Yeah, it sucks, but don’t give me umpiring. There were a handful of blatant Collingwood frees that weren’t paid late (the Moore high and the HTB on Idun were horrendous misses).

If GWS got shafted it was by having to have a 6 day break into this game. There’s no need to ensure the top side gets 8 days into the GF. 7 is enough. But the drop from 7 to 6 is more severe and GWS shouldn’t have had to deal with that.

But in the end, Collingwood have been the best side for the majority of the year, so it’s no real surprise or shame that they’re in the GF.

AFL approved victory there with the umpires getting them over the line. Repeat head high tackles ignored. Repeated holding the balls ignored. 

Watch Carlton get the umpire ride into the grand final now. The afl would be frothing at the thought of the $$$ of Pies vs Blues.

There is no karma in footy. 

I suppose Maynard knocking Cox out in friendly fire and the Pies losing by a point next week would be karma

Worst umpiring ever. Even the commentators couldn't hide their disbelief at some of the decisions.

Disgracefully umpired game both ways

Paid half frees of a normal game, was twice as intense with heaps more frees payable than normal 

 

Nick Daicos jumper punch won’t even be mentioned.

I won't be watching the GF, let alone attend. (I'm an MCC member.)

I want to see Brisbane smash them.

Half way through the last i thought pies just told to go hard and dirty abd tge crowd/ umpires will fo the rest. And so it was to be. Even Richo saying you gotta pay them when they are their. Hodge is a suc.  Looking for a career higher up. Brayshaw, well he was crowd gazing and sniffing the breeze

Such a hard week knocking out an opponent, when he could have knocked out two. Thoughts and prayers.

Did the AFL change the rules during the week???

High tackles, Throws, Trips all OK

Pretty sure throwing's legal now.

What a bummer 

That last quarter was intense. The umpires terrible. Absolutely terrible. Missed at least 4 very obvious frees.
 

Greene will be having nightmares with that non scoring shot at goal.

I actually think he looks quite feminine and it's not because of the long hair.

And then you get hit with a sudden bolt of inspiration to take up a long abandoned hobby

I feel sick. To see the most vile and gutter water club and fan base enjoy a winning prelim and now a Grand Final on the MCG? These disgusting pigs?

Sick to my stomach.

Think again.... they may make it IF the umps don't kill them in the process but they have a woeful record at the G

And just to rub salt into the wound we should have beat them two weeks ago.

This season feels much worse than when we were complete trash.

Surreal.

That could have been us.

So good to be in northern NSW.

I just have to avoid the one magpies supporter in the village..... for about the next year at least.

Collingwood 2 finals and not the better team in either of them. Everything goes their way. Just might be their year but if lions get there as the should and play to the anywhere near their best they win comfortably

Sure but he could've used his left. The mid air banana would've been. Goal of the century if you can pull it off. Very low probability 

 

Edit: Actually left was very low probability too. Pressure was too high.

Did his best.
