Big shout out to Chris’s Scott. Took no salary for 2020 and has delivered a premiership. Selfless people at the club and he’s at the top

Let them have their coping mechanisms
It
As I said main board, there's a strong argument he's the club greatest ever player
Was the perfect end

Not yet..i imagine any of the guys retiring wont announce it (they might tell their teammates tonight but the public wont be told yet) for a week or two until the trade period. But the emotion at the end told me thats his last game i reckon

check out the sen boys celebrating
Courageous call this year to change style and play more attacking football
The only way our club plays.
Held his nerve too when the temptation late in year would have been to go defensive
He must be feeling content now
Let him celebrate
Jezza going over and playing in the confetti with them was simply amazing
Not surprised as he's the biggest kid in the team

Could have just been relief we've finally won another flag. He has tried to get us over the line the past 11 years.
The negative people like me won't be, this year is exactly what I have been bleating about since we went from a super attacking team early 2019 to a control based team.
We had weapons, we didn't use them. This season, we played an exciting, direct, quick moving brand of football to make use of our gun forwards.
As long as we don't go back to that short kicking, controlling, crap football, you won't hear a peep.
The style of football we played this season was the best I have seen at times since 2007/08/09. Was utterly incredible and the coaches deserve all the credit for implementing this gamestyle and sticking with it.
According to Danger, Joel's 3rd quarter break team address..."we've won this, so let's enjoy it."

Disappointed with my club today but to be honest our best wouldn’t have got close. Your mids were kamikaze and just unstoppable.
Well done. Enjoy the win. Hopefully it won’t have mentally destroyed us.

I remember after the GWS game the media was trying to say we were going back to control football. That didn't eventuate and I applaud Chris Scott for keeping strong in the face of a few bad results.

SDK - “Joel is the Geelong Footy Club”
I made a boxing analogy in the Game Day thread. I got it wrong.
It was early Mike Tyson getting up in the Swans' faces and it was them having to backpedal and defend.
That was 2007-esque today. Relentless. Won every quarter. Showed why we had won 15 on the trot.
Hawkins' two ruck work ones in the first quarter. "Oh you just can't let that happen" say the commentators, "He's been doing that for 7-8 years." Maybe it's because he's one of the dominant forwards of the modern era who has changed the role to fit his attributes, and there are very few players who can match him for body strength when it comes to muscling up on a throw in.
Smith's first two goals - just running.
Selwood's goal off the outside of the boot from 48. That was special.
Had them almost constantly on the back foot and it showed. Their delivery into the forward line (when they could get it there) was mostly high balls and scramble. The opportunities where they had time and could lower their eyes, they generally did ok, but there weren't many of those.

It's deeply satisfying
