Huge weekend of footy.

How good's finals footy?
What bold Grand Final predictions did Buddy make for 2026?
All leading to the prelim, which I think is the best round of footy because it's the real supporters coming together.
How does the show wrap up and what’s the final sign‑off?
It's not like all the corporate flogs, grand final day. It's the real supporters, the ones who turn up week in, week out, wet, rain, It's normally rain when it's wet. Uh muddy, suddy, windy, whatever. They're there through the thick and thin. But um huge weekend, Bud, I'm sure you would have seen plenty going on. A lot of finals around the country in the in the country leagues and the suburban leagues. Congratulations if your team had to get over the line. Shout out Charlie Crawford. On uni reserves. Well done. Um but did he kick anywhere? Does he play? He plays half forward. Uh he kicked one. It was a miraculous goal because it somehow He got a handball receive, went for a run, and then it went towards a goal and then it floated in between and nutmegged a guy on the line who thought it was going over his head but went under his legs.
So uh that was quite remarkable in itself. But let's go. Talk about Adelaide. Adelaide fifty-three point thumping against the mighty Brisbane Lions. The Brisbane Lions have bounced back after being thumped by the Sydney Swans uh in week one of the finals. Whoa, could you believe the first six minutes of that game? They kick five goals. They come flying out of the blocks. And it's very much like Fremantle, who we're obviously gonna talk about, but Week one, Voss was criticized, Tracy was criticized, Bolton And they had a real impact in the first quarter in their match. And then it's the same with Brisbane. Lohman, they had a go at Lohmann, said, you know, he didn't have a a good game yet. His second half has been incredible.
Charlie Cameron, where was he? And it was all those players under a little bit of pressure. They hit the scoreboard early. They look super dangerous. And I've never seen a team start better than I saw the Brisbane Lions, which is quite scary because it looks like they can be better than they have been over the last few years when they want to be. What was your take, bud?
Ah, they were impressive, weren't they? You w we were expecting that though, weren't we? A response. I think you Not not that first ten
minutes.
No. Incredible. And I think Corn Corns came out and said before the game the small forwards of uh Brisbane were really trouble Adelaide and couldn't have been any more true, Croft. Like we what that what they did on the night, I thought Cameron was awesome. Obviously, had that quite a game. Raynor was incredible again, and Bailey. Bailey for me was it was unbelievable. We got three goals three, twenty odd touches again. Signed
his contract during the week, which lifted the spirits because. Broke
Adelaide's heart's fact of what he was doing on the weekend. But Well,
he he signs his contract and then he comes up against Adelaide and then he burns him. He kicks three, he tortures him, he runs away from players who are only virtually only hammer. Yeah. It was an Oregon. Yeah. But in a way, not not just I'd say this in a respectful way. It was an a it was a s extremely confident game that they played. They just took the game on. And he was a a real leader with that, Zach Bailey. So So Adelaide couldn't get that done as well. So that hurts him as well. So it was a double blow, really, when
you look
at
it. Well, to miss out on Bailey um is a massive blow. I think, you know, they would have been very confident they could get that deal done and then at the last minute he says he's staying at Brisbane. Um how could you leave that club, Croft, with what they're doing, they're playing some inspirational football. It was great to see them bounce back. You know, he had fourteen score involvements, so it's not just the goals, it's it's getting involved in the score, setting other goals, other players up. Center bounce stoppage. Center back stoppage. Yep.
