What a game. Incredible.

It’s starting to get that swans vs cats GF

I'm afraid you are right. I search for answers and I can't find any explanation apart from what you suggest. Where are our mongrels? Where are our desperates? Where are our "take no prisoners" types? Where are our barbarians? It hurts big time.

Great post. Yes we are lacking severely in all those types.

Giants still a chance. They'll have to probably go to Brisbane and then G but I think they were desperately unlucky. Heeney and Warner took it away from them with individual brilliance.

Stirring seeing that sort of resolve from a team that looked soundly beaten then find something when challenged and fight their way back through adversity.

Must be ace.

Damn, Heeney seems like a ripper of a guy.

Brisbane would play in Sydney if they win.

That was a proper final

13.10.88
12.10.82

GWS suffering PTSD from that scoreline, eerily similar (1 point off) from a certain PF in 2016

Brayden Campbell for mine was the spark.

He was very impactful - perfect sub.

I loved some of James Jordan's work late as well. Was involved in most of their scoring chains in the last 10 mins.

Gee GWS were stiff. They couldn't have done much more to win that, just some off the charts individual brilliance got Sydney home. Not sure that is sustainable in a GF if Sydney make it - they need a much more even spread of contributors.

Morris is a good pick-up by the Lions. Werribee boy via the jets.

Like.

Zorko has been immense for the Lions

Carlton logic:

- Ask Kennedy to leave his newborn and play. Makes a last minute dash to the Gabba. Starts, but is subbed out tactically in the second QTR.

- Declare TDK fit to play. Start him as sub. Comes on and has more of an impact than the rest of the side.

Crazy moves. I can't believe they dropped Cincotta too.

How's the difference between a Lions home final and a Dogs home final.

If it was a Q clash final they had to play at Carrara then you'd get what we copped.

They'll stay in Sydney, as they finished fourth.
