The 2014 finals thread

seriously you would just want to hit boomer harvey wouldnt you. when he was having a go at hawkins, hawkins if he wanted to would just flatten him. geelong are playing woefully. They are missing targets, fumbling and turning it over.

 

Everytime I watch north and Richmond in the finales it make me sick because we were a head of them in our rebuild now there both playing finals and we are second last again on our 3rd rebuild.

We were never ahead of North, they always had the edge on us but we should have been somewhere near or approaching them now.

The signs have been there for a while. Their senior players have been making mistakes over the last year that show they don't have a lot of time left. Think the Mackie kick, Kelly badly beaten by Thomas early, Bartell ineffective, Enright making mistakes, Taylor not being allowed any space.

Of the kids Cady started poorly but really got them back into the game late in the first quarter, Duncan is going ok but the others have been unsighted. Murdoch 1 kick in a half of footy, Thurlow 2, Guthrie 2....

Think you might see more retirements after this game from the Cats.

 

Finally it's starting to show that players like Guthrie and Horlin Smith aren't actually any good. As bartel, Johnson, mackie and co ease down the rest look less than stars........fantastic. Go Roos.

Can't believe Norf are (in all likelihood) going to be in a Prelim.

Their supporters are going to be insufferable.


Immense result tonight for North if they get up. It'll only be the third time in 29 semi finals since the AFL introduced the non-costing-Melbourne-a-premiership finals system in 2000 that the team from the bottom half of the top 8 has won through to the prelim.

What is it about small forwards that make you want to slap them ( or worse ). Feel that way about Harvey and Thomas.

I just get the feeling that *if* Bruce McAveney was ever to curse live on air it would be to scream "Fark yeah" after a Geelong goal.

 

What I wouldn't give to have Joel Selwood at Melbourne.

But would we have beaten The Doggies or Sydney in the preliminary in 1998?

Let's draft Joel Selwood, he clearly seems unhappy at the Cats tonight

How did Swallow have prior opportunity? ? F me umpiring and commentating is poor.

Good decision, he put his head down into the player coming the other way. Not only dangerous but a free kick every day of the week.

They're ok but you can't replace champions a few are gone and a few are coming to the end. It will take a big q from Bartel, Kelly and Taylor to get the Cats out of this tonight. Do they have one last effort in them?

Disagree he had 0 prior duck or not.

Looking more likely that Geelong's season will be over in half an hour an Frawley can finally end speculation and leave as suspected

seriously you would just want to hit boomer harvey wouldnt you.

U could add Selwood to that too dees.

Funny how when it doesn't go his way he has a hissy fit!

Disagree he had 0 prior duck or not.

It wasn't a duck he charged the oncoming player with and put his head down as a battering ram. Free kick.

Again disagree, you still need prior opp to dispose of the ball, he had 0. Wrong call.

North are starting to look a bit unhinged.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    It’s late February. Two teams widely predicted to finish near the foot of the AFL table in 2026 face off against each other in sweltering 30-degree heat deep in outer suburbia in a match simulation with fresh new faces and uneven team numbers. There are no nearby sheep stations on offer; the result promises nothing more than bragging rights for the winner. Nevertheless, the loser appears hopelessly adrift, whereas the other seems to have found its footing after a couple of years of struggle – perhaps a hint at bigger things to come?
