Mine didn't. Grew up in Brisbane during the Lions glory years and never could understand why they were forced to barrack for such a crappy team. Then we went down to the MCG for the 150th year celebration match against Collingwood. We ended up with seats in the Collingwood cheer squad. Fights broke out around them between magpie supporters. This experience galvanised them. We lost of course. So stoked they stuck fat. They're both up in Nth Qld and loving the way we are playing now. Very proud of them.

We complain so much about the standard of umpiring. Why would you be an ump? It's about as attractive as being an ICU nurse in Sydney. We have to look after them and start paying them properly to raise the standard. Just another reason why the grub should go

Gimme the cats. I would love to see them psychologically damaged. I would love to see them get their hopes up and then for us to dump them out the way West Coke did to us in 2018

Loved the vision of the Lions warm down post game. Everyone walking in circles while being drilled by their fitness team to bend and stretch out. The clown Mathieson was just walking around in the circle chatting to some bloke not even participating. Arrogance personified.

For me he was BOG tonight. Just relentless. Never gave in. He was what finals footy is all about. Just loving our captain right now

Have you put pants on?

From me too here in Northern NSW. Yell your guts out for us. Get them over the line and soak it all up.

Ooooh, I just twitched remembering all those over the back goals in past years

Geelong covid test. If you can't taste it, you've got the Rona!

Why were they booing Dangerfield? He was massive for Port tonight

I know what you mean. I may have to put some kind of time controlled pad lock on the beer fridge. Just adding even more to a bizzaro year

I just realised that Gil will get his dream of a night grand final!

R U an au pair?

I thought the only real non performer was Harmes last Saturday. TMac seems to have a history of taking a game or two to get his touch back. I'd leave him in. Buggered if I know really

I'm with you @Dr. Gonzo I feel for both of these guys. During the dark days, Jones going in and under and getting smashed Jetta matching up on taller players and having the ball come in at warp speed a few hundred times a game. Hope we include them both in ceremony somehow but unfortunately I don't think there's a spot for them in the finals.

The irony is this study spells bad news for one of the two brain cells https://www.thelancet.com/journals/eclinm/article/PIIS2589-5370(21)00324-2/fulltext P.s. I thought the bloke was holding a camera but who knows. Left wing / right wing crowds are all shoved in together in a garbage disposal at the moment.

The Great Southern Ocean is lovely and tranquil this time of year. Take plenty of beer in case you get becalmed. I have some fifty year old flares I can post to you to take as a safety strategy. If you have to get rescued, tell them you're from Geelong and complain about the rescue boat not being appointed appropriately.

Yes! The two things I kept yelling at the TV in the last was "run them off their legs" and "scar them"

Viney was back to his manic best. He's got his faults but the bloke would run through a brick wall in big games. Some amazing smothers and chasing. I love Kozzies work and just watching him play but bloody hell Spargo is underrated. Two goals in the last QTR. He's our smallest player and he tackles like a man posessed. I remember kids like that at school. They were small and they would hit you like a freight train. Charlie has a point to prove. He's not flash but he's as hard as nails and super smart. Best win ever! The lid is off and I'm going to embrace the next four weeks as something to really cherish with this team. Go Dees and thanks to everyone on Demonland for their company.

That was a great piece where he quickly ran up to Max after he took the mark. Gave him a pat on the chest and a quiet word in his ear before he lined up to seal it. Bloody nice pitching wedge by Lever into the forward line too.

I don't think there was one HTB or incorrect disposal paid against the cats all night. Must have been influenced by the fake crowd

When you go back and watch the replay. If you listen closely as Max takes the mark, you will hear Matty Richardson go "oh f**K" under his breath, hillarious Shed a tear at the end. One of the greatest victories I've seen for this club. For our belief coming into the finals, we had to respond after half time. What great momentum we have going in now.

This could do their heads in.

C'mon minor premiership first time in my 54 year old life cmon

We need to run them off their legs
