Grand Final 2021 - Dees v Dogs

Yes, they got a "first round" compensation for Frawley, which meant immediately after their first round pick - pick 2. So Frawley compensation turned out 3.
Franklin was lost by the Hawks, to a club paying on average $1m a year. They got "end of first round", so basically after their pick being premiers. Compensation has been a joke since day 1.
Yes, it was contrived. It was there to lift the Dees up. It's why I get very little joy out of last night (apart from Neale Daniher). The whole thing was for the AFL to make contrived premiers.
Just like the AFL didn't like to perpetuate a Hawks or Tigers dynasty, they've wanted to manufacture a Dees and Giants Premiership.
Almost all boxes ticked Gil.
Well if you'd bothered watching the GF Craig it is a pretty fair assessment of Petracca no matter how much we wish it weren't the case.
Agree. Difference is Weightman has at least played one decent final in his short career.
I didn’t hear him at all! Seriously Basil forgetting to allow Goodwin a speak after he got his medal is a sackable offence.
A lot of people wanted the bullfrogs to win but the reason they annoy me was on full display last night.
They are the experts of the “Sellwood”, turning the neck and dropping the shoulder, and the throw yourself forward when tackled to get the cheap in the back. For the most part the umpires didn’t fall for it but they did a few times.
I like teams who just play footy and Melbourne did mostly although Brown got a few cheapies which annoyed me as well.
Dogs very lucky to be there in the end because Brisbane were very unlucky against them. Wouldn’t have mattered because the demons would have been too good for Port or the Lions as well.

Basil will count all of this a success. He’s all about promoting himself.
Yeah he just needs to congratulate the Dees at the start of the Draft and normality will have returned to the AFL.
yeah, only 2 norm smiths separate them
but agree. texted a mate before the announcement 'Trac as clear cut and as good a game as Dusty '17'
that rolling pocket goal was sooooo dusty.
great player with the perfect foils
Yeh, he was enormous. Chol has the same athletic gifts but a fraction of Jackson’s mongrel.
Jackson strikes me as being stolen from a Far North Launceston logging family at birth and raised by Western Australians.
He fulfilled all my Ruckophile dreams yesterday.
a GF ruck mans game for the ages IMO
Interesting observation. We saw the Richmond onballers fatigued this year, partly due to longer seasons and the frenetic game style. Wonder how long Melbourne can get away with using the same set of players for the vast majority of the season.
