Shocking kicking for goal so far. Be interesting to see if the Lions make them pay for it.

Cats can't miss now, 7 straight.

That just sums Hipwood's career up, doesn't it? Any other key forward in the comp would just go back and take the shot...

Lock in Conway for Geelong’s ruckman next year after that performance from Stanley. Terrible effort to not belt Daniher in the ruck after Oscar went down.

It’s going to be a Grand Final for the traditionalists ….

South Melbourne v Fitzroy

Last 2 runners up in the GF.

Should be a great Grand Final.

Best team all season v the most in form team in the league.

Tough to know who to barrack for as a neutral.

Ryan Lester was excellent, very impressive game by him.

Credit to the lions, they have shown so much heart the last 2 weeks

4823 attendance. Probably all bloody corporates.
Was that Fitzroy's only flag?

Six more between 1904 and 1944 (1904, 1905, 1913, 1916, 1922 and 1944) and one the year prior in 1898 in the VFL. 1895 premiers in the VFA. They were known as the Fitzroy Gorillas for their 1944 flag.

Yeah. Just looked it up. Didn't realise they were so successful early.

1916 they finished last (2W , 1D , 9 L) in the H & A season , so they technically won the wooden spoon after the minor round season and then ended up premiers as well.

Only 4 teams competed in 1916 and they all played in the final series.
