My 3310 lasted me 7 years until I finally dropped it one time too many and it smashed into a thousand pieces.

Well, who ever on here said that Richmond can't kick that straight again this year was right.

He is in my top two hated coaches.

The other being Chris Scott, right?

Best game I’ve seen since Carlton v Collingwood two games ago. 2022 has been amazing.

Couldn't have scripted a better way for Richmond to get dumped out of the finals. Sydney v Brisbane next week at the SCG should be another cracker. 

And the Lions play well at the SCG. Beat them there earlier in the year.

Tomorrow's a free hit now 😉

Yeah, I don’t doubt the result - but the process was a disaster for the AFL. Why have goal umpires at all if a guy without clear vision of it on replay can overturn it?

The vision to overturn was clearly inconclusive - therefore umpires call. 

One really annoying part of the goal review is the extra 2-3 seconds when they make the call, then say ... result on scoreboard ... seconds later.!

Surely they can just say decision is a goal, a point or no score.

[At the break of Gawn 4,460]

Insurance policy locked in. Can’t see us not being in a prelim now.

[layzie 33,793]

Write off Brisbane in a semi at your peril.

There’s been 150 finals played in the last 16 years and in only 2 of them have both teams scored over 100 points. That was an exhilarating game, but it wasn’t at all reflective of the contested intensity of finals footy.

[Stiff Arm 4,419]

Wanted to see who Zorko would blame had they lost. Will have to wait until next week

What is that blue wiggle wearing?? Jesus. 

can’t we take this [censored] serious please?

True

please continue your sartorial review of the mens suits

[rjay 24,916]

Joey kicks the winning goal, until then just about BOG for the Tiges.

Funny game football.

[Webber 10,465]

Might be a contender for most collective clangers ever …..both teams and the umps. Error-filled, high tension, undoubtedly exciting turnover-fest. 

[DubDee 25,814]

Are they the best camera angles we have for the lynch shot? That amateur. Surely there is a behind lynch. 

[daisycutter 29,612]

2 teams with leaky defences

They are all formal in navy /black. Nothing funny there to hang my hat on. But I’ll let you know if that changes!

Have a s*** one Tigs!

[Mel Bourne 4,515]

I can’t help but feel our venom towards Joe Daniher really spurned him on.
 

I’m glad that it’s the Lions through and not the Tigers. The Tigers supporters are many and insufferable, and the sudden quiet in the room is very agreeable.

Baker played on and took the advantage. You can’t change your mind half way through. 

There was no advantage to take.  He was immediately tackled.as soon as he took the ball...pretty much just after the ump had blown the whistle.  In that cauldron Baker probably didnt evem hear the whistle and by the time he realised it was their free he was back peddling to say "i'll take the free"

Also 3 times the Lions lifted the ball with an open hand to their fellow player in the first half and none were called for a throw or incorrect disposal.

Thought the umpiring got better as the game went on but the first half was dodgy as, in particular a number of frees against Brisbane that appeared to be conveniently overlooked.
