What is the opening snapshot and who introduces the episode?
I'm Jared Waitley. Here's a snapshot of Monday, September twenty eighth. Your snap judgments from an unforgettable grand final.
Hard luck to Frio. Uh it sincerely I probably do agree with Fags. I reckon we might have pinched that one. Um so hard like them, they're a great side though, they'll be back. But um I just wanted to say a few things, Jared, if if you if I will. Um so I I was I I unfortunately didn't make the game this year, but I was watching with uh yeah, family and friends and when we were um seventeen points down seventeen points down when Votsky that goal, they were all they all the room went silent, everyone dropped their heads and said, Oh, I think that's it and I said I said, No, keep the faith. We know this guy, keep the faith and plus I reckon Logan Morris has a big moment coming 'cause they were saying how quiet he was too.
And then what do you know it, run towards the fire, dance on thin ice, brave heart theme this year apparently. So there you go, you can never ride off a champion side and we prevailed yet again. I have a little eerie thing about Warfare time I found after the game. There's thirteen bells to Hell's Bells. And Fremantle lost the two thousand and thirteen grand final. Thirteen years later they lose another grand final and then after on Saturday, you know how many finals they've lost now? Searching. So that is uh yeah, unlucky for some and I really found it funny as well that Garlic on Fireball on Friday said, Oh, we don't know about playing Wolfie time unless we're five goals up, we don't want to poke the bear.
Well, he poked the bear. I can't believe what I've just witnessed two weeks in a row, mate, it was
How did the grand final turnaround happen after the 17‑point deficit?
Unbelievable. Like like against the Hawks game, I thought we were done and dusted. I've got that one over the line yesterday. Oh, sorry, Saturday. same thing, seventeen points down, but he thought we were done and dusted and I can't believe it just happened again. It's it's freakish and it's such a pleasure to vote for the Brisbane Lions, mate. The Norm Smith medal uh is such a coveted medal and a centrepiece of the day. And I feel it was degraded over the weekend. Now Shay Bolton's a wonderful footballer. But there's no doubt n almost every commentary commentary team across the AFL felt that Will Ashcroft was the rightful winner of the medal on the day. Uh but Chris Judd, Michael Voss, Sean Burgoyne and Andrew McLeod all didn't see it that way.
And there surely has to be some kind of private inquiry as to see what went on there. I can't believe Josh Duncan didn't get a Norm Smith vote. I'm a I'm a Western Bulldogs man and and and it was sad to see him go and I'm I'm actually really happy for him. He's a great he's a great person in the game and Those double that double smother will go down in grand final footy football for forever. uh the defensive act and the the the way he puts his body on the line week in week out. He he's he's everything you want in a leader. He's this generation's Luke Hodge, as Chris Fagan cited years ago. I I just think he's amazing. And uh Zach Bailey's goal in that last couple of minutes, uh it was just football art the last four minutes from Brisbane.
And in a group chat with mates back in July when I think I think it was July when the Giants um put fourteen on the nose in the third quarter. We said as a collective uh that this will be funny when they win the premiership and uh look what they did. It's unbelievable, Jared. Um and Fremantle, uh spare of thoughts for Fremantle as a club and the fans, uh they are living every um football supporter's worst nightmare, they are in football trauma at the moment and uh spare a thought to them.
Adam Simpson on the Lions third premiership. Crumming's not everything, Jared. But today this game felt like it was important at the ground level. So it was pretty much Fremantle in the air versus Brisbane at grand level at that between the arcs in particular. So it was six crumbs to twelve in this last quarter. Um the tackle efficiency, eighty three percent to Brisbane, sixty eight to to Fremont.
