Podcast Farewell Lance 'Buddy' Franklin - Handbag Slayer, and Alex Rance's Daddy !

[Tiger2709]

No group of supporters take Grand Final losses more bitter and sour than Geelong flogs.

They are still complaining about 1995, even though we absolutely annihilated the Handbags and stole their souls that great day.

And quite clearly still crying about 2008 and 2020.

They don't win many so it must be hard to let go of the ones you lose?

Fortunately most Cats supporters only have to suffer half the game, in losing Finals and Grand Finals they're all on the train by half time heading back to sleepy hollow.

Favourite Spuddy moment was the 2022 GF of course. Joel Selwood sailed off as the ultimate winner while Henry ended Franklin's career. Great day.

Cats who don't often have a lot too celebrate seem to be the worst supporters for celebrating injuring players and ending players careers, what a sad little lot the hoops are.

Buddy contemplating just how many cheap frees/goals he could have won himself had he ducked his head as many time as duckwood did.

 

[STPer18]

Good effort but us giving the beat down on Ablett so badly in the 2020 GF takes the cake. Even Cotchin popped that famous shoulder out

Dunno if it’s just me but the AFL world made a bigger deal out of Buddy’s retirement. Don’t think they cared for Ablett didn’t hear much.

That was the Gabba final yeah? Interstaters and Richmond fans won't like me saying this but for me it's the MCG aka the Home of Football aka Geelong Paddock or nothing. It doesn't get any better than that.

lol, how convenient

As usual, Scat fans hijacking a thread and trying to make it all about them.

I would vote we ban all Corio losers from the Bay, but then it would just be a shitfight between Freo and DanWA

wow.. yet another Cat Benny turd stinking up the
Litter Box

I'm sorry if the financial realities of Franklin's signing upset you

Well the thread certainly can't be about Carlton.

Franklin was part of two teams that (at separate times) were Geelong's rivals at the pointy end of the competition.

And we have more flags there so yeah thanks for the reminder

I’ll give you props for those pics though. Surprised you found one without Porkins gut in it.

For a minute I thought this was an AI generated picture.

In fairness Selwood is pretty fake ngl

I remember when he was eye gouging Baker in the 2020 GF. Dog.
