Is Port's Prelim choke the biggest choke in modern football?

[Maddogmetro]

Top of the ladder all year.
Media loving them all year.
Home prelim, with the chance of a non-MCG grand final.
MASSIVE CHOKE.

I think it's obvious the answer is a resounding yes - it was the biggest choke in modern football.

I look forward to friendly discussion about this.

Their 2007 no-show was pretty bad. Ablett even had hair!!

Nah. The pre finals bye advantages teams that don't get the week off.

Statistically you're better off losing the first week.

The one where the captain booked an empty seat for the premiership cup to sit next to him on the way home rates highly.

Looks like the OP has run out of cocaine and is suffering from withdrawals. Crouch & Stengle no longer providing for ya mate? Maybe plastic wrap around your face might help instead? Big Tex can spare you some there.

Yes massive choke, not tagging Dusty was supercoach Ken Hinkley's first and only mistake

Port has a list stacked full of young talent, has enormous upside, and you'd think will be top four again in 2021. I think Port exceeded most people's expectations in 2020. So not really a choke.

I'm old enough to remember Adelaide Crows finishing 1st and 2nd in 2005/06, and didn't make either grand final. That was a choke.

No, Port's wasn't a choke. A choke is when you're in a dominant position to win, then somehow fall in a hole and lose.

Collingwood's 2018 GF is the biggest (and most satisfying) choke in modern football.

 

[NetworkNerd]

I thought the odds were fairly even for the prelim or close enough (1.80 for Port?) That isnt a choke. A choke is being 1.40 or better favourites and losing.

Token sympathy post for the biggest frontrunner in the Bae

Nowhere to be seen during the season when the Camries won the spoon

So he shouldn't have gone in hoping to win you Muppet?

Richmond were paying $9 to win by 40 or more in 2017

If we played you in Adelaide that year like port did this year how different s**t would be.

Yes, "hope"....... just like Jenkins with this comment about Dangerfield

But if he marches into town with his Geelong teammates, there’d be nothing better than beating him and reminding him that perhaps he should have stuck around with us and he could be a Brownlow Medallist and a premiership player.

And speaking of muppets, how are the Crows going with that trade for Fyfe?

Wait........ you desperately attempting to deflect from your spoon win isn't the topic? Could have fooled us

Nowhere does it say fyfe traded to Adelaide fktard. He was in Adelaide the week after my name was written so eat a bag of dicks. The fk cares what Jenkins said? Seems to me you flogs think players aren't going into games confident they will win; after beating a team by 11 goals earlier in the season especially.

Yet you pasted the Crows logo on his bare chest....... wait, you're not a Bender alias are you?

I would put the puffers 07 choke first

You mean the year Geelong finished 3 wins clear at the top of the ladder?
