AFL Game Day Finals 2022

Yeah they can’t whinge about the umpiring this time.

The spirit of the Collingwood team is absolutely breath taking. Such belief and heart.

They're as dumb as shit and will point to the Pies getting more free kicks.....which is dumb as shit.

Bit harsh. They haven't gone on and on and on about the 2016 GF.

I know a few swans fans and wouldn’t even know that the free kicks in 2016 were a thing if not for this site. Swans fans seem pretty good. At least those I know. Maybe cause I only hang out with really cool people?!

It's probably more that because you're a rational functioning human, so are your friends.

If you go where the wild things are you're never too far from a #freekickbulldogs

There were some shocking umpiring decisions. The Papley one, the 50mt penalties. Those umpires should spend the rest of their careers working out of the country leagues. Suggest Northern Rivers League - you know, the rivers they have on Cape York.

If Sydney don't win next week I am going to be ropable.

Pies were gifted several umpiring howlers which we won't hear about - Mihocek mark in the last qtr, De Goey non HTB in the final 30 seconds, Crisp non HTB in the final minute. Papley mark was lucky but it was also shit defending by Moore and Quaynor not to kill that ball.

The key moment of the match was Sam Reid subbed out. His injury freed up Moore to rebound mark and take the game on, and it also forced Sydney to use mids like Mills and Heeney in 2nd ruck when Hickey was resting, which directly cost them stoppage goals such as the Josh Daicos one in the 3rd qtr to get Collingwood going. I hope he is right to play next week because Hickey/Reid could destroy Stanley/Blicavs at stoppages next week and give Sydney a lot of clean F50 looks.

Reid was a huge structural loss but he also had a goal and 5 score involvements on the board before he was subbed out. An adductor injury at his age going into a GF would be a big risk.

When push comes to shove, fark Collingwood.

They are a brave, gutsy team but their supporters are unbearable.

Swans stopped taking the game in in the last qtr and nearly paid the price. They were very conservative and slow moving the ball.

Yep seeing those Collingwood heads in the crowd brought back memories for me when I used to go to Victoria Park. Win...mostly for them...or loses you were hit with cans, spat on, challenged to a fight....and this was before the match ended. True story. I'm sure others on WOOF have their stories too.

His marking in the forward line exposed the short backline that Collingwood have.

If we won against Freo I was straight up not going to the semi. Pretty much every bad experience I’ve ever had at the footy has happened to me at Collingwood games.

Yeah, I am only going to Pies games with my headphones on from now on.

Essendon for me, but Pies a close second.

I remember this absolute mongrel mocking my wife constantly during the 2010 QF everytime she said Go Barry (Hall). He would mockingly repeat it..


Only time I've actually had a physical encounter is 2015 EF, I left with about 10 seconds to go as I didn't want to hear that Crows song (97)and as I was walking out up the ground level Ponsford stairs a Crows knob stood up and whacked me in the face with his scarf.

This could be a good thread!

A scarf fight. I love it.

[josie]

A scarf fight. I love it.

Kinda like an Aussie Morris Dancing act? Some supporters are low life. They reflect their own lack of self worth by mocking others. Sad, sad little people.

Haha Still annoys me. Tassels can sting!
