Justgrumpy: Thanks to Monty for the work this year and the upgrades to the site.
Justgrumpy: Secondly thanks to the FF community see you in 2026.
wadaramus: Neale sub, participation award.
Bruce: Special performance there from the D-O-double-G.
frenzy: who we tipping
SonOfAGun.: Lions 15pts
Noxious: Yep, can see that backfiring hard Wada. Either he’s fit or he’s not, you’d hate for him to come on in the first
Noxious: And ping his calf again
m0nty: ugh, SD television
navy_blues: painful taylor and brayshaw today!!!
frenzy: I’ll go cats by 5 goals and Atkins norm smith
Noxious: Going from 4k ad free to 7plus feels like a gut punch, not to mention having to listen to JB and BT
SonOfAGun.: silly that fox footy can?t commentate the gf
thommoae: Stone the crows – enjoy Footy commentary every week with Matt Hill et al … and get BT for the GF.
Noxious: Had $10 on Bailey to kick the first goal and he starts 0.2 haha, love it
wadaramus: WHere’s Dredd, lamenting the Bears inaccurate kicking?
SonOfAGun.: 1.5 not great
navy_blues: dempsey started well
MrWalrus: Bears been way too dominant for this scoreline, bad kicking is bad football
SonOfAGun.: Thanks einstein
thommoae: Great atmosphere. Wonder what the supporter ratio is …
Will Barro: ah choo playing well atm
thommoae: Probably a little less skewed than the 95K Tigers v 5k Giants of 2019. 🙂
Will Barro: how did mullin go @ hawks cant see scores !!
Will Barro: what a game
Will Barro: If attacked by a mob of clowns, go for the juggler.
thommoae: McCl mark and goal. Not bad for “a stagnant forward line”.
Will Barro: slowly suffocating cats maybe thommo?
EvilMonk: my channel 7 keeps dying. I don’t do free to air.
clay007: Use the app
Noxious: Same Monk, have to refresh it every 5 or so minutes
EvilMonk: there’s an app on PC? no mobile devices here, other than my mobile, somewhere in the house 😛
thommoae: Lopside free count but can’t say they ain’t there. Good job so far, Umps.
wadaramus: Umps playing beautifully.
Noxious: Yeah i didnt realise the free discrepancy, barely noticed it in game tbh, seems pretty fair so far
m0nty: contact frees to Geelong have mostly been there but it’s the ones not paid to Brisbane that are dodgy
EvilMonk: I think umps have been fine. Brissy infringing more as they are tackling so much harder.
circle52: Would be nice though if umps paid holding both times, Loman has been held 3 times no free
m0nty: I have seen a lot of marking contact frees not paid against Geelong
circle52: Insaying that thougnBrisbnae have given some silly ones away though
wadaramus: Umps definitely favouring Geelong, let’s see if they check the stats at half time and put a corrective 2nd half in.
wadaramus: Geelong would only have 2 goals if it wasn’t for decision making benevolence.
MrWalrus: Umps been very good… For Geelong
wadaramus: Not quite a classic GF so far either.
EvilMonk: I can’t believe I’m siding with the umps, but it hasn’t been as bad as 17-4 suggests imo
EvilMonk: (from what I’ve seen from my half shit stream)
MrWalrus: I’ll pay that Evil, it seemed a bit generous towards cats to me, still surprised by how lopsided the count is
circle52: Word is Neale subbed in for Marshall
circle52: Sub confirmed
EvilMonk: both frees there but they got the memo lol
wadaramus: Fletcher you spud.
thommoae: Was that 15 to Holmes? not in the defensive arc, that’s for sure.
SonOfAGun.: too soft b smith
wadaramus: Spot on thommoae.
m0nty: wouldn’t be surprised if Jezza has a broken arm, you can play with it but it is painful as
MrWalrus: 15m is an interesting measurement in AFL, sometimes 10m is 15 and sometimes 20 is not.
thommoae: You said it Mr Walrus.
Birdman18: Every AFL forward plays like they’re trying to beat the offside trap nowadays
MrWalrus: I’d be surprised if it wasn’t broken m0nty.
NickyD: Danger quiet. I expect a burst from him soon enough
thommoae: If the Lions lose poor Zac will have nightmares.
m0nty: I broke a radius bone in my arm playing hockey once, you can play with painkillers but that is some harsh areas
wadaramus: Here we go, last 30 mins for the year, go Brisbane.
MrWalrus: Me too m0nty but in footy, it’s actually easy until the lightest contact to the area causes a pain explosion
MrWalrus: 50? Umps are still in this, last I checked you can stand q mark
SonOfAGun.: Bwhahaha
thommoae: Wow. Btb medals for the Washcroft?
MrWalrus: Washy for norm number 2
wadaramus: I think the same.
SonOfAGun.: Too easy
wadaramus: Normcroft.
wadaramus: Smithcroft.
Birdman18: Geelong gave away their secrets in the qualifying final
thommoae: Lions hb skills are elite. Telling.
EvilMonk: Only ever a close GF when the Pies are playing still ^_^
Manowar: you are a loser Smith!
EvilMonk: thanks Brisbane. I don’t need another Geelong flag
frenzy: handbags are back
DaicosQB: Social sure was yapping when Collingwood was losing, where is he?
SonOfAGun.: Big o!
m0nty: McCluggage having a spew off that stoppage
Manowar: back to the old age home you go, Dangerfield
Noxious: Brisbane lions win the Sydney Swans grand final custody battle
SonOfAGun.: another one!
MrWalrus: This is getting ugly now, I’m loving it.
wadaramus: Well this is ridiculous, but very much enjoying it.
Apachecats: Medal to Charlie?
m0nty: those poor long-suffering Cats fans
circle52: THink Ashcroft may have 2 in a row
Apachecats: Reckon Jezza’s had a broken arm for two quarters.
sMiles: I heard the Lions dedicated this game to thier beloved ‘Dread’!!! He who laughs last. ps. I am not he… 😉 GG Cats!
MrWalrus: Ashcroft did the work when it mattered
thommoae: Lions have been superb second half but Cats did not deserve this.
wadaramus: You get what you deserve thommoae!
wadaramus: Washcroft/Bailey/Cameron, either of these for NS.
Manowar: lol Geelong are getting exactly what they deserve!
Noxious: If Bailey was more accurate he would’ve locked in the Norm Q1
wadaramus: Spot on Noxious.
thommoae: Baz trash talkin’ Andrews: “Now you’re not double us – so there!”
MrWalrus: Yep, Bailey more seagull than BOG
sMiles: We aare going to be hated next year – sad for Danger though
wadaramus: Baz trash talking the full back of the year, tosser.
NickyD: Wash/McLug for Norm
MrWalrus: Neale had a fair 2 quarters.
wadaramus: Sucked in Geelong and VFL.
wadaramus: Until next year, thanx m0nty 🙂
EvilMonk: until next year lads, good footy, enjoy the break. <3
EvilMonk: thanks m0nty!
MrWalrus: Later all
m0nty: thanks to all, see you next year!
sMiles: iTy for the fun and games – and stats Monty – Cheers
