Review Grand Final, 2024 - Sydney vs. Brisbane Lions

[Ceebee]

I feel as though my old sliding doors post was misinterpreted - to me it has what has made this flag the sweetest of them all! I just cannot get my head around the fact we won it from where we came from is all. I have never been so relaxed about the next season. See if that lasts haha.

Seeing a few posts about dvds / blurays. Seems as though the most comprehensive one is one with the grand final with multiple commentary, plus the other 3 finals just standard? anyone have a link to that?

Silly question, how does everyone play them these days? We don't have a dvd player any more, do people still have one? i have never owned a bluray player. they both seem pretty cheap, i am more surprised people still have them, nobody i knows have them! or are people playing through laptops connected to the tv?

You can still buy DVD players

Two options.
1. Buy a traditional DVD/Blu-ray player
2. Buy a portable USB CD/DVD/Blu-ray to use on a computer

To be honest I just downloaded the torrents in the days after the game. One of them has the full replay from the AFL website in 1080p (Blu-ray quality) with about 7 or 8 different audio options. Including crowd noise only.

We have a PS4 and it plays both DVD and Blu Ray

One of the worst 50 metre penalties of all time.

A trigger-happy umpire wanting to have his moment

Even the commentators were all over it, pointing out that later in the game there were several incidents of Swans players running over the mark for no result.

But anyway, it makes our total dominance after that atrocity, even sweeter

Not only that. The number of instances where the Swans player elevated on the mark. Last I heard "stand" meant just that.

So you would be one of us on a pensioners card.

Is that you Butler.

I'd have to admit everytime I heard blakey I either say I'll get you Butler or Oh oh ohh.
You just have to.
Especially when it's just you the misses and the dog watching.
But yeah there's only my old mates that get it.
My new friends are like just turned 50 , they wouldn't have a clue who Olives was.
Poor soles.

That's bloody good. Probably the best of these I've seen (so far). The audio doesn't always quite match the vision but the research and thoroughness to go back through all the various TV and radio shows to find everyone writing us off is frightfully impressive

Brilliant work Jessica Kiss.

 

[SRH17]

Still brings me to tears.

 

[T Rick]

Fantastic work!

“How long are you going to celebrate this premiership?” - wife

“I copped a lot of sh&t last year, I have a right to celebrate as long as I want” - me

“Eye roll*” - wife

Also "we may never see it happen again."

And if you get accused of being overly dramatic, you simply need to point to St Kilda.

I copped a bit of flak in Sydney the other week for wearing my Lions clobber the whole time I was there... Was worth every second.

 

[Simbatheking21]

I’ve always been a humble person. I’ll never give sh&t to a Sydney supporter but after the crap I got last year from Collingwood and non Collingwood friends… I’ll f$&king celebrate this grand final for as long as I want haha

I was 16, 17, 18 when we did the 3 peat. Loved it but didn’t quite appreciate it. But this.. 2024… was the fu&king best. So many stories involved.

We did it boys and girls!!!!!! We f$&king did it!!!
