The Super-Critical Grand Final Thread

[Judd2Sewell]

Lake and Gibbo allowing Buddy to out mark them both in the goal square. Terrible stuff

How was that not pushing in the back?

 

[Hawthorn23]

When McEvoy spoilt an easily markable ball out of bounds in Sydney's forward line during the last quarter. The game was still on the line with us being about 8 goals ahead. Almost cost us. Play him ahead of Ceglar again and I'll cancel the membership!

Hannebery wasn't hurt enough when we tackled him.

Tackling bags out all preseason. Not good enough.

 

[LurkingHawk]

Our tackling pressure and hunt for the ball totally dropped off after the fourth quarter.
Just as well we were ten goals in front. Sheesh.

 

[Footy 1st]

How about the fact that Franklin didn't bump Malceski slightly late & slightly high forcing him to seek medical attention and outraging Swans fans.... He's lost his competitive edge!

 

[eldorado]

Isaac Smith fumbling to give Goodes a goal in the last quarter

Silk missing a bump to set up Buddy for a goal in the first.

Not good enough.

Hey, Hodgey, what sort of kiss was that on Buddy?

You needed to kiss him on the lips - put some passion into it mate!

At least buy him dinner first

 

[Wandering Hawk]

Didn't blood enough kids in the finals.
Clearly getting too old.

Not good enough.

Just watching the post match presser with Clarko & Hodge.

The ribbons on Luke's Premiership & Norm Smith medals are all tangled. And the medals make a clinking noise when he shifts around in his seat. Very distracting.

 

[JustKickIt]

Cyril plays 1 game in 8 weeks and he still can't last the full Grand Final. What a wimp.

 

[rjslcM]

We let Hannebery and Grundy near us on the tackle and one percenters count.
Hodge had the most clangers on the ground. Please lift next time mate.

 

[ilmc]

Our tackle count is too high. If we need to lay a tackle, that means we don't have the ball. Not good enough.

 

[Agent Smith]

Luke Hodge hogging all the medals yet again!!

Geez, you're the captain, mate. How about setting an example?

 

[Footy 1st]

Gunston 2 contested marks?!? Sydney had the top 4 in this stat...why wasn't Gunny clear???

 

[Davo-27]

1. Sam Mitchell: when you kick for goal, don't diddle about, pick the left or the right and have a short, man. Go back, line them up and kick!

so now you want to drop Sam Mitchell?

i think you need a good look in the mirror

and what is with the short reference? is that a short joke?

*opens Goon-Bag

[Hawthorn United]

We went scoreless in the last 5 minutes. Don't think that's good enough.

 

[Xtreme]

Either Channel 7's audio was crap OR they were not loud enough when singing the song in the change rooms at the end (compared to last year anyway).

Scream it out fellas

 

[grumbleguts]

There was a point where Matt Spangher was jogging forwards, all the swans near him were on the ground. He could have just run on and kicked a goal. Instead he just mounted some stairs and put some cap on a little kid.

 

[Wittman10]

Rubbish GF. All over half way through the second quarter, AFL won't stand for that sort of behaviour.

 

[badgrill]

Lazy Poppy kicking that point from 50 out after zipping through 2 stagnant Swans.

The crowd roar that went up made me think it was a goal and I had to embarrassingly sit back down on my couch, and clean up my spilled (beer).

So double criticism there, Poppy...

But then we wouldn't of seen that lovely chip pass from Rohan to Hodge. Perfect pass.

 

[Davo23]

Previous Grand Finals I've been able to pick out a game-winning quarter and watch it over and over.
With the 2014 Grannie, I have to watch every damn quarter to see all the highlights.

That means I have spent hours watching this game over and over.

Damn you, time wasting Hawks.

 

[Wandering Hawk]

Hawks Grand final btb has made all the Cats supporters start to claim that flags in alternate years are a bigger achievement.

Until this everyone respected all those btb flags in the code's history.

Causing people to disrespect the games past. Just not good enough Hawks.

 

[Wandering Hawk]

Our first flag without a number 23 on field.
No respect for our past.
Not good enough.
