge (Hawks 80s, Lions threepeat etc) but because the AFL in the last 10 years have sanitized the game to point of it becoming hop scotch footy, Hawthorn's physicality seems to be an issue for some.

Hawks by 6 goals plus, Jordan Lewis Norm Smith, Cyril to set the tone with 2 early goals.

Got the Cyril part right

Delicious.

 

[AB_Blue]

[ESKIE]

Pressure....

 

[ESKIE]

Yeh you did!

 

[Ellas Ellas]

WCE have settled.

 

[AB_Blue]

Hawks controlling this atm
