If anyone doubted Gawn's ability as a leader that should be completely put to bed after his last quarter tonight.  As great as Oliver was, Gawn was the momentum changer in the last.  Jackson was a non event tonight and Gawn's last quarter was one of the great Captain's efforts.  For those who followed footy in the 80's, that shot at goal after the siren might bring back memories of 1987 final round.  Steve Kernahan had to do the same as Max to seal top spot for Carlton.  He did, and it probably won them the flag.  Let's hope history repeats.

Now that my heart rate is below 160 bpm, have typed effusively into Demonland, have marched around my house with arms in the air as if I kicked the winning goal, and the family have gone to bed - I have 2 confessions to make:

1. At 3/4 time I said to my oldest son (21 yo) that the 2021 Dees can kick 6 goals to 0 in a quarter but I couldn't see it happening.

2. I couldn't watch Max kick for goal. I just couldn't. 

Sitting here at my laptop right now, I feel really good, and can't wait for the finals to start. 

P.S. - is it wrong that I would like to see a picture of Selwood's face after Max kicked the goal?

It was said tonight that this was the very first time that the Cats have lost at Kardinia with such a big lead in the 3 rd quarter ! Kudos Dees 

Heart slowly returning to normal . I thought I was about to burst my aorta

I've dreaded games in Geelong for so long. So much misery attached to games there. One of the great wins in the history of our club. Hopefully, defines the season and an era.

Couldn’t be more right.

Apparently that was the last time a captain kicked the winner after the siren. And yeah, they won the flag that year.

What did he say, he couldn’t possibly have complained about the 50m penalty…

Yep

Haven't seen one of those paid in a while, strange one 

But also that the deliberate OOB was also a strange one

Hence it was a "comedy of errors"

My daughter did video mine and it’s now on Facebook getting all the lols. My [censored] crack is visible in one. Don’t even care. I’m hoarse.

My two kids (8 and 6 yo) were going nuts. My 8 year old said his legs were still shaking 5 minutes after the game
