2022 Finals Series

[grassy1]

Collingwood have made the GF each year the last 4 monarchs have died!

They haven't won them all though...50/50.

Thanks to Simon Scharma,I’ll have a Stab.

1910 King Edward VII
Actually Beat Carlton in a Grand Final.

1935 King George V
Beat The Foreign Legion,South Melbourne.

1936 Edward VIII
Technically Died on the Job,Abdicating over Constitutional Crisis created over Mrs Wallis Simpson.

1952 King George VI
Beloved Bertie,who held the Country together,with his Super Example to stay in London during The Blitz,the Accidental King due to David’s shenanigans,leaves the English in Total Mourning,after his passing.

Reckon Edward doesn’t count out of that.Perhaps it was Victoria’s passing in 1901 that completes the List.

I think for my sanity the GF would be Cats v Swans.

Lions v Pies a outright disaster my liking ,

Don’t think I can bare watching

Flamin peanuts pumpkin terrorty again

If the Lions pull it off in going all the way,I reckon Chris Fagan by himself,would be a popular Winner.

I think I share the same dread as Windy… only for the reason of DANIHER becoming a premiership player

Unless his Wife Demands he Stays home to mind the kids.She’s going to the NRL Grand Final,wherever Vlandy’s decides to park it.

Pies 17th last year? Prelim this year?

Can our club executives realise this is the sort of shit that drives us crazy.

Was in a Grand Final in 2018 (nearly won it).

Lost a Prelim by a kick in 2019.

Beat West Coast in Perth in 2020 Elim Final before losing the Semi.

Probably just sick of Bucks in 2021.

But yeah, I’m sick of how shit we are. Useless turd of a club.

2021 might also have been a bit of a "let down" year after their supposedly diabolical 2020 Trade Period where Treloar left. The Club was written off by everyone after that.
But ta-da! A new coach with a proven list turned it around in 2022.

Comparisons with Collingwood rising from 17th are irrelevant to EFC.

[Rover99]

Ha ha Lions not going anywhere. Disembowled by the Pussycats tonight, the worst ever I think. How did those f****** grow so damn big? Hawkins is a giant! Pies won't have a hope against them. Oops, now I remember....

Pies don't have to worry now the swans will have the pleasure of being crushed by the juggernaut of the South

TA DA!

The sweetness of the Colliwobble loss is delicious

Much as I cannot stand Ginnavan, the 50 against him was the most appalling decision this year. Imagine this happening 60 seconds prior to the end of a Grand Final. It’s a shit rule and I hope it is reviewed next year. In addition, the fact that it is OK to now shove your opponent in the back while in a marking duel is now ludicrous. Watching Papley on 3 occasions trying to shove Moore in the back, only to spill the mark and still get it paid, shows how far the game has gone done the toilet. This decision most likely won them the game.

Unless they Fluff it next week.Then we’ll reflect again on how much Dad’s Army 1 or 2 have underachieved.They can argue the toss with the Egirls on who’s 1 or 2.

Agree Rock.

Problem is,AWFULL will Pat ‘emselves on the back for it!

[s'dreams]

Are there finals happening?

Can someone please remind me just what they are?

[grassy1]

Are you asking me by any chance?

Finals drought going from 1998 until 2019 my way.

22 Seasons,most of them Long.

4 Colts and Ressies Grand Finals combined for 1 Flag.

The one guy who got us there in 2020 in Logan McDonald,got squeezed out of Sydney’s Side,unless Reid doesn’t make it.

[grassy1]

Cats to just Win the Big One,but won’t be surprised if Sydney get up.

[rockhole]

Is Channel 7 using old Super 8 cameras for the telecast???

When the ball is on the Shane Warne wing, I cannot see it.

Even the graphics look fuzzy. Anyone else picking this up??
