[bush demon 2,130]

Daylight robbery, insufficient intent what a joke. Result determined by umpires.

Mate, they don’t even have fans to car about culture 

They all drive electric cars, no power pionts to plug into in Greater Western Shizzen town

Gws have lost 2 prelims by a total of 1 goal.

You watch, next week daniher will butcher everything against Geelong 

Looks like I'm on the swans bandwagon.

Hahahahac other than us last year

We lost by a combined total of 9 points. How is that a choke? We didn’t go 44 points up against an interstate side at our home and lost. 

[DubDee 26,246]

Lions went 11 goals to 3

Truly pathetic from the Giants. Just play tempo footy.

Worse thing is soft sock Hipwood gets another game

Surely Brent Daniels didn’t hear the whistle when he took the advantage…

He made some shocking blues in last Qrt, fumbles and missed handballs

That free was bad IMO but they never should have been in that position. 44 up 20 mins into the third and 31 up 4 mins into the fourth.

I did think about our master piece of a finals series last year but we were too busy kicking behinds to get the unassailable lead the Giants had this finals series.

[Great Northern Summer 708]

Go Lions! What a comeback. GWS would have had the game sealed if the bloke didn't play on and kick it off the ground in the goal square, would've been a certain goal and all over!

[Big Col 1,349]

I feel sorry for both of the GWS fans, but that's what builds character and will make their eventual premiership win all the better.

corrected spelling of 'better'

Won them a few games himself this year but was awful tonight.

Carn the Lions!

What a choke from the Giants so far. 

44 points up!

Monumental choke.

Different scenarios, but both top 4 sides losing in straight sets by single figure margins when dominating both games.

[ElDiablo14 5,029]

Demonland officially cursed, we jinxed both GWS and Dogs 😅🤣

We finished fourth then kicked 7.11 & 9.17 to go out in straight sets by a collective 9 points. It’s hardly a stunning success.

Weird to think Geelong can repeat 2022:

1) beat Brisbane in a prelim at the MCG

2) beat Sydney in a GF at the MCG.

I’m kinda stunned that they still don’t have a crowd

[Beetle 4,692]

Zero interest in this finals series now. [censored] you Brisbane and [censored] you Zorko.

We never led Collingwood and we never played well enough against Carlton. 

GWS were 20+ points up at 3QT in both games, 44 up in the third and 30+ points up in the fourth. At home, against an interstate side.

[Timothy Reddan-A'Blew 5,505]

Not necessarily popular here, but...

Brisbane, please, please, please, beat Geelong.

Then, regardless of the Sydney/Port outcome, a non-Victorian GF. Beautifully unwatchable.

What a classic choke by GW$ thought that deliberate / insufficient intent decision just shows an absolute zero understanding of the game by the maggot - the guy was pushed in the back as he hit it as far forward as he could off balance. Critical timing.  

Correct. Taylor being pushed by Daniher under pressure and that’s called deliberate!!! FFS.  Umps don’t cost you the game but they do have some influence.
