leave it to deever

That ankle was bad. I think he played on after they taped it. Gutsy effort.

And I reckon we have the best. Look at the temperaments between the two. I hope Max is around for a while but I wonder who our next captain will be. It will be a tough act to follow Layzie, that's for sure. Well just checked the time and realised it's past Makers Mark on ice. Silly me. Good night chaps. Tx for the chats and news.

I've got a feeling the Blues will roll the Pies tmrw. Should be a good game. Sydney won't go above us. Saints will put up enough resistance. And of course the cats to go out of the finals in straight sets. Poor Mr Scott. They will really turn on him then. So sad😃

Good point. Please close.

Tx Dl. Answerth should have got 2. Anb was vomiting. What a sucker punch.

Langers should have appeared after the game in a neck brace.

Yea but swans are like us....they can score very quickly. As for crowd I'm always surprised at how many sth melb fans come out of the woodwork. But if we play like last night it's all semantics I reckon we will smash anyone and walk into a prelim then a gf on our hallowed mcg. It's not just the back to back aspect...it's winning at the Mcg that's important. Last years gf in Perth doesn't take anything away from the shine of the cup but it would be nice for supporters to go and watch. Finals are upon us and I even remembered this year to cancel kayo in time so Mr Murdoch can't buy any more ivory toothpicks. I'm no iconoclast...nothing wrong with making a quid but 25 billion of them seems a tad greedy. But that's just me and my conscience talking. Sorry bout that murdoch fans. I do like kayo and it's even fairly priced but once again I digress. Yes dees v swans in our first final. How exciting.

I guess it's almost a certainty we play Sydney but I suppose there is a small chance it could be Pies. Who do we prefer?

Good call. For it to be front and centre in the media would probably just add to his pain. Well said Jaded. I forgot he was Captain. Talk about hard up for choices.

I'd cancel just because of his mug.

We know..... but even better they know they will choke in the finals

Are Geelong really a number one team? They don't do well in finals. At Kardinia they have amassed 32 points from a possible 36. Does there home ground advantage make them appear better than they are. There isn't much of an adv having the mcg as a home ground because teams even interstate ones play there so often. Our travel record says a lot about us. I would relish another cats prelim or even granny.

Groundskeeper must have been spewing when he saw Anb vomit. Sorry...I'll see myself out.

Hope the media doesn't focus on Petty all week Ike I just have Let the Afl handle it. If Petty is happy with the outcome it's nobody's business.

Couldn't have said it better.

Tx Layzie. I feer the umpire had the same nature as your handle. I thought if you hold the man after he's been given a free it's auto 50. Well you dont hold a man more than a head lock other than pick him up by his feet and hold him upside down. And there's few zorko could do that to.

Just a few extra observations from the game. Third qrt umpiring was very poor compared to a good standard most of the game. Zorkos headlock on Langers was a a 50 m penalty every day the week. Zorko just annoyed he got tackled. Langers is getting back to his best. So is Rivers who was so cool under pressure. Tracca has not been bad but he played to a standard last night like we know he can. Bbb was bbb of last year. Clunking marks and kicking goals.....also moving down the ground and creating a comp or target. The inside 50 differential was minimal which shows are backline is back to its best with May and Lever doing what they do best. Lever's goal was a ripper and first with the club I believe. But also our fwd line was firing. Fritta and Kozzie have a great intrinsic sense of where the goals are. Oliver has got to be a favourite for the Brownlow. Viney has been working hard this year and Gus was OK last night but has been our most improved player this season by a mile. Jackson is so mobile for his size. Milk moving so well... has given himself at least another year or 2 at the club and I was dead wrong at howling down his constant selection Sparrow was good and is one tough player for his age. Hibberd on Cameron was the best call and reminded me how he makes some stars like Dustin Martin look third rate. Such an underestimated player and his early absence with so many other defenders in the season plus others later on has made it tough for our defence to be settled. Tmac back for finals could be a big inclusion if he plays his best. Harmes back in made a huge difference. Lions fans are poor losers.....constant booing of Dees players taking great marks and then lining up to kick a goal. Brown the commentator...Mr tough guy...no better having a dig at Petty being emotional. He was sitting bw Lyon and Roo who we all know both teared up after bad injuries. Our win was a statement .. we are going to go forward just as hard and good and win a flag on our home ground. Back to back lads. You can back it in.

Well it was zorko

Well done.

Same with Max. He could take down 3 or 4 players at once by himself but never does. Plays footy not the man. Poor lions they tried to rough as up and got eaten alive.

Hope so. A man can't have feelings.

Must have been nasty. He's as tough as they come. To make him cry ...a line was clearly crossed. I heard a rumours it was something about a family member. If so he's very loyal and protective.

Tough call. Salem probably will come back in but I thought bowiecwas good. Anb won't be dropped even if his form isn't great. Samecwith Spargo. Good to see bbb back in form. And Trac playing his best again.

We could be playing the cats again in a prelim. I bet Max would be smiling about that.
