Certified Legendary Thread Lions go B2B : Grand Final, 2025 - Geelong vs. Brisbane Lions

[Cursed Cat]

Congratultions Lions fans - great B2B effort, something us Cats fans haven't done in the AFL era (- 1951-52 shouldnt be discounted, great team)

Well Done, Much Respect.

 

[GenericUsername202]

Thought Marshall held his own in the first half. Absolutely no shame in being subbed off for Lachie Neale, either.

I think that was always the plan. I know Tom Morris is a bit of an idiot, but he got this one right. He said that the lions had a plan with Lachie Neale's sub and it looked like it went exactly that way. Stay in the game until half time, swap Marshall out for Neale and run it out from there.

Elixuh and scoman , take a bow.

Good win. Impressive considering the Victorian umpires wanted the cats to win

Thank you Mr Maniac

 

[JustaBattler]

BIG congratulations and well done by the Lions today - as expected Enjoy!

For nearly three quarters that was one of the great Grand Finals, and then Brisbane just did their thing, and it became amazing. Harris, Hugh, Jaspa, Charlie and Will for mine.

And Fages use of Lachie was a masterstroke.

 

[md20]

Im to busy to read or respond in any sort of logical way at the way moment but still wanted to get on here an celebrate it a little with everyone.

So all ill say is hahahaha how ****ing good was that.
The shit we had to go deal with, with injuries all season to then get on top of such a quality side in a gf in back to back wins.

This is legendary

What do you mean he wasn’t playing? I heard the commentators mention him.

 

[Zacs_Magic_Tooth]

Beats fluking a draw against North in front 5000 in Hobart.

That might have been the moat important 2 points all year

 

[SpecialBruce]

If we get a good run with injury we will shit it in next year

Just the other day someone in a footy program was saying that Martin's 3 norms may well be never matched.

Will Ashcroft : Hold my beer

 

[GenericUsername202]

special commiserations to Mathew lloyd and John Ralph

David King on Will Ashcroft 2 yrs ago : "I don't know... he's a small man.. lightly built... I'm not sure about him"

Lloyd must hate that he consistently bets against us and gets it wrong.

 

[martinson]

Share a thought for Starce. I hope that's not it for him but 2 flags under his belt so he's already a legend.

 

[SpeckieMcVeigh]

You guys are unreal to watch. I've been adamant in my belief that the only team that can beat Brisbane is Brisbane. That 4th quarter patch was the most dominant burst I've seen in a close grand final outside of 2021 Melbourne.

 

[Juice030103]

Never been more jealous of a side

Back to back flags. Draper Allen and annable all to come in the offseason

Half your list is young from today


Most of all, Will Ashcroft. Gonna be an all timer. Best hands below his knees in the afl at 21.

Congrats

 

[AM]

Congrats on a well-deserved comprehensive win. I thought you were the best outfit for most of the year, both in talent and age profile. And with some speculated players from other clubs and a couple of very good academy kids, you’ve got a lot to look forward to.

 

[martinson]

Just reflecting on it all the one word we have to apply to our group is Resilience. And Lists do win flags.

If you'd told me 4 years ago we'd win a flag with Oscar , Fort , Lester and Dizz in the team I would've laughed at you.

For someone like Dizz to have all the injuries he's had and come out and play the way he has for the last 3 weeks, sucking up pressure on multiple occasions in just unreal and a total credit to him.

And FWIIW there's no question that Harris Andrews

is the most valuable player in the game. He's the first player of ours any other contender would take if they had a choice.

 

[MSB ROYS]

Turn on Kayo or Fox now, the mid 3rd quarter onslaught is about to start.

 

[NewkTheLot]

David King on Will Ashcroft 2 yrs ago : "I don't know... he's a small man.. lightly built... I'm not sure about him"

Also the “expert” who said you should replace Fages with Scott mid-2024. Always best ignored

 

[Bucking Beads]

Watching the replay with my son and this might be the best moment ever. What a day. So proud of this group.

 

[janty]

Bailey would win the Brownlow if he played at any other club.

 

[Maboo]

Can't wait to hear the disbelief from the commentary team in the second half. Whately will be miserable .

I don't understand the dislike of Whately, I listened to the SEN broadcast while watching and he was good. he is always complimentary towards the Lions and has been likening us to Burnborough all season.
