Demon Dynasty

Billy was in disbelief this morning on the Footy Show. Said he woke about 5 times having nightmares about the finish

Danger nearly ironed him out too with a shoulder early. Lucky Clarry had some awareness to spin away at the last half second

Not sure about the beautiful part but I'll take the crazy thanks WC

I had a true to life dream we played them in a GF about 3 years ago (obviously relating to something that was due to happen in the future) and the game was still undecided with 5 minutes to go! Pretty sure it was at the G though.

No thanks the wind down there which is often 2 to 4 goals would make the win of the coin toss too significant on the outcome.

What's wrong with playing our first final at the G?? We've earned that right. Why has everyone caved and pandering so easily to the AFL's interstate nonsense? If we win that one we should also be getting our Prelim here. And from there IF we get through we then talk about where the GF is played where you would of course prefer a BIG crowd. We've thoroughly earned this choice. Eddie/Jeffrey/Kochy would all be blowing a gasket at the mere mention if they finished on top. Happy to stand corrected but appears to me we might have conceded already?

No he literally shoved him in the throat region and nothing in it. Not even worthy of a reversal. Except as we all know, they're a special lot that receive special treatment down at the Cattery.

Rnd 23, 2021 GMHBA - Cats vs Demons I don't think many saw that coming. Even the Cats! Mr Faithful finishes with another No.1 ranking. His equal 2nd best score for the season matching his Rnd 20 6.90 against the Suns. While not his best game (statistically) for the season, that was in Rnd 10 vs the Crows. Where he almost single handedly got us over the line in scoring an off the charts 8.40 Having said that this was probably his most important for the year in many ways. Lever's second half was super along with Max's last quarter and a half plus the winning goal after the siren. Thought Stanley was all over him in that first half and much of the reason the Cats pounced in the 2nd term. Personally thought Max looked shot at half time so proved me wrong and quite a come back. While Harmes was Mr Fumbly bumbly in that first half i thought he stepped up in the second. Then there was Kozzie. Gave us the class we needed at times tonight. Very nice game from the young rookie who also tackled and pressured hard this evening. The biggest worry from tonight's match....Macca, who barely laid a glove on the ball unfortunately. Is he really fully recovered? Didn't look like it tonight. Who comes in if he isn't able to get up this week? Now for our well earned home final against the Lions at the G! (if wishes were horses)...

I need one after that! And a little nip of Nan's brandy. Actually she prefers Cognac, even better

Talking of Selwood....what the hec was the game stopped for when he went off the ground with about 7 min to go?? I saw no blood and thats about the only reason the ump stops a game for a player to come off.

No he was actually pretty philosophical and even mentioned the deliberate against Gus just before being strange. Pretty fair & classy overall i thought.

Leave something in the tank in case we win the big one WC

Out of 6.5 million that's like a rain drop in the Pacific ocean. Makes no difference really they're in a bubble and no crowds. They've been playing here through cases (off and on) for the last 6 weeks or more. Time to step up and demand what we've earned by finishing first.

FCS Perty put your foot down mate and make sure that first final is here!!

Crazy shiiit. That 2nd quarter was as bad as we've played all year and then to win from nowhere. And we won with so many having a shocker. Thank Lucifer for Clarry!! Just refuses to lie down.

No he's been awful

Exactly....at least 3 times tonight. Once just before in our 50 but no free

Fritta's gone from 7 to crap in one week.

Traccs lack of effort to chase there was deplorable. One of his worst games tonight.

Is there any chance Max doesn't tap the ball forward? Its so ducking predictable

Finally some link up play.... and guess who finishes

Geelong.... clean hands AND... Composure / foot skills with ball in hand. We look like amatures in comparison.

We fumbled all night. They've come in to this severely off their game

Seriously if Max wasn't Capt he'd be on the Changes thread this week he's been bloody awful

Max & Macca have concrete boots on tonight
