I'd say Brisbane would have to start the GF as favourites, even if it's slight.

I thought Gov and Walsh were probably our best tonight. Plenty of players had tiny moments here and there, but many of our stars were down I thought.

Yep top four to avoid this type of contest to paly in GF and chance of winning it. I think we could have rattled Collingwood

We are definitely going in the right direction.

Absolutely. This team doesn't lose belief. What a seismic turnaround. That deafening CLICK q2 v GC is something hard to explain. But it happened and the rest will breed promise and hunger for more.

Outmuscled, outrun, outplayed and outgunned by a clearly superior opponent. No disgrace in that performance IMO. They have real hardness and real skill. I'm tipping them for the flag.

Yeah he did - but he is in mid 20s and played against the best defensive systems in the systems week after week.

Ball movement needs to improve a little bit more

I'm guessing there must be a whistle thief prowling around the corridors of AFL HQ. Some of the missed frees......

On Charlie.
He was double tagged and scragged in the finals. Also absorbed the heat without H for multiple h/a games.

We lost by 16.

H had a complete gimme free he didn’t get in the last Quarter push in the back that was so obvious I assume that umpire will not umpire again / if he’d kicked that we’d have had momentum.

Not sure how that result equates to we only played a good first 20 mins?
