i think its a joke that tickets go on sale to the public again....just a money making scheme they should give them another go for free.... Collingood, my team....you fellas should have put that game away early. Better be a victory i can be proud of next week because today was utter shit(2nd half)... Really need to change the rematch rule, extra time for sure.

Sat, 2010-09-25 18:51

bunch of sooks just cos their fans cant afford new tickets.

you cannot justify a whole season of playing good footy from both sides on an extra 5 min each way

yep either way on the result

Sat, 2010-09-25 18:59

yep either way on the result you should have to win on four quarters not some 5 min rule each way. other wise its getting too much like soccer and who wants that ? ( golden goal rules)

Getting ready for 2011. I think the grand final will be the first weekend in October when the comp expands to 17 teams.

Another option

Sat, 2010-09-25 19:32

Why don't the tied teams share the premiership.  Are there play offs in the Olympics? Not to my knowledge but maybe in some events?  Joint medals are certainly presented in timed events.

I dont support either team

Sat, 2010-09-25 19:52

Just couldnt put up with Eddie if they won.I think the saints would have got over the pies if it went to extra time.The pies had nothing in the tank.I think the saints will roll them next week.The pies put in their all and came up short in the second half.Just dont think they have the heart to back up their start next week.They had their chance today and choked in the end.

What an arm wrestle!!!

Sat, 2010-09-25 20:46

Looks like Ross Lyon was right. It was round 26Cool...

And what a game Goddard played.  Like a God and didnt get a medal for it,Lenny Hayes snatched it with a nearly as impressive game. The Roo got blinded by the light but had the hounds chasing his every step. And Peake, well he shouldve scrubbed the red off his jersey!

 

The Pies were so over confident they cashed in their cheque at half time! Travis CHoke missing kicks even i could still kick! Daisy was ok till he got thumped then he sulked around play, same with Obrien, Maxwell turned up to play but! Is it the Colliwobbles resurected???

 

Just shows how much shit Collingwood fans contain, they were shitting so hard in the 4th quarter they blew up the sewerage pipes and flooded the changerooms. And all the hot air from the consumed Dinner Winners nearly blew off Commeti's hair!!!!!

Next Weeks verdict after today!

                                                 Shes sung!!!!!

Not the first AFL GF to be played in October. The 1994 Grand Final was played on October 1st. Some hacks won it from memory.

15 min each  way. that

Sat, 2010-09-25 22:31

15 min each  way. that would be fair and also test out the stamina of the players , then the best team would have won. dont agree with a draw in a final. only game that happens in is that stupid game that can go for 5 days and end in a draw.

Drawn GF's have been

Sat, 2010-09-25 22:39

Drawn GF's have been replayed for the past 100 odd years, who cares if the crowd/league/sponsors want a result today. Have some respect for the history of the game. Maxwell should shut his mouth and consider his team lucky to even get a second chance after the crap they dished out today.

Maxwell said that the league needs to change

Sun, 2010-09-26 06:01

the rules then Malthouse said ten minutes later that it has always been that way and everyone accepts that factLaughingI just hope the pies get flogged next week so i can see Eddies p!$$ed off and sad at the same time face .Its a classic.He was annoyed when Swan didnt get the brownlow again yesterday with the draw then they didnt get the Norm Smith.

Why didn't the rapist pounce

Sun, 2010-09-26 16:46

Why didn't the rapist pounce on that kick from Lenny like he pounces on the victims of his roofie-colada? Oh well missed the chance to see Mick & Eddie's tears this week, fingers crossed for next week.

I was there and it was awesome!!

Sun, 2010-09-26 20:52

I made the journey all the way from Perth to watch the game.
I support the pies and was hoping that we would flog them by 30 odd points, well not to be obviously! But not to bother. I paid alot of money to go and see my team and to watch a nail biter of a game and that was exactly what I got. The atmosphere was unbelievable and with just over 100,000 people everyone was on the edge if their seats. Contemplated staying for another week but gotta head back for work. Not to worry, get to crack a few cold ones and watch the re match again this weekend on the tv.

What a load of shit!! That

Mon, 2010-09-27 22:26

What a load of shit!! That was the grand final. Not the grand final befor the grand final. It should be decided on the day. EVEN the players (Nick Maxwell) said so.What A let -down. The poor buggers(players) are stuffed and probably all injured after giving their all for 2 hours.The money they make next week should be earmarked for grassroots footy LOL as if that will happen.
