I love how the guy feels he has to walk down the stairs to give the double bird.

These even a Norf nuffie in the crowd getting really upset about things.

Re: The Moment: Semi Final, 2021 vs Brisbane

I kind of do too. Not because the kick made me believe it was on purpose, but because I can't see Caleb shanking a kick to that position.

He has stuffed up kicks before but I don't think he has ever kicked one where he was categorically not aiming (even his deliberate one was kind of what he was going for).

It reminded me of his kick to Bont late in the Sydney gave at the SCG, that led to JJ's sir at goal. Same pull across the body, seemingly aimless but hitting a teammate squarely on the chest.

100% that kick went exactly where Caleb wanted it to go.

At least 10 times here.

10 more times for me too Jazz.

Lord, Luke Darcy is atrocious.

Nah, not 100% sure he didn't just get lucky with that one. If he did it on purpose then I get down on my knees to him.

Have to laugh at Krock rolling their eyes at the 'ice in his veins' celebration.
whatever, he kicked it. Let him celebrate how he wants.

It's a pity Baz can't invent his own locally choreographed celebration.

All the last quarter moments posted already are on the money but for something different, Naughton's mark and goal from 50 when we were 3 goals down. He was probably a 3/10 chance to kick that but he recognised that moment and got it done. It lifted the team to think we were not out of it and started a momentum swing that got us back in front

Re: The Moment: Semi Final, 2021 vs Brisbane

Watched the replay last night. Another great moment for me was half way through the last quarter Naughton attacked a high ball and absolutely crunched Robinson.

Small thing but he a. Hit the ball with intensity and b. Reminded Robinson what it’s like to play footy. I feel we are a team that doesn’t often focus on the physical side and it was great to see

The CB hack marked by a Bulldog.

Looking at replay CB was making sure he did not give another out deliberate and saw Roarke with peripheral vision. Great kick.

Love to know the truth. If intentional how do you do that? Across the body pin point pass. Incredible!

Re: The Moment: Semi Final, 2021 vs Brisbane

I've re-watched the Daniel kick about ten times and really focused, and I gotta say I'm leaning towards him doing it on purpose.

It wasn't a hack, it was a drop punt and his eyes tell the story of what he was trying to do.

Re: The Moment: Semi Final, 2021 vs Brisbane

Hannan, really attacked the ball with some speed then handballed to Smith

The Hannan handball is probably not getting the kudos it should. Brilliant piece of work which had to be pretty much perfect at that speed and with that pressure.

JJ's goal late in the third gave us a sniff.
Hunter's centered ball to Macrae was big
Schache kicking what ended up a bizarrely easy looking goal to put us in front
Libba knock on to JJ, Hannan, Smith on the left....
VDM off Bailey smith scramble
Doc v Cameron.....

So many moments!

It really is a game of inches isn't it... conversely if we don't win there's so many moments where you think we have blown the opportunity to win with the 2 that stick out the most being:

* Doc spoiling Williams which led to the tying goal from Bailey
* Baz taking the advantage after the Treloar run down free and turning it over when we had a 8 point lead... Brisbane scored a goal from the next bit of play which was against the run of play.

Nice to come out on the good side for a change which was the result of standing up in the big moments which doesn't always happen.

Bont, Keath and VDM set shot misses also.

Loads of upside for us to cash in on Saturday night.

McCluggage in the third quarter missed three set shots, so works both ways.

Yeah but that's because of VFL bias at the AFL that makes the umpires make him miss those three set shots. Can't blame it on him/ Brisbane. It's the same bias that allowed Bont, Keath and VDM to score points from their set shots instead of kicking them out on the full.
