I reckon it's been gripping. Turnovers galore and not much scoring, but it's absolutely intense. 

I can't imagine our skills being slick on a night like tonight. Every possession would be 'wobbly'

Geez Murdoch is soft

Hard to believe we're watching 2nd vs 3rd. Pressure is intense but skill level and gameplans are absolute horseshit. This match should be used as an example of what is wrong with the modern game.

This is what makes my blood boil. If this is the 2nd and 3rd best teams in the comp, the competition is [censored]. Even St Kilda have played more scintillating footy at times this year.

If we'd shown up, this could easily have been our year of making it all the way. The comp will only be more even and more difficult next year.

Cats fans annoyed about the home crowd advantage here for Tigers, might want to blame the city of geelong for not planning to expand the population to 3 million over the last century

Geez Martin is so much better than dangerfield 

[Lord Travis 10,793]

Tigers have a big enough lead to hold on here. Must feel sweet for Tigers fans after all this time. Hope it's our turn next!

[Uncle Fester 2,848]

Has Dangerfield hit a target all night? He is choking worse than a porn star.

[monoccular 17,650]

That was a great individual effort by Bikie Jnr to set that up.

[BAMF 4,450]

Tigers have got this.

[Ethan Tremblay 31,243]

Martin's disposal and decision making shits all over Dangerfield's.

Are the tigers that quick? Or are the cats just that slow?

No way, Geelong are one of the only clubs that can kick 4 goals in under 5-10 minutes in a final. They can't do much else though.

It's a shame our club was ran by monkeys when we decided not to draft dusty

The latter.

I'm saddened that our record of winning a final more recently than Richmond looks set to expire, but credit to them. They've turned themselves around while we continue to wallow in the misery that is Melbourne. We are the new Richmond.

[Lord Travis 10,793]

This game shows we need to get more speed through the middle and front half of the ground. Outside of Jeffy we've got bugger all.

Dion Johnstone, and another? Less inside midfielders in the forward line hey. We need players who have natural manic pressure and can do it all year

Bugger. So wanted tigers to go out in ss

If Motlop can kick 3 or 4 and help get Geelong over the line, will we finally consider him as a RFA worth a punt ?

Yuk.

I can't recall a kick of his tonight that hasn't gone directly to a Richmond player.

Dion Johnstone is a long shot to make it at AFL level. Our current 22 lacks speed and skill. It's too heavily weighted towards grunt. The finals matches last night and tonight showed what wins in the modern game. Speed and skill.

We should be making quick outside midfielders and quick half forwards our priority over the off season. We are overly stacked with inside midfielders, and midfield types such as Neal-Bullen and Harmes who float between roles instead of nailing one down.

[Wadda We Sing 10,685]

Richmond Sydney GF??

[Lord Travis 10,793]

Jeez Motlop has been awful tonight. Wouldn't bother with him as a Restricted Free Agent.

Tigers have smashed them in the end. What a weird and rubbish match this was. Enjoy the win Tigers fans!
