2023 Gold Donors Darkstone Posted June 24, 2020 2023 Gold Donors Report Share Posted June 24, 2020 (edited) Okay here it is. A place for us Aussies and others who have seen the light, to discuss the greatest game on earth. I agree with CureTheSane about how inappropriate the opening video to the "Pat McAfee gets it" thread was, so I'll start this thread with something more fitting. I'm looking forward to posting many great Footy videos here. Go Pies! Edited September 27, 2020 by Darkstone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2023 Gold Donors Darkstone Posted September 21, 2020 Author 2023 Gold Donors Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 I need to make more of an effort with this topic. I was reminded over the weekend of this amazing one man effort during the 2005 AFL Finals. The Swans would go on to win the Grand Final (Superbowl) on the back of this performance. I'm sure CTS will appreciate this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CureTheSane Posted September 21, 2020 Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 I was watching as it happened. Amazing, come from behind. Still don't know how we got there, I still get nervous watching replays. I was at the 2005 GF and it was amazing. Glad we lost on the weekend. Last two rounds we lost to two top 4 teams by narrow margins, with quite a few injuries. Our best forward (Franklin) , our best backman )Rampe), our best ruckman(Naismith), and our best mid-forward (Heeney) among others. The loss on the weekend means we finished 3rd bottom instead of 5th bottom, which is great when draft season comes along. We will get the 4th best player in the draft, then two academy picks where we match the other clubs selections. So basically 3 first round picks for the price of one Look out next season. Also talk of Moore or Degoey coming to the Swans, that would be fun Coliingwood supporters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2023 Gold Donors Darkstone Posted September 28, 2020 Author 2023 Gold Donors Report Share Posted September 28, 2020 These aren't the greatest Long Bomb goals, as the title suggests. These are all relatively recent, but you get the idea. BTW, when the commentators refer to distance, such as 50, 65, 70, they're talking metres, not yards.
