2023 Grand Final - Pies v Lions ... Australia Mourns!

[Little Ziggyadee]

That advantage call was a prime example of umpires not having any feel for the game and increasing it to 4 umpires has made it worse.

They wait for another umpire to blow the whistle by that time its too late.
Go back to 3 and stop bouncing it and warning sides that infringe the 666 rule.
Worse umpiring display I've seen this year..bias and hopless

 

[Tigers of Old]

Shout out to Scott Pendlebury.
Watching him turn the game in the Scum's favour in that last term & couldn't help but admire him.
Even as an old bloke still makes time stand still.
Very special footballer & a genuine joy to watch regardless of the colours he wears.
Champion player.

 

[Little Ziggyadee]

Id trade him.

Hes a 2 touch player.

McInerney is a warrior, but they need to upgrade him to take the next step, which is clearly a very small one.

Id put Hipwood on the table and gauge his value too. Youde think Dees and Pies could bid each other up?

You wouldn't get a toaster in a trade for Hipwood.
awkward running style
Unreliable
Hands like concert bricks, ball just bounces out.
Hopeless.
I gave him a 1 alongside starvich, Berry and Frampton

All I can say after that win by Collingwood is thank goodness the season is over.
Maybe we can now be spared the constant love fest for them that saturates the media day in and day out.
Roll on 2024 and hope they fall by the wayside next year, just like Geelong did.

 

[Tigers of Old]

Small mercies is our bid for Hipwood was matched & Daniel Rioli is a three time (..) Premiership player.

 

[Spirit of Jack]

Peter Frampton had never played a final before yesterday. Now he's a premiership player. Wish I could feel like he does.

I'm yet to be convinced he played yesterday.

Some observations from yesterdays great game minus that shocking advantage call.

- Collingwood are the most Richmond like side since, well, Richmond. Not sure Yze should be moving us too far away from what obviously works in the modern game. Chaos will nearly always beat control in the heat of finals.

- Those having a dig at Frampton are missing the point. In a 23 person side, not everyone needs to be an A-grader. Sometimes you just need a player that can do a job and Frampton did his job well.

- Speed kills. Collingwood’s pace and run was too much for Brisbane. We need to inject some pace back into our side if we are to contend again. In fact, I’d prioritize pace and running ability over footskills.

- Brisbane are wasting their window and are running time.

This Frampton fallacy is going to grow legs to sugarcoat how embarrassing he was; he was down right diabolical and didn't do his job at all. Andrews played well and the Pies were a forward short.

Yep he almost fresh aired an uncontested lace out overhead mark 15m out that brushed his hands and hit him on the bonce.

Hands were in the wrong spot and eyes were closed. Was what my daughter did when she was scared of the ball at 5 years of age.

The Dees did take Schache, so they might just be willing to trade for Hipwood.

Richo kept talking him up, but no one else did. He’s lucky to have a Premiership medallion.

So who would you take out of

Ben Brown
Schache
Hipwood
Vickery

 

[Streak]

I look at the pies, all give 120% there a great team with a few guns. They bought in. There not the most talented list , but means nothing unless the players under the superstars play there roles.

And doesn’t that sound familiar to us Tiger fans.

The basic recipe for a flag.

 

[CarnTheTiges]

So who would you take out of

Ben Brown
Schache
Hipwood
Vickery

Of that lot I think I’d probably take Ty, and he’s been retired for years. Brown is the only other one that has accomplished anything in his career.

Deft use of bracketted dots Oldy.

The Frampton Fallacy has entered our PRE lexicon.

Its very nuanced and could be susceptible to misuse,

But thats a chance we'll take

Take a bow JB

 

[TigerMasochist]

Soft spot n congrats to Lego, Fly n Leppa as all spent some time at Tigerland. As for the rest of Colonwood, they can GAGF. *smile* Brisvegas pissants wouldn't even have been competitive if Colonwood could kick straight.

So who would you take out of

Ben Brown
Schache
Hipwood
Vickery

Hipwood is far from beyond redemption.

To be fair, i thought he competed pretty well half the time, and i thought he was significantly better than miocheck

Id still auction him though.

Brodie Grundy would have had a very *smile* day yesterday youde reckon - utterly devoid or care and love.

Tough gig, choccas with bullcrap

Stuff I like about the 16th Coll flag.
1. Maso Cox. I like Maso. Smart guy. Amazing story.
2. Pendles. Scrupulously fair champion of the game.
3. Howe. The greatest high mark in the games history has provided ridiculous amounts of pure entertainment for many many years. Good on ya Jerm.
Stuff I dont like about the 16th Coll flag.
1. It's Coll.
2. Everybody's gonna be trying to win every second game by 4 points.
3. Shouldn't be winning flags without any key forwards.
4. God of the club produces a absolute freak talent progeny sound familiar?
5. Maynard DeG Moore's *smile* hair Ginnivan

 

[TrialByVideo]

To @Mr T. or any other members of staff....
Since I started this thread....... how do I delete all evidence of it's existence so we can forget it ever happened?
