2006 Afl Finals Thread

But they were given that crucial goal near the end of the atch that bought them within 1 point which replays show was touched, even if only faintly. The worst bit with the umpires however was when one of them cramped up and so they stopped the bloody match and bought the ball back around 20-30m. WC were going forward nicely, there was no reason to stop just because one umpire is down with cramp, there are 2 others after all.

I'm actually some what surprised that the game was at full capacity as well

Very close result again. Wasn't much of a match really, but the closeness more than made up for it. I was drunk by half-time anyway, so I didn't really care too much.

Thought the best team won on the day. Would have been a travesty had the Swans got up, even though I was going for them. The umpiring was a little dodgy as usual. Today they showed four incidents that cost Sydney four goals, but O'Keefe's goal was touched and Eagles fans have complained about other decisions that were unnoticed.

I'm actually suprised that Sydney got so close in the end. They were very ordinary for most of the day and the Eagles were a lot more polished. But I think the Eagles harder road into the granny started to tell after half-time, because they looked like they were running on empty in the last 50min of the game.

How about Fev winning the sprint. At least we won something other than a spoon & Coleman this year. And I think we discovered what has long been a suspicion. Judd is some sort of cyborg or something. The guy is just too bloody good and perfect to be human. Also a little sad Fox Footy has gone off the air. At least if there was nothing on, you could count on FF.

I loved Fev winning the sprint, if for nothing more than to hear my port supporting mate get all flumaxed and defensive given Danyle Pierce's not winning. Go Fev Go, lol.

And yeah, the Eagles did look pretty tired, but it is incredible how they seem to just be able to keep running and chasing even when completely buggered. You see guys like Cousins, Judd and Kerr who look ready to throw-up and seem to barely be able to stand whilst standing still - then just a few minutes later they are running fast as all hell and streaming into the forwardl line. Bloody incredible.

The reason why the Eagles were so tired is because of all the drugs they are on

It was fun reading this thread - when I was in Australia in '03 I got to go to an AFL game in Brisbane. Still wear my lions jersey around town. Of course this part of the world most people look at it and go -

[metallifreak27]

i dont even remember watching it lol, it was on the day of my 21st me and my mate started drinking at around 10:30 AM

oh yeh, im a crow supporter too so CARN THE CROWS next year

if they dont get it next year they wont get it all for a loooooong time

[Danallica]

I agree.

Bad times at the crows camp though atm, Ben Hart sacked, and this huge rift between Edwards and McLeod is getting real bad, it has got to the stage where the club has said that if they dont' make up, or more specifically their wifes, then one of them will be traded. Mcleod has always been a cunt, he's a top player sure, but just a tool, expecially with the whole Hewitt thing, his wife, although drop dead fucken hot, seems to be a bitch as well.

hope they get this shit sorted, and quickly.
