Preview Grand Final 2022

[Scud2]

Thank god that it’s over. Been a long week since last Saturday

 

[3rdMan]

Fox did a pretty good job on Cameron.

But they got that matchup wrong! He's only 185 cm.
Or did he need to kick one more goal and take one more mark to be as dominant as Buddy in the Prelim?

 

[legendstatus]

Well Gill wouldn’t give a flying **** as long as Sydney was in it

Highest GF crowd since 1986 WTF?

And massive ratings given two city’s involved

All for naught. Sydney siders are a bunch of fickle theatre goes, much like Melbourne supporters tbh. Can't seeing it translating into increased revenue for the AFL.

The thing about Cameron is that he's not your standard KPF.
As well as being capable of taking the big marks and all the other KPF things, he's very mobile & good below the knees.
Fox ended up being a pretty good choice in a team that had plenty of incoming leather.
I know you're being a bit tongue in cheek!

Guys, I reckon we would have done a shit load better than those bed shitting Swans lead by that wet lettuce leaf Franklin today. But let's be deadly serious here. The Cats were on a mission from God, Blues Brothers style. Nobody was beating them today. We would have been a victim I have no doubt. Probably by 4 or 5 g's. We dodged a painful bullet. This is not negativity, just realism. The Cats were brutal terminators today and deserve their flag. I can only hope that we can rise to this level in season 2023.

Watching the Shitney news last night , a lady with her 2 children was interviewed , and was asked about their “ beloved” Buddy , ? her reply , it’s a pity he is no longer playing with “ us”. . WTF Such diehard supporters, must be the Bloods Culture. E. A. D

Can anyone recall the name of the Swans poster who trolled our post-game thread after our round 22 loss? I want to do some post liking.

Yes. I’ll join , others here should join

 

[KillerMagpies]

Sydney.
Scared.
Weak.
Fraudulent.
Feeble.
Selfish.

“The Bloods Culture”.
LOL.
Good luck recovering after that pathetic showing.
They will drop out of the eight in 2023.
Take it to the bank.

Am about to be carded by a Shitney ref

 

[PonsfordMagpie]

Sydney's 2nd biggest loss in the 21st century.

Sydney's biggest loss since 2015.

No other way to put it, today was a disaster for them.

acknowledged COVID, gave a humble victory speech, and Selwood treated the Auskickers nicely.

That's it.

Selwood was ducking all game but they were winning that contest any day of the week. Chad Warner

were the only Swans who bothered showing up. The rest were, um, absent.

 

[KinderSmock]

Geelong Grand Clinic was boring.

It wasn't even a clinic. Reminds me of a game I used to play in my backyard where I was the GOAT on Grand Final Day and no-one could beat me. Clinic implies Sydney turned up.

 

[ThePhantom777]

Guys, I reckon we would have done a s**t load better than those bed shitting Swans lead by that wet lettuce leaf Franklin today. But let's be deadly serious here. The Cats were on a mission from God, Blues Brothers style. Nobody was beating them today. We would have been a victim I have no doubt. Probably by 4 or 5 g's. We dodged a painful bullet. This is not negativity, just realism. The Cats were brutal terminators today and deserve their flag. I can only hope that we can rise to this level in season 2023.

If we'd beat Cats week 1 they might have lost to Swans in Sydney.

Mate, ifs, buts and maybes mean nothing. We didn't beat them.

 

[Obese Arachnid]

Terrible match, at no stage did I feel like going pant less.

 

[Aussie pie]

I’m conflicted about the talk about we’d have done better in the GF. We would have but I don’t think we’d have won and losing another GF would’ve killed me. From what I heard we were also pretty banged up after last week with a number of players in doubt. The pussies were cherry ripe, I think they beat anyone today.

 

[Kelstra]

We are all wise in hindsight but the Swines were always going to be thrashed. They have an enormous home ground advantage and walk tall on their sub-standard little ground but their performances elsewhere are pretty average - not poor but nothing to set the world on fire.
It sounds like sour grapes but if those clowns in their yellow outfits were a little more competent last week it would have been the Pies there today and they sure as Hell wouldn't have gone down by 80 odd points.

Yeah, but if we’d knocked them off in the first week they might not have made it round to us. Oh well.

The thing about Cameron is that he's not your standard KPF.

I know you're being a bit tongue in cheek!

Agreed, pretty similar for Buddy though in terms of being an aerial threat at his age. People went nuts that we'd got that matchup wrong because Maynard was too small, even though Buddy only kicked 2 goals and took 7 marks. Cameron 1 goal, 6 marks.

Also, since the game it's been reported that Maynard was hampered by his groin injury. Might have been why he played on a taller opponent than usual. Because I do agree that I'd prefer to have him on Heeney.

 

[ipswichpies]

Sydnjey played their GF last week and had nothing this week why could,nt the pricks played like this last week,I do not care how beat up we were from last week we would given the Cats a hard game and they know it too. Best team all year no doubt but I still reckon we would given them a run for their money, we took them apart for 3 qtrs in the 1st game and they took until 2 mins from the end to subdue us in the Qual final anjd I think if Crisp had kicked a gl instead of the pt we would have won.

Well done to the Cats but whose assholes from Sydnjey piss me off the Bloods cdulture what a bloody joke, crumbled from the word go.

 

[soreplums]

Next season can’t come quick enough

 

[3rdMan]

It's a bit of a strange one. The Swans looked cooked today, just as they did in the last against us.

They're mostly a younger team, and have only played 3 games in 5 weeks, so no real excuse for them to be out of legs.

The way we've been running out games (probably the most impressive part of our season), I'm sure we would have put up a better effort, but would still favour the Cats. If we'd forced the aged Cats to go through an extra final, I think that could have been the difference to give us a real chance of going all the way. Oh well, interesting to ponder, but the season's done now, let's hope we have a strong off season.
