Did Lynch and Akermanis get booed?

I couldn't bring myself to watch it, but if true it could have something to do with the fact Lynch faked a free kick in the last quarter and scored a goal from it and Akermanis is a show pony and he also kicked the sealer. Just a guess.
I don't think I booed anyone during the presentation. I was too emotionally spent and there was just no point in negativity.
In fact, I applauded the whole Brisbane team as they went past on the lap of honour. Even Lynch and "Moneybags" Michael, both of whom I despise. I just wasn't in the mood to bag anybody. I'd had a wonderful day, with a sad ending.
Having since read Akermanis's pack of lies about the umpiring I wish I could retract my applause for him. That insensitive clod needs to learn the meaning of humility.
There's an old saying, "be humble ... or be humiliated".
I will enjoy the day when Akermanis is humiliated.

What?!? Did you watch it on the Footy Show this morning? Absolutely nothing in it. They all agreed there was no free kick.

I've heard that the Australian Olympic Diving Team have been on the phone to S.Wakelin earlier today. Apparently they can see the potential for a Gold Medal in Athens 2004.
Well, it just goes to show that everyone is good at something, doesn't it!

The free kick payed in the last quarter against Presty was there. The ball came exactly over his head as he cannoned into the pack The other players(Lynch Brown and some Collingwood players) were going for the ball but unless Presty had eyes in the back of his head he was going for Lions players.
I thought Brown was the First player he Infringed on.

He had a pretty average day yesterday, actually. However, if there is an occasion where Akermanis is 'humiliated' as you say Alf, will that be your crowning moment in football?
Likewise, what if he merely turns around and takes it all on the chin, like he does on most occasions? I know who'll look the fool then - certainly won't be him.
Similarly, by the manner in which a number of Collingwood people have been sprouting off, I'd think that you'd be the last one to be talking about words/actions coming back to bite people on the arse . . .
I don't see why people take such an interest in seeing the 'misfortune' or 'humilation' of others. It doesn't say much of their own character. I mean, shouldn't they merely be more concerned with their own doings, rather than worrying about others?
Akermanis has obviously got a few people a little rattled, to say the least.

Memo to Collingwood players.
You have to have eyes on the ball, not the player.
The free was there.
Stop sooking.

I was actually going to storm out early but my brother stropped me and luckily he did so we could cheer Bucks when he got the Norm Smith Medal and made a great speech.
Yeah Akermanis and Lynch were booed, personally I've always thought of Akermanis as a loud mouthed midget, his comments about the crowd and umpiring confirmed this after the game and Lynch always plays for and dives around looking for free kicks. I couldn't bring myself to clap any of them(Don't mind Brown and Leppitsch to be honnest but I was too gutted to be gracous in defeat at the time).

Absolutely terrible effort by a large number of Collingwood fans, booing Lynch, Akermanis and Michael. I remember back in'90 when the Pies won, there was virtually no negativity at all, even after a spiteful game. There were quite a number of these supporters around me, and have cemented my hatred for anything black and white.
Oh well I guess we will have to be content with back to back flags, and sucsess starved Buckley and homesick O'Bree will have to put up with a 'gallant' loss!

Go and have a cry like your coach! Or maybe you prefer footballers like Dog Act Licuria, and could weep like him! Was he crying from the result or the fact he could only manage to drop one knee into someone's head?
I guess the Lions wouldn't have minded guaranteed return games against Carlton or Richmond this year either, but that wouldn't suit your whinge!
