I didn’t want him back then either. I feel the same about us getting Smith.I was right about Bruhn

I'd totally forgotten about that moment, that was so bad:Sometimes for players, especially forwards, they just need that little something to kick start their match and then everything flows - for Neale he looked to have the perfect chance in the second quarter for a set shot straight in front from like 30m, but instead Stengle stupidly jumped for a mark he was never a chance of taking & unnecessarily gave away a free kick
Both teams have weapons .Yeah initially I thought Sydney in a canter but the more I think about the game the the more I can make a case for Brisbane
They are just a better team on paper man for man, they are playing with freedom, they just got pipped last year and I am suspicious of Sydney away from SCG...
Grundy the key here, if he dominates Sydney will but if Fort can hold his own why not Brisbane
Either way the loss will be devastating for the loser
Runners up in 2/2 or 2/3 GF
Big pounce at it again.
Hard to know .I'd totally forgotten about that moment, that was so bad:
- Just uncharacteristic from Tyson
- Deprived Neale of a confidence boosting moment
- Deprived us of a likely goal
- Deprived himself (Tyson) of a chance to crumb in case the mark was spoiled.
The bolded part gets me. Maybe a rush of blood, like Fagan said we weren't finals hardened and he got a bit excited?
He the worst ump IMO.22: "He didn't have the ball"
Stewart: "But I didn't tackle him"
22: "It was unreasonable"
Luke Hodge: "Unreasonable? It's a Prelim Final"
sums it up. That wasn't an umpire watching the play and applying the rules. It was umpiring with prejudice based on a vibe.
I was sitting almost in line with the goalposts and from memory it was a fair way short. I mean, surely I would have cracked the sads if I thought it was close to being a goal, I just remember thinking "Neale sometimes doesn't kick it far enough"They showed the Daniher ‘mark’ in replay and the commentary team (and my eyes) thought it was a goal. I’m wondering why there has been nothing further said of it. At the very least there should be a please explain and a goal umpire dropped for not asking for a review.
He has a huge kick, but you are right. He sometimes "aims for" instead of kicking through. Confidence.I was sitting almost in line with the goalposts and from memory it was a fair way short.

What are you taking about? Is Longmire the best coach in the AFL was a legitimate question and talk about the game last night are all legitimate points. Time for the Zebras to see different perspectives…..
stop being sensitive and insular….
and thanks to GWS- the season's biggest underperformer, yet at the start of the season, I had Lions as my tip for GF, v GWSThats true and now sydney have an about 95 % chance thanks to us.
Rubbish award tbh. How can you count on the umpires giving correct votes when they can’t even umpire the game properly?Oh no it's the Brownlow today. I completely forgot.
Clear Mark from that vision
That's a Mark.
Why on earth is no one on the goal line?That's a Mark.
Poor form letting Daniher grab that.
If Brisbane beat the Swans quite comfortably, it will be pour even more salt on the wound.Just to rub some more salt into the wound, expected score has us 10 point winners
From the opening bounce the rules were applied very differently between the two teamsIf Brisbane beat the Swans quite comfortably, it will be pour even more salt on the wound.
Because the decision was correct, that's you're explanation. And the stills show that the ball was about 20cm in play.They showed the Daniher ‘mark’ in replay and the commentary team (and my eyes) thought it was a goal. I’m wondering why there has been nothing further said of it. At the very least there should be a please explain and a goal umpire dropped for not asking for a review.
The more I think about it, the more impressed I am with the Cats game Saturday night. They played out of their skins; it was just Rayner & Ah-Chee who took those moments in the last quarter to give them the game. That's football. Two major things happened that impacted our game. Holmes's injury and how Danger was after he did that sling tackle. It was like all he was thinking about was being suspended and missing the GF, and that affected his game, and he became fumbly and unsure. Those two moments were pivotal for the Cats. But the way the boys played for most of that match was inspirational. I'm so proud of them.
Haven’t read a lot of love for Ollie Henry- had a brilliant game considering his first quarter goal miss. Truly a big game player, and will only get better and more lethal.
