Let’s face it, we were stuffed 2023 finals, injuries and exhausted

2021 was a real missed opportunity, not showing for the prelim was a disgrace.

2020 were a dodgy call for intentional from winning against the eventual 3 peat Richmond, or what I’d like to call push players under the ball Richmond!

So 2020 missed
2021 major miss our own doing
2023 no chance
2024 we’re looking good, minimal injuries, rested so our pressure game should be high. Deep midfield, no excuses
Who was injured in 2023?

Well we were lacking tall defenders and McKenzie was playing with a foot falling off.

Can’t remember others, Alir also? Mitch was out

Our midfielders gassed

Yeah I remember Mitch being injured but legitimately couldn’t remember anyone else looking back at the 22 Dixon also missed the first game of finals.

Looking back I think the list was more cooked by lack of depth than injuries.
 
I don't remember the 07 grand final at all and I was there.

I remember it all too vividly. Probably because I wasn't at legal drinking age yet.

Flew down to Melbourne the morning of and got back home that night around 10pm. Remember getting into bed thinking "wtf has just happened?!" Was in a complete state of shock. Have never heard the G so loud as when those Cats came out of the tunnel to go through the banner.

Was a true Victorian crowd wanting to see a Victorian club win the flag after 6 previous seasons of "interstate" clubs winning it all.

Hopefully Port's fortunes in quali finals against the Cats continues tonight.

Yeah mentally cooked, definitely remember McKenzie was stuffed and couldn’t run.

Ultimately, what were we 1g 9p in the last to lose by 23 points!

Yep Dixon kicked a goal in the first minute of the last qtr to give some hope.
After that we kicked 9 points they got 2 goals.
We have bit of a history of bad goal kicking in big games.
That first qtr of the hawks final we should have had them on toast.
Think we kicked 3-9 in the first?

I remember a couple missed shots early and then S Burger kicking a goal in the 3rd, and then after that I blacked it out.

I remember the first bit, the second half nada, at half time there was drunk girl walking up and down the aisle giving a John Belushi Don't give up, did we give up when the Germans invaded Pearl Harbour kind of speech. It's basically all a concussion after then.

And Ricciuto on a zipline.
 
Can we stop the 07 flashbacks please, it's bad juju

You better not look at the Dan Houston thread then, it's on page 119.:tearsofjoy:

I laugh in the face of bad juju.

Just remember what ol’ Jack Burton does when the earth quakes, and the poison arrows fall from the sky, and the pillars of Heaven shake. Yeah, Jack Burton just looks that big ol’ storm right square in the eye and he says, “Give me your best shot, pal. I can take it.
