Just watched the game winning goal for the first time since getting home, and as suspected, just a huge amount of luck in it. The oval ball literally bounced perfectly for them as they rolled the dice. One bounce either right or left(pretty common in this game), and we gain control and probably win. Not to mention an absolute spud ending up with the ball to kick the winning goal.

Kolt = Paul Chapman

Look, tough one for the umpires to see, but to suggest that Nibbler just took a dive over the line is garbage. It's a clear legging that was missed.

Actually, if you go back and watch the replay, Joe had a hold of his foot. That is why he fell over.

Finish 7-8 and win one final. That would feel more successful than 2022 & 2023.

So if Oliver goes and stands on the other side, does his opponent stay in that hitting area or go with him? I honestly don't understand this stuff, surely you are letting the opposition disrupt you without any adjustment.

The unevenness is they have half their team out

Let's get positive people 😅

Would have liked to have seen Petty go back once Lever went down, because he was useless up forward, but I guess we needed him as a back up ruck 🤷‍♂️

Go back and watch the start of the game. May clearly started on him, and Waterman ran him up the field like Curnow did. They made the change to TMac in the 2nd qtr.

May was on Waterman and couldn't go with him

Home cooking in effect No reward for tackling in this game. Umps have missed 3 or 4 HTB decisions already

How did Kozzy get a week for his hit to Soligo when he got up and kept playing, yet all these other hits like Newman and Warner are just getting a fine for the similar acts and impact? Garbage 🗑

Have we lost our edge? We seem completely uncompetitive, particularly through the middle and forward.

The club sent out an email right on the eve of the season with a window to buy tickets(booking fee) with your barcodes for both the Tigers and Pies game.

I think he's trying to say did we ever even get to watch Cook in a game? Horrible failure that pick. Did Darling going a few picks later?

I think it's a bit of a myth that the likes of Larkey and Mitch Lewis are young. They were drafted in 2016 and Larkey is turning 26 next year. He is right in his prime in the next 3-4 years, then he will be nearly as old as Steven May who most are predicting to fall off a cliff soon. North possibly get a tilt at a flag right at the back end of this period. I think it just goes to show how long it takes some of these KPF to really find their feet in this league, and is also why JVR did such a great job this season. I feel like he has a great chance to be just as good as these guys at even earlier age.

Go to the draft. Keep adding top end talent to a winning culture and we'll have sustained success.

I know that was the case(possibly said in jest), but you can hardly pin it all on Goodwin for just following the rules.

The sub rule in 2021 was for medical reasons only, so technically he could only come on for an injury, which there was none in the GF.

Probably received a call from Eddie prior to his decision

I find it hard to cop that someone has decided that the forward pockets are considered Catergory 1 tickets and sell the same as Level 2, especially when bays next to them are Catergory 2 and are selling cheaper. There are plenty of bays up on level 2 that should be allocated to Premium Demons supporters first as it is our home game. No different to how we have to sit GA on away games during the regular season. Absolute [censored] system.

Probably been said on here, but I am yet to hear it in the media. If Maynard could twist right to hit his shoulder into Brayshsw's head, why couldn't he twist left and possibly miss his head?

So is Level 1 considered Premium allocation for these finals?
