What if Barry Hall was rubbed out for a gut punch in the 2005 prelim like he should have been? Do they still win the GF?

He was big in the GF, wasn’t he?

No. Eagles win. Swans were lucky Phil Matera wasn't playing either. Hall got a goal from a soft free in the ruck also and I reckon Sampi shoukd have got a free in that pack where Leo Barry marked at the end.

What if Port beat Richmond in 2020, do they beat Geelong in The Grand Final?

Geelong wins. They were neck deep in it before a typical tigers second half onslaught.

I agree.

What if Andrew Jarman kicked that 4th quarter goal vs Essendon in the 1993 preliminary final.

Crows potentially win the 1993 flag.
Graham Cornes doesn’t get fired, gets a 3 year extension.
Robert Shaw and then Malcom Blight are not hired and the Crows don’t get back to back.

’s isn’t traded from Fremantle as Cornes didn’t rate him.

The dominoes effect from one kick can make some very different historical moments change.

That's mad.

That's mad.

It’s an interesting conundrum.

What if the SANFL entered a side in the VFL in 1982. Kernahan, Bradley, Motley, McDermott, Jarman x2, Mcginess, don’t get to the VFL and stay at home.

Then in all likelihood, Port enters a side in 1991 with the Crows young players, Ricciuto, Hart, Et el

If West Coast play Geelong in the 2007 Grand Final with a fully fit team they could have beaten them. The Cats barely beat us in the Prelim. 2007 was the one that got away for the Eagles.

Cousins cost them a tilt at b2b.
