    In Sydney CBD this evening while my wife attends a function (paid for a hotel room, might as well use it) and there are a shitload of people in Swans gear.

    My brother is a Swans member and couldn't get a ticket. The G is going to be heaving

    Started tight. Ended up 6 kicks clear for the home side.

    Would be ace if my brother could get 2 tickets to the MCG next weekend. Bucket list item.

    There we go, true to form nothing is can be banked on this season, they score first but we bounce straight back with 3 straight and never looks back, second quarter was clinical, we were 9-1 in the second, up the bloods

    Worthy of the final!

    Good luck @mariner4life

    I’m actually asking around for tickets to the final, have some mates who are mcc members so think they can go in to a draw?

    The crowd noise in that final quarter was amazing, couldn’t hear the commentators

    Brother was at the G for that. Cracking game. Brisbane Lions demonstrating the opposite of what the All Blacks can do; take control in the second half and maintain composure to score when necessary.

    Undecided.

    A few external factors to consider

    we had a great, even regular season. And the finals have continued that. Sure the first week was a bit average, but was saved by the epic Sydney v GWS game. Both games last weekend were amazing finals. And then Saturday night was arguably the game of the year.

    Brisbane were so good in the 2nd half on Saturday. The 2nd quarter Geelong were absolutely having their way with us, but Fages took the shackles off and we played FAST in the 3rd and ran the Cats off the ground. The 4th was just a shitfight, both teams were running from everywhere and then were fucked. And when the Cats hit the lead i thought we were done, but Cam fucking Rayner i love you. Astoundingly, in a game of equal scoring shots, it was the Lions winning by kicking more goals than behinds. What even is this play off run?

    Some huge Lions efforts. Joe Daniher in the ruck after we lost Big O (and he won't play the GF). Lohmann. Rayner. Darcy Wilmott getting a heap of it. Will Ashcroft is an absolute star.

    I think we are in for a great GF. I can't see either team belting the others (unless the Lions have given everything already). The Lions can score heavily and quickly so Sydney will never feel safe. The regular season game there was nothing between these sides. Can't wait.

    Mark tonight as the moment the Brownlow officially lost all relevance.

    Patrick Cripps wins with a record 45 points. This is the equivalent of 15 best on grounds. Carlton won 13 games. Cripps polled 3 votes in 2 losing efforts.

    If that isn't enough, the guy who came 2nd polled the 2nd highest tally of all time.

    This award is now confirmed as an absolute joke.

    Also goal and mark of the year were boring as shit

    @mariner4life Heney should have won both from the win over GWS, might put some money on him for the Norm Smith
