The what if thread

[JRyan23]

What if Ablett and many others didn't get injured that night against Collingwood in Round 16, 2014. We would have made finals, and all the stuff surrounding us such as players leaving, injuries, etc would be forgotten

 

[Catsace]

2001 prelim against Essendon.

If Croads 60 meter bomb goes through instead of swinging late and hitting the post. Hawks take the lead, i believe the game and an unlikely grand final appearance

Brisbane would have made 119 look like the Swans/Eagles '05-'06. If the Hawks had limped into the GF against at that stage the boiling hot Lions, it would have been a smashing of biblical proportions.Hawthorn would have struggled to lay a glove on them with a few injured and sore men.

What if Lions were allowed to play their home prelim final at the Gabba in 2004?

I were to purchase fast food and disguise it as my own cooking?

You might have lost by a couple of goals less

 

[The King!]

What if Scott Jeffrey didn’t umpire in 2016

Then Sydney win

Yeah salty whatever

Delightfully devilish hilly

 

[theprospect]

What if Scarlett didn't get that toe poke and Zac Dawson released Kosi to run into the forward 50 all by himself...what if the ball bounced into Milne's lap like it would the other 99 of 100 times etc

Then it would have been Troy Pannell

 

[roacheee]

What if Chris Grant didn't have that shot smothered in the dying seconds vs the Crows in the prelim of 1997. The dogs would have played the Saints and we would of had a different winner. Who would have won that game?

What " what if " moments hurt you as a supporter? Injured players, closes losses, losses that could have been avoided or horrendous passages of play that changed the momentum or affected the outcome.

Travis Varcoe this is your life.

what if carlton hadnt cheated the cap in 95?

 

[Tbonefreo]

What if Israel Folau never quit and reached his potential

Sorry Gold Coast fans
No Gold Coast suns...four years of talent and millions of dollars wasted.

It's the Suns' 8th AFL season and 10th in total?

 

[jezza1435]

What if cotchin had been suspended in the prelim last year...

played like a busted in the granny they probably win by more

 

[Mcgovernator]

What if Cousins didn’t ping a hammy in the 2007 qualifying final against port, we led for the majority of that game and I feel we would of won if Cousins stayed injury free. A week off, Judd rested, a premlim against north at home would of been a win then it sets up a GF against the cats. Last years premiers vs the up and coming powerhouse Geelong side , throw in the GF history from the 90’s and you would of got a far better game than what we got . Definitely wouldn’t of been 119 that’s for sure.





















(Geelong would of still won)

Or if you didn't let Scott Lucas kick 7 goals in a quarter in Round 22.

You would've definitely won that final against us if it was in Perth.

True about the Scott Lucas 7 goals

The qualifying final could of gone either way to be honest

 

[Rotayjay]

What if the Crows had won that 'mini elemination final' against Richmond in late 2014 and scraped into the eight? Brenton Sanderson might not have been sacked and Phil Walsh never appointed.

 

[Skeptic]

An obscure one for Saints fans... what if in 2004 the Saints had managed to beat Port, not in the prelim, but in the home and away game in Tassie they dropped.

Obviously this changes everything but with things working out similarly, the Saints finish top of the ladder and play Geel in Melb instead of Brisbane at the Gabba...
They’re every chance to win and pbly win the flag.

That means that they get some money, are every chance to lure a decent player in the offseason and potentially go back to back with a cashed up football department.

They stay in Tassie and GT doesn’t get sacked before the reload for a f/u shot over the 08-11 era.

Have always thought the game in Tassie could have been the moment/s that stopped them from turning it all round

 

[Number37]

What if the AFL stopped changing the rules...

And if Andrew Dunkley somehow made contact with the ball that managed to evade both his fist and head which limped over the line for a goal to the Kangas? But i think North were on a mission that day, they rapidly put a margin over Sydney whose good start petered out midway in the second.

what if dunkley had been suspended like he should of?

 

[Catsace]

Swans players don't get suspended in PF's....as Festival Hall got off in 2005 too.

 

[BigVic]

Jack Darling actually marked in the 2015 Grand Final. All the momentum was on our side until that fateful moment.

 

[Macpotata]

Tim Membrey kicked straight this year

 

[rmcq]

... Leo Barry slipped over
