Anyone else ****ed off with the coverage of this?

The bloody shadows are killing the enjoyment for me along with the Eagles policy of handball-handball-handball. Also it is my firm belief that Sam Butler is a ****load better then thug life Beau Waters mark or no mark.

Yeah, the shadows make it hark to see. I don't think Waters is a thug, he'd certainly look great in a crows jumper;). We need a physical palyer in our team.
 
Last week is starting to hurt a bit more now

Getting so close to the Eagles despite our injuries i knew we would beat Sydney if we had have got through.

Defiantely the best last quarter of a grand final ive seen since ive been alive. Cant ask for a better GF than that.

You're a hard man to please jo.

That was just a great game of football with one of the all time best last quarters. :thumbsu:

As for Beau Waters, he is an absolute ripper of a player. He's always reminded me of a young Mark Ricciuto.

If he's as good as he is now after only being in the system 2 years, just imagine how good he will be after say 5 years.

I just wish he was a Crow. :(
 
Well of course ours was teh best in my own mind. But in terms of a spectacle then you'd be hard pressed to find a more on edge final quarter of a grand final.

One too many drinks JO? ;)
 
Waters is a good player but the way he targets the head when players have their head over the ball is dangerous. The fact hes connected about 4 times in the last 15 months doing this is also dangerous. If he'd hit a Crow player in one of those I bet the feeling would be a touch different.

Channel 10s coverage was 100% better than last year. At least it wasnt the Sydney love-in with Channel 10 commentators flying halfway across the world to celebrate with a clubs players family this year. Though I am set that Malcolm Blight is the most annoying special comments man on TV.

Easy that post was made at half time when the game looked like becoming a fizzer. Look above for my post half time thoughts:

Damn that was a gem of a last quarter.

And we actually got to see the winning team celebrate after the final siren instead of cutting to a commercial break:thumbsu:
 
Him and Dermott just bug me. Annoying giggles, strange comments. Robert Walls for sheer comedy value of hearing someone backtrack and change opinions numerous times in the space of an hour. Dermott is just a clown.

Sniper.

Well done to both teams, an absolute classic. When Goodes kicked that goal at the start of the last quarter I thought that the Swans would run over the top of them, like they did with St Kilda last year.

Daniel Chick's smother will surely go down as the 'Leo Barry moment' of 2006.
 
Yup, one of the best 1%'rs in Grand Finals.

Like last year the first half was a bit average but the 2nd half was killer. Think im gonna go and watch the last couple of minutes again.

Fair enough...

I think he's good value, but each to their own!
Walls is annoying...no comedy value, just annoying!
 
What an absolute ripper that was :D :thumbsu:

First half was a bit of a fizzer but the second half was sensational. Every grand finals produces a moment that will stick in your mind. Last year it was Leo Barry's mark and this year its Chick's smother then a follow up sheppard that allowed Hunter to kick a goal.

This truly is one for the memory bank. Exceptional GF. Better than last years.

Barry Hall had an absolute stinker but bloody hell Daniel Kerr is a GUN!!!!!!
