The "Somewhat Premature" 2010 AFL Thread that is likely to remain awesome

[Vlad n U 2]

Hi and welcome to the 2010 AFL Thread, 3 months before the year 2010 hits us in the face. A 2009 AFL Thread part 2 would be almost pointless considering the fact that we only have the Grand Final and trade week/draft day left in the year.

So here we are!

AFL, you know you love it.

 

[The Sad Punk]

Huzzahroonie!

So, who's watching the Footy Show GF special tonight?

 

[Vlad n U 2]

I suppose I should. In other news I have really been enjoying the classic grand final replays that One HD has been dishing out this week.

Great to relive the fantastic Sydney and West Coast rivalry.

 

[cobl04]

Yeah, it's pretty awesome watching Collingwood losing two grand finals in two days.

 

[Axver]

Yeah, it's pretty awesome watching Collingwood losing two grand finals in two days.

Sounds like your average footy fan's dream!

 

[Vlad n U 2]

And for tomorrow, a replay of the 2007 Grand Final, quite the treat for me and Danny!

 

[bono_man2002]

Oh you guys are hillarious at least we are able to create jokes for the rest of you fans!

 

[cobl04]

i bought my slab for grand final day. not looking forward to working 10am-12pm but after that it's a free for all!

 

[Axver]

I may just bake some choc muffins for tomorrow.

Not, perhaps, traditional footy food, but they're CHOC MUFFINS. Mmm, chocolate.

Already set with the wine and the cheese and crackers, aw yeah.

 

[bono_man2002]

I'll likely be listening to it on the radio while driving down. maybe

 

[Vlad n U 2]

I'll probably be on here and be watching the Grand Final.

:farkyeah:

 

[Vlad n U 2]

GRAND FINAL DAY EVERYONE!

 

[Axver]

I'm going to eat way too much food this afternoon watching this game.

 

[bono_man2002]

Belt the living suitcase out of them go catters!

 

[Vlad n U 2]

It's a 50/50 game at best, you can't tell who's gonna win, but i'm leaning slightly towards St. Kilda.

 

[mysterious_jen]

20 buck on the saints FTMF WIN .
the pre game entertainment was good,
the weather is spectacular,
should be a nasty ass of a day
its ON mutherfuckers.

 

[Vlad n U 2]

Would love to see some rain pouring down later, what a spectacle that would be.

 

[mysterious_jen]

pretty ordinary down here in geelong, wet and freezing , wind up and down , no hail here, but it is apprently happening around the state

 

[Vlad n U 2]

IT'S UNDERWAY!

Geelong draw first blood.

 

[mysterious_jen]

saints need to settle down and get a decent score on the board.
first quater is never really worth watching , the 3rd is where the magic happens

 

[Vlad n U 2]

Riewoldt is hurt, it looks like. But he'll be fine, I think.

 

[mysterious_jen]

saints by 2 points at quarter time , poor kicking is costing them a better lead .

 

[Vlad n U 2]

Yeah, Schneider's early miss from a snap was absolutely abysmal. Right in front of goal.

 

[mysterious_jen]

WE HAVE HAIL

oooh this is gonna be a soggy dirrrrrrty game

 

[Vlad n U 2]

You can't really see much on the TV. Though quite a few players are falling over!

 

[mysterious_jen]

dammm some epic phail kicks for goal from the saints

 

[Vlad n U 2]

This may just be 2008 all over again, with the Saints playing the role of the Cats and the Cats playing the role of the Hawks.

St. Kilda are wasting such golden opportunities, especially Milne.

 

[mysterious_jen]

yup yup yup . in conditions like this against a team like geelong you just cant fuck up those opportunities. third quater its likely geelong will tie them down and flog them .

 

[Vlad n U 2]

Two quick goals to Geelong just then, St. Nick needs to do something inspirational to have a chance of winning.

 

[Vlad n U 2]

Wow! What drama! Saints by a goal, a free kick given to Schneider after Milburn had a crack at the umpire!

How momentum can change!
