Week 1 Finals: the bowl splatter games.

Shot themselves did GW. Needed to go hard every step with Swans it worked for 3.5Qs then they shat the bed.

Terrible result. Swans no good. Tin-arsed it.

GWS the better side but Toby Greene an absolute liability all game.

Hope they can come back from it

Giant choke. Tried to milk the clock way too early.

Might have been the grand final preview though.

Heeney magnificent.

Tobes is a shadow of himself. Looks retired.
Swans not amazing. Haw Cats wouldn't be terrified.
 
Papley the little *smile* cheat, lucky umps haven't fallen for it
There was one he did that was so blatant he should have been penalised. Straight out cheating, pathetic

Kudos to the umps btw. Didn’t fall for it

Nah. Warner lifted. Heeney incredible. Never stopped wanting it.
Agree.

This was the highest pressure final of the 3 by far. Awesome game.

The giants were incredible with their pressure but the swans came out and matched it, sign of a very good team. These two could well play off in the grannie imo.

Heeney’s goal in the last was one that Dusty would have been proud of

The two moments that cost GWS the game in the last 3 minutes, Connor Idun had a chance to kill the ball but decided to try and mark it, they were 2 on 1 but Papley won the ball and Heeney kicked the goal to tie it up.

The second one, GWS had a chance to go a goal back up. There was a nice kick to Josh Kelly in the fwd 50 but when you're typically, not a hard-at-it player you do the soft approach he waited as he thought the ball would just magically fall in his hands, but not to be and the swans cleared it away whereas he should've attacked the contest knee in the back and mark the ball as he had the sit, bottom line kelly should've been shooting for goals.

Swans players attacked the contest like crazy. They wanted it that much more.

I did say either of these teams can beat the Cats in the prelim, well GWS should beat either of the lions or blues and set up a prelim showdown with the Cats at the G

Who knew that was going to be the match of the first week - except everyone that doesn't work for the AFL

GSW butchered this quarter.
When a ruckman can't hold a mark
When you constantly miss simple targets
Your not winning a final.
Gws lost the game, Sydney were very lucky.
And Cox is a Flog of the highest order.
Where's Vickery when u need him?
I can't stand Sydney

I'm devastated
26 up 3rd qtr and they lose
14 points up with 10 to go and they lose.
7 up with 4 mins to go and they lose.
Shocking loss.

The GWs should just retire useless.
Congilio and Kelly hang your heads deplorable.
The dud from Collingwood missed a basic 30m goal from Almost directly I'm front.
I feel for Kingsley. They shouldve won the flag last year and got ripped today
