Certified Legendary Thread GEELONG WINS 2022 GRAND FINAL BY PLENTY

[cats_09]

Danger needs 6 votes to tie the Gary Ayres medal
Surely he gets at a minimum 7

My thoughts on danger changed overnight, how strange

Grand final votes are worth 1.5 times votes received

So 10 votes become 15 etc

Not sure too many Swans will feature in the votes, so he may be right

Watching the replay sober, yeah that ****ing first quarter was the stuff of dreams. Insanely quick team and ball movement, sliced them up.

 

[Grimoz]

I think the best thing to come out of this premiership is the fact that people will get off Scotts back and stop talking about our finals failures, they did a finals comparison between Scotty and Horse Longmire yesterday and they were pretty much the same, unwarranted, can't win everything

 

[Occidental]

Congratulations. A perfect day for your club. Fully deserved.

 

[Gunf]

When was the moment you knew we had it?
For me it was Stengles goal early 3rd

The moment Hawk kicked his second i relaxed and didn't get tense again until Selwoods goal

 

[CatToTheFuture]

What are the must haves from the Memorabilia store? Was almost going to pull the trigger on the team signed Guernsey but have nowhere to hang it.

I'm a $230 ordering in and haven't yet found anything I especially like. Will keep looking

Record has gone from 40% to 46% in 4 weeks

Did anyone else see Tyson Stengle interviewed on the Sunday Footy Show just then? He's still shy doing media but clearly loving the moment. I'm just so ******* happy for him, when you consider where he was coming from and the work he's done to achieve this, it's AWESOME. Will forever be a Geelong premiership legend now.

You're a champion, Tys.

Yes. But I have not seen him that relaxed before in an interview. Always smiling.

Cats fans waking up this morning and remembering what happened yesterday:

 

[cats_09]

Why did Buckley present the cup?

EDIT: Norm Smith Medal

Why not GAJ who was there?
Or Chappy?
Or Steve Johnson?

Tradition

The Norm Smith is presented by the player who had won it 20 years prior

At the airport now- off on a holiday-plane delayed but not fussed at all- will watch the replay.
Could you have scripted that game any better? The best day. We had the best time. My brother and I were there with our daughters- we all ended up sitting together for the last quarter. It was such a good day.
Thanks to everyone at the club. What a team. What a club. How fortunate are we?
Woohoo. Go Cats.

 

[Gunf]

Was it going thru though?

From the reverse angle, I wasn't sure if it was going to hit the post

And not sure Dangerfield cared, the smile on his face seeing SDK kick the goal was priceless

Yep i agree

Danger did not give 1 shit that he didn't get that goal he was just pleased that he finally had a cup.

 

[Gunf]

This is the best one yet.

Oldest team ever after being written off and won with a 16 game winning streak.

Joels goal is by far my favourite moment in a GF ever. That alone makes this one more special for me.

The noise from the crowd when it happened was just extraordinary. Just went on and on. Priceless moment.

I usually get the scarf but it's missing the player names.

That ones coming

They have limited available merchandise at the moment and more coming in time

 

[Play it Sam]

It has the names Burley Premiership Scarf (PRE-ORDER)

Thanks for the link, I need it to add to our front yard mascot.

Yep i agree

Danger did not give 1 s**t that he didn't get that goal he was just pleased that he finally had a cup.

Yeah Danger couldnt look more happy that SDK kicked it.

I still can't believe Sydney were stupid enough to play Reid. Longmire knows better than that.

 

[Play it Sam]

I don't want to say I was nervous at halftime, but I knew the Swans were close enough to still be in the match, and if they clicked they'd be good enough to get back in

The moment for me when that comeback didn't feel like happening & instead we'd run away with it - Isaac Smith's third goal, which was our 3 goal of the third quarter and all scored within the first 6 minutes

Questions were asked about how we'd come out after halftime compared with the Swans, with expectations they'd come out firing - well, we were the first team back out on the field, we looked switched on but relaxed at the same time

The Swans took a couple of minutes longer to come back out, well after the first siren to signal "get ready for the second half", and that sat weird with me, like they were really concerned with how the first half played out, so took extra time to address the playing group which can then result in a rushed preparation when back out on the ground

K Rock did a fabulous job on the post game interviews in the rooms- Hawk, Sel, Danger, Bews and more. No other radio station did better- they were all babble, some even talking collingwood and tennis.

Selwood was like you- when asked when he knew the game was done, he faltered -cos when is it ever done- and then decided to be honest. He said fourth goal into the third quarter he knew.
