Has any team come back from a greater deficit to win a final since Essendon v Adelaide in 1993?

Not according to twitter. 2nd biggest comeback in AFL era.

I wonder if port fans are reflecting on last year's final debacle and feeling a bit salty again seeing a home side in a final pull off that sort of win? I certainly would be,

Just woke up with a big stiffy and it's not a piss horn. It's still from the cats game. U beauty!!! That was just what we needed. Was a good reality check and they passed with flying colours to get the win. Don't think many other teams would have the resilience to win that game. I love the fact that they are never out of it. It's exciting to watch.

Pretty sporting there Pie. Once again DeGoey plays a ripper against us. Reckon you were the better side but Geelong finally discovered the missing composure in the last ten minutes. We were fumbly, bumbling, indecisive...why? Because Collingwood made us so. If you had Grundy you win that one. You have retain him I reckon.

Agreed with the Grundy comment. I think he'll stay.
We actually needed a Selwood in the last quarter. I said the same about Neale.
Both killed it at stoppage and laced out blokes under extreme pressure.
Jordy fumbled a bit at times but nearly got us over the line.
Hopefully we see you again at the MCG in the coming weeks.

Brilliant round of footy from a neutral observer.

Can't really see Freo progressing any further but on the same token you can't buy that sort of integrity and spirit. To think Taberner can't get a gig must have them in good steed.

Rory Lobb looks pretty agile for a big fella, I was most impressed with his game.

This is like Nicholas with Warne next to him in the commentary box saying Warner had never been out in the 90's.

Pub at 10am > AFLW at Alberton > Geelong v Collingwood in the bar at home > Fremantle v Bulldogs at the same bar and this old bloke fell asleep at half time.

I enjoyed my first commitment free Saturday in a long time, gave the house a good spring cleaning, washed and polished the car then a trip to the pub in the afternoon to collect some money from our footy punters club. Got home to watch two entertaining games whilst looking after two 7 month old girls which was a challenge within itself.

Every time I stopped to check the score in the early game there was never more than a 6 point difference, I didn't even know who to barrack for.
