2023 GRAND FINAL

[Bates Mate 4,510]

Could have lost their 3 finals won all three sometimes just meant to be

[Smokey 4,389]

Umpires were genuinely atrocious today. That advantage call late in the 4th was a defining moment. I’d be punching walls if I was a Brisbane supporter.

Pies total winning margin in all finals

Season 2023 can go and just [censored] RIGHT OFF

 

Don’t let the door hit you on the way out Gil you absolute [censored] sucking garbage administrator. And take your ****ty umpiring, MRO and ARC with you.

Advantage Collingwood. Ridiculous Collingwood get the rub of the green yet again.

They really do stuf6 up the game a lot.

Don't know why I expect better in a gf 

[dazzledavey36 55,319]

That could have been us.

[bing181 9,328]

Lions only themselves to blame. That 50 to Sidebottom turned the game, but they just looked sluggish when they should have dominated around stoppages.

[BDA 22,875]

Hate to say it but the pies were the best team today and best team this year. They neatly kicked it away too.

[Gunna’s 2,104]

The umpires were woeful from the first bounce that went out of the centre circle. 
Brisbane should’ve had a lot more opportunities (or Collingwood less) which could’ve been the difference.

Was never going to be us. Always the Pies. Gil very happy.

[leave it to deever 17,517]

That absolutely no advantage / advantage pies call decided the game perhaps.

Fitting end to the season.

Well stolen filth.

[DubDee 26,117]

Berry should not play again. 

two 50’s for no reason

[Bitter but optimistic 22,246]

Certainly doesn't seem the sharpest tool in the shed.

This. He wanted a good feel story to end his endless reign of terror. Don’t forget pick 3 to Norf for McKay on your way out you piece of dog****.

They say stuff like the ‘four best’ but they are the same muppets from every week when mistakes and inconsistency are ever present. 
Just hope they don’t start umpiring the girls

[leave it to deever 17,517]

Let's be honest from arc to basic umpiring to brownlows the afl doesn't get much right lately.

Gotta change the advantage rule. If no advantage accrues bring it back for the free kick 

I think if that next player chooses to take the next kick advantage is paid. He should have stopped.

Can you believe Frampton is now a premiership player? The bloke did nothing.

Hipwood failed to fire and whoever was on hill hope that lives with you over the pre season. 

I was secretly hoping they'd snag another one & Brisbane win by 2 points. 

So frustrating. Pies kick badly but win a premiership, we kick badly & lose 2 finals 

[dl4e 5,851]

This is a [censored] nightmare.

ADVANTAGE!?!

[censored] ADVANTAGE!!

A player with two blokes on him. PUT YOUR [censored] WHISTLE AWSAY YIU DUMB [censored]

YOU JUST LOST YHE LIONS A FLAG

No matter how far it had gone, they just needed to call it back. Keep blowing the whistle. But nah, it's the pies and it's the show case of our game supposedly.

What a wonderful summation of where our beautiful game has gone.

Gil your are the murderer.

God, I don't know what I'd do if I was a lions supporter at the ground. I'd want to torch the joint.

[ANG13 2,066]

Maybe just maybe Collingwood’s game style does hold up in finals. 
 

This finals series really did just suck. 

[Webber 10,538]

I posted at halftime that the game would likely be decided by umpiring. And so it came to pass. The state of AFL umpiring is killing the game. For all the brilliant play, and players, all the work, dedication and teamwork, umpiring is simply making the game unwatchable. Congrats to Collingwood, but we’ll forever know there’s a huge, ugly umpiring asterisk hanging over this flag.
