A penny for the thoughts of that poster who flipped from Brisbane to Geelong because we were so sh*t.

...and I'm the clever one, I flipped from Geelong to the so-called bad news Brisbane Bears when they were down and out yet I could see something that drew me in.......and not for one moment have I ever regretted it.
 
Does anyone know who was yelling and knocking on the door during Fages and Will’s press conference (I am assuming his initials may be DW)???

The thought of all of these catters knowing that Cam dished out some late pain and is a premiership player is sitting pretty well !!

We were talking about this last night.

So many happy lions supporters, some new some rusted on.

Does 17 years count as rusted on? Some of you lot are 30 years

Surely WE rusted on feel it differently to the members who joined in the last three years. We get a kick when we compare this feeling/era to some of the rubbish games we went to. The comparison feels as good as the win.

And some of the wins back then feel just as memorable. The miracle on grass, the 44 point win to get into finals, the trashed hawks jersey on the road after we beat them the first time in years. The goal celebratory hand shakes. Dan merrett. Brown and bike v the car.

Ahhh the memories.
 


I can get into the article but I can't see any ratings from my end, maybe you can. If not Foxsports have done ratings as well https://archive.md/B45N9

I’m not a religious man but I’m not sure I haven’t died and gone to heaven. Let me tell you about my last couple of weeks. I’d never been to a Preliminary at the MCG but I got tickets and I saw us beat the Pies. I was lucky enough to get tickets in the ballot for the Grand Final. I saw Greg Champion live at The Punters Club Hotel in Fitzroy on Friday night and yesterday I saw my Lions go back to back. It just doesn’t get any better than that.
 
The media really have no idea don't they? Wish I could get paid that much to spew shit.
They should consult the Footy Gods. They tipped the result early.
 
Neale playing as sub is the greatest tactical use of that sub role ever. So satisfying that it occurred against Chris Scott too!

So happy to be proven wrong re selecting Neale. Thought it was too good to be true that he was fit enough to play.

Everyone who played deserves such huge praise. Ill just mention a couple.

Levi Ashcroft played such a composed game for an 18 year old. His decision making and skill under pressure was so impressive. It's going to be fascinating to see what sort of player he develops into.

Jaspa Fletcher deserves so much praise, 95% of us thought he'd get sqeezed out of our team by Levi, but he'd be in the top 8 players in our team now. Just such a well rounded footballer. He would have been a worthy Norm smith medallist this year. (Will Ashcroft deserved it but!)
 
was amazed at how physical the team was yesterday. geelong couldnt buy an easy possession and just looked rattled by halfway through the second quarter.

i had a coach who once told me that the best teams in anything have a bit of campaigner in them and play on the edge - we've developed it in spades
Queenstown style
 
Wtf was with Chris Scott’s press conference. ‘We had challenges through the year we didn’t think we’d be able to overcome, we didn’t think we’d be able to compete’. Then when asked about it did not want to engage anymore about it. Bizarre behavior
He does that all the time. ‘If I told you about the unimaginable obstacles and countless unseen catastrophes we have overcome in dignified silence, because we are too humble and stoic to make them public, you would think we are gods. But I won’t even bring them up because we are humble and stoic.
Also, gods. Also we’d have won easily if not for the sub rule.’
