POSTGAME: Rd 23 vs Brisbane

[Jibroni 4,342]

Simply awesome.

Think Swans have to win by about 45 points to knock us off 2nd.

[layzie 30,305]

Winners are damn grinners!

[Bring-Back-Powell 13,623]

If the Saints can keep things to a respectable 7 goalish loss, then we’re back at the G for finals!!!

Zorko is my new poster boy of hate!!

[Chook 14,647]

Bradshaw yakking about the treatment of Zorko by Melbourne but not wanting to go near Zorko’s two headlocks and some clearly not right sledging. Total misread by him.

Thanks Maxy for listening to me yesterday when I told you not to stuff up our top 4 chances

Is there a table somewhere that shows the scores we need in the St Kilda and Sydney game to hold on to second spot?

I think about 10 goals

Great win, but FFS Jaded and the others having a whinge about Brodsky getting the last two goals have a good look at yourselves absolutely pathetic 

I doubt very much as a club we would be happy with conceding some soft goals in the last. 
I would hate to play Sydney at the SCG and so would the club.

We just love playing Brisbane, don't we.

Before tonight they'd lost three H&A games at the Gabba in three years. Season on the line, many had written us off (they went in favourites with the bookies), and we held the highest scoring side in the comp to 17 scoring shots, four of which came in the last five minutes.

After the Dogs loss we had Fremantle (away), Collingwood, Carlton and Brisbane (away), and went 3-1 to secure top 4 (with the only loss being a tight game where our opponent kicked super accurately).

Finals start in a fortnight, but unlike most of our competitors, we've been quietly playing our own finals series for the last month.

We're ready to go.

[Seraph 1,728]

So that's essentially confirmation from Richo that Zorko has said something about Petty's family that was enough to bring him to tears.

What a disgusting human, let alone a captain of an AFL team.

Sydney will need an 8 -10 goal win, depending on scores Saints kick

Who is mathematically able to work out how much Swans need to win by to overtake us?

Around 3.4%

[sisso 2,431]

Well done to the boys

[BDA 20,895]

Go Sainters

[Bang Bang Bang 5,597]

Do we even want to play Sydney at the G? We are basically unbeatable interstate on TV in royal blue. 

[Sir Why You Little 35,321]

What did Richo say? I have no sound 

Something happened with Petty…

You know nothing about footy if you think that

[layzie 30,305]

We own the Lions

[Demon Disciple 11,194]

I can save everyone the panic, coz the Saints are gonna get over the line 😁

It was something Zorko said. 

Maysie was giving him a verbal as he was coming off. I also saw him mouthing ‘That’s bull poo’ to Choppers (although it was the more explicit version). Some home truths must have been said to get that reaction.

If it is Zorko, he needs to pull his bloody head in. This isn’t the first time he’s been in trouble for exceeding the bounds of good sportsmanship.

We own that team

[DubDee 21,925]

That performance had a beautiful 2021 Finals feel about it!!!

Oh my lord, do we dare to dream? 

What an amazing friday night!!!!

Are you serious?

(PS not sure about the premise of your argument anyway. We're 7-0 on the road, whilst 5 of our 6 losses this year have been at the G, including to Sydney).
