AFL 2016 Preliminary Final - GWS v W.Bulldogs, Sat, Sept 24, 5.15pm

[Off The Couch]

No lets be honest for one second, the Dogs wouldnt have got past the Eagles without the bye and then the Hawks would have demolished the Eagles...

But hey im ******* happy they did have the bye...

I couldn't care less either way - it's something the media will run with
No guarantees in any of the scenarios - imo Hawks have looked tired for weeks so the Eagles may have got over them but that's more about the game style than anything. Bevo did his homework on all three sides and while the swans should win, bevo will have a plan in place for them

Brilliant stuff. Great call BT.

Your kidding right? Mr Cliché BT was absolutely atrocious tonight. Worst commentator ever, ever.

 

[Vhaluus]

I didn't see any throws tonight? It's obviously something they've worked hard on and maybe more AFL teams should follow suit. Teams are always fighting for that edge, especially in a competitive 18 team comp. Good on em I say

If you didn't see any throws you obviously don't have a clue about the game. Even the commentators were forced to admit to a few.

 

[Brunswick Trap King]

Lol Go Dogs

Lol go Swans.

 

[Big Blood]

I'm terrified of going in as unbackable favourites.

On the upside will be the outpouring of emotion for the Swannies. Our last flag was three prime ministers ago.

 

[Zevon]

You may be surprised. Plenty will.

Hope so... The way the media build it up it's going to feel like Sydney vs The Universe

 

[Meths]

Isn't it interesting that the top 2 teams in the first couple of rounds are now in the Grand Final? Goes to show that starting off the season well goes a long way in terms of confidence.

It sure worked for North.

 

[The Filth]

To the Adelaide and West Coast ******s carrying on about McLean ducking and umpires - the rules favour the player that actually gets possession of the ball.
Either go and get the ball first or if McLean has it tackle around the hips and there is no problem.
West coast have Duckwood...Crows have their own stagers too.
Geez if you can't appreciate a game like that without focusing on umpires - go and support another sport ya clowns.

Sorry Edit typo - West Coast had Duckwood - one of the instigators.
(Still have Shuey also a ducker.)

 

[Aucklander]

What a game, what a ******* game. Congrats to both sides who can both be proud they put on such a show.

Fantastic to see Leon Cameron amongst the Bulldogs players congratulating them and the passion of Libba Snr was pretty special.

Agree..like the BT call tonight that the Dogs have now hit the front with a goal when they were already one point up!

 

[Leigh Lowther]

Well, umpires got their result today... AFL is more rigged than wrestling.

This is meant to be a sport but it's run as an entertainment show where the narrative outweighs the integrity of the competition.

Just utterly, utterly disgraceful.

Dellusional

 

[Vhaluus]

Dellusional

Yes you are, +200 free kick differential.

 

[The_torpedo]

Is that the sound Of Gil smashing things?

Just like Vince McMahon here (1:35):

 

[Bloody]

For the Dogs yes.

Who made you the arbiter of finals rankings...

Yeah not sure about that mate, don't think it affected the result of the game as most teams can be guilty of throwing it sometimes.

 

[footyman13]

Well done dogs pride of Victoria

West of Melbourne smashes West of Sydney.

 

[sansian]

Dogs=Leicester?

Could you imagine that multi?

 

[frenchconnection]

You may be surprised. Plenty will.

Who - apart from Sydneysiders!! Oh forgot about South Melbourne supporters

 

[Lsta062]

North?

Not a blanket rule though. I feel like it does go a long way though for an upcoming team like Bulldogs. Hawthorn smashed Melbourne in Round 1 2008 and won a Premiership that year.

 

[Lsta062]

It sure worked for North.

But it worked for Sydney

 

[ajdude]

how big was Tom Boyd? went a long way to answer his critics, absolutely massive in the ruck.

 

[DazalenkoUBewty]

What an amazing game. Great heart shown by both teams.

Congrats Doggies!

What can I say, I like it. Dont expect anything else, and he gets excited.

If he's calling the GF, I'm switching off the sound.

 

[DAWESOME!!]

Stevie J played his last ever game a couple of weeks ago?

He'd be feeling pretty sick tonight.
