It's all a bit vague too. When did the alleged injury occur?

He was fine raising the elbow through Vlas' head, he chased down Broady in the pocket during the 2nd quarter (think there might have been an elbow attempt in that one, by the way), didn't seem hampered starting the last qtr in the center, flew for a pack busting mark early in the last too.

Nearly every player out there would have had a niggle or two and just played through it.

Nah. I'm calling BS.

I wanted Edwards delisted after that miss.
He should've kicked it to Jack as soon as he got it or he shouldve ran to the goal line.

My play of the game was and the play that had Geelong looking for mama was, The "KAO's play". Edwards goes deep towards Castagnfield, he drops the mark, (gets pushed in the back by O'Conner), Bews bubble kicks it to Bolton with Menogla sooking to the umpire he touched it (worse then when Stanley said he touched it) Bolton kicks short to Lambert, who gets sat on by that dud that got knocked out by his own teammate. Should've been a 50. But the iceman Lambert goes back, slots it home.
Game over.
**That was when i started ordering online premiership memorabilia.

That kick from Shorty to George was sublime. Only George could have stuffed that up. Thank Christ it still resulted in a goal 20secs later.
2nd best kick of the night was Kmac’s to Lambert on the outer wing - mark spoilt by a Geelong player though.

It probably occurred originally in the 2nd half of the 2019 preliminary final, settled a little after that game then flared up again early in the 2020 grand final

Agree with those and would add Baker's left foot to Jack with a couple of minutes to go.

Henderson was running in to cover the goal square, Edwards tried to squeeze it into the corner. Had the feeling it would've broken Geelong.

Perfect 'jo the goose' with Riewodlt.
Either the Geelong defender was coming towards him or he was going back.
That should've been a goal.
Riewodlt was screaming for it.
Another 5 metres closer he could've/Shouldve kicked it into the top tier.
But even the point seem to suck the life out of Geelong.
Im expecting Geelong to go with quicker sides the next time we play them. Smith will help but gets counter punched by the inclusion of Higgins. not sure Higgins adds anything to their side.
A Dalhouse part 2

That short 10 metre pass to Jack and Stewart laying spread eagle on the turf was the best.
Scotty knew his worse nightmare was about to begin.
Out of the 5 flags ive seen, this one has past the Collingwood slapping of 1980.

You know something we don't?

Just re-listened to the SEN call of the last quarter. I had forgotten how dominant we became as the game went on.

A good call by Whately and Gary Lyon. Even the gnome Cornes did a good job.

9-2 goals after half time
We kicked 10 of the last 12 goals.
We are unstoppable. Especially now the qtrs will go back to 25+ minutes.
No team we be able to match our endurance and our game style.
This flag will be a replica of the 2019 one.

I wonder whether we need again some type of adversity to keep the team hungry and peaking at the right time?

2019 was injuries. 2020 was injuries and scandal.

2018 all went too smoothly.

We've started this year with the Hardwick "scandal".

I'm sure the so called journos will be barking all year about us.

That might be enough motivation?

Geelong today announced it will rest player's during the season to have them fully fit in September.
I've never heard of a team resting players before finals.
It must've just reached Geelong in the last 24 hours.
14 players over 29,
God help social security in Geelong next year the line will be massive.
