  • Lost my voice for 24 hours after this game. Was shouting and yelling the entire time, gr8 game to have gone to for both teams.

  • couldn't believe we won it, shame about next week though....

  • I HATE WATCHING SOCCER. IT'S THE MOST BORING SPORT IN THE WORLD. AFL, CRICKET (TWENTY20), RUGBY UNION ARE ALL THE BEST SPORTS IN THE WORLD, NOTHING BEATS AFL. This game is Amazing!!

  • I was overseas for this game and when my dad came in and said 'you lost, 3 points' I was nearly sick :(

    But saw the Grannie!!!

  • Luke Balls Goal WAS AWESOME

  • ONE OF THE BEST GAMES IN THE WORLD

  • Game of the Year (Hawks Fan), we had our chances early on to run away and unfortunately that's that. How could either team go on to win the GF after this game? Just to think that Hawthorn were running at about 80-85% during this game in terms of injuries and missed out by one kick on making a GF. Gives you a lot to think about 2012 doesn't it?

  • Darkhawk great fair comment. From a pies fan

  • watching this never gets old.

  • Chris Tarrant - consider yourself immortalized

  • that goal by buddy, gives me shivers down my spine!

  • Oh Buddy, what an excitement machine.

  • Dale Thomas. Celebrating emphatically one week, Balling his eyes out the next, while Cameron Ling holds up the premiership cup!

  • @lolaroflmao Hey Mate Suck Dick

  • Great game - especially for a Pies fan. Bring on round 1!

  • Comment removed

  • that was the game of the year, and i cant wait for the start of the season. I wouldnt mind another tight one but obviously the same result. AFL is the most watched both on tv and live, and has the biggest memberships in the world,(per head of population). No sport comes close, believe it or not soccer ranks a long long way behinde AFL. CANT WAIT 'TIL FEB WHEN WE HGET TO SEE THIS GREAT GAME ALBEIT NAB CUP.

  • @pies4536 Actually ALF is the 3 most attended sport in the world. First is Italian Soccer league, then NFL then AFL. Both of those games require the fans to make up obnoxious chants just to keep the crowds interested whereas AFL we don't have time for that shit because its flat out action packed.......Unless you watch St Kilda play :-)

  • @Nytowl7 TYPO ON "AFL" LOLZ

  • I will never forget being at this game. Wow. Best feeling ever.

  • the greatest game in the world and I HATE Collingwood!

  • Cop that Clarkson!

    

  • Aww I hate collingwood.... PHUCK up and get over it. No one give a shit who you hate.

  • Give Buddy a set shot 35m infront when you're six goals ahead and he'll kick it out on the full.

    But make it do it or die, put a minute on the clock and 60m out on the opposite wing...

  • 6:02 i cheered so hard cos i was thinking "ANYONE BUT RIOLI"

  • Best game I've ever been to, however as a Melbourne fan, I was left shattered when the Pies won..

  • @RFurcal62 as any fan, you would be shattered when collingwood won

  • There are three games of the recent era that define AFL and all its greatness:

    2007 Preliminary Final Geelong vs Collingwood

    2009 Round 14 St. Kilda vs Geelong

    2011 Preliminary Final Collingwood vs Hawthorn

  • @aaai30 not to mention SF 2005 Sydney v Geelong where Nick Davis kicked four goals all in the last quarter to lead Sydney to a thrilling three point win.

  • @aaai30 i liked Collingwood and Adelaide in 2009

  • @aaai30 West Coast vs Carlton the week before this game was a close second for game of the year. I was hoping for a Carlton win because they play alright against the Cats and a Hawks Carlton Grand Final would have been great (I think that's what we'll get in 2012). Pity both were knocked out by less than a kick.

  • This game gave me chills. Buddy's goal was arguably the best I've ever seen. In that moment, in that position, to make something out of nothing, fucking incredible. Australian rules take a bow - epic is an understatement.

  • THE GREATEST GAME IN THE WORLD. PERIOD! I JUST LOVE AFL AND HATE PEOPLE WHO SAY SOCCER IS BETTER AS TBH, SOCCER IS THE MOST BORING SPORT IN THE WORLD!

  • im a hawks supporter and i have to day that was one of the best games i have ever seen. both teams were hungry to win. I have to say that the umpiring could have been better, with some mistakes going both ways, but this game i will remember forever!

  • collingwood dont need Leon Davis were getting a premiership defender Nathan Brown back from injury <3

  • @Pamloves1d And We Got Marty Clarke Back In Backline

  • Anyone remember what happened the week after this...? Oh, that's right, Collingfilth got beaten again in another grand final. So whilst they were lucky to get out of jail in 2010, and in this game, they couldn't get it done again. And now Leon Donuts Davis won't be in the side. Prepare for an onslaught of continuous LOSER taunts in 2012, Pie fans.

  • @Couldntgiveastuff Really,Your Saying Collngwood rely on leon to all our work for us

    You Dumbass

  • One of the best quarters of footy I've ever seen.

  • @killer13387 rioli is already 3 times the player alwyn davey was or is.

  • FRANKLIN IS A TRUE GOD/ MAGGIES I HATE UR GUTS FOR LOSING AGAINST GEELONG, MAXWELL PRANCES AROUND THE FIELD LIKE A GIRL ENJOY A MISSERABLE 2012. HAWKS PREMS 2012!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • ha this sport is the fucking gayest ever

  • oh how good was that tackle, if there's a Hawk player you don't want to have the ball, it is Rioli

  • what happened the next week

  • Best game of the year NOT telecast live into Perth! Thank goodness for Foxtel next year where they'll broadcast ALL nine games including Friday Night footy in HD.

  • This is the best game 0f season 2011 absolute classic

  • I was gutted to lose this game, but thank god we lost to Collingwood, if we'd lost to the Cats again I might have topped myself

  • 6:08  You can hear Leigh Matthews telling Cyril to kick it, just as Thomas tackles him.

  • This game, after 2 years, it beats collingwood vs adelaide 2009  final. finally this game was even more amazing than that. this game contains a huge memory, not only because of the win but because the place i spent watching it. GO Pies, its ok, we lost against Geelong, let's no wine about it and wait till next year! GO PIES <3

  • This was Pies Grand Final match and Malthouse cried cause he knew what was coming at him the following week. Great game regardless.

  • @subymy98 Yeah I totally agree, We had a great season and it just faded towards the end of the year due to out of form players and injuries but Mick would of been happy for all the good and bad he has had with Collingwood this year and previous.

    GO THE PIES!

  • the message from this game is that the better team on the night doesnt always win!

  • @johnnyalexmcdonald  hate how hawthorn lost.

  • never bought into the whole hating collingwood thing..

    would much rather lose to them than geelongor north.

    gutting loss though. love that buddy goal.

  • You all smart assess are just jealous of Collingwood club as your own clubs are disgrace ... Pies have done it 13 times way better then cats ! It was grand final and string team won ! Now quit winging and go upport your puny clubs ! Go pies ... We will do it again !

  • You al.

  • I'm glad Collingwood beat the Hawks...gave the mighty Cats the chance to embarrass the 'Flagpies" who were so cocky all year about how fricken great they r and how they r gonna win back to back flags, Geelong sure put them in their place...CATS PREMIERS '11

  • hodge +no right foot handballs to bateman +no left foot =no grand final !!

  • @whoarethebrainpigs "Mr September Leon Davis' performance (again in finals), Allan Didak handful of possies and Jarryd Blair's 3 disposals for the entire game = no grand final! Therefore your comment = FAIL!

    Didnt deserve to be there and it showed in the end when you got an arse kicking and we Hawks fans enjoyed it the most! Your just lucky you had a good coach. Love to see Bucks in that situation. Thanks Geelong and good on eddie and bucks for knifing Malthouse the way he did.

  • @fabl1980 mate...why did you assume i was a Slagpie fan ????i dont barrack for either team and I was as pissed off with the result as i've been for any game.i've watched for years .the tv remote was very lucky to survive that night,, fuck I was pissed off . I was simply observing that Hodge didnt go back inboard on his right foot and kick forward he passed to captain stumbles bateman who could've gone on his left but tried to run around on his right..got caught.. game over!!

  • @whoarethebrainpigs Number 1, I'm not you're mate. Number 2, nowhere did I mention that you were a pies fan in my first response. I was merely stating stats on the grand final like you did for the prelim final for my argument that the Pies should not have been there. Plus I hardly doubt that the inability of 2 players to kick on there non preffered foot cost them the game. Missed opportunites did! I'm pretty certain most AFL teams have players that can only kick on the one side. FAIL!

  • @fabl1980 number one,smart arse ,,get fucked !!,,number 2 you werent in the G.F because you fucking LOST, why would hawthorn deserve to be there ahead of a side they could'nt beat with a 4 goal start??total FAIL cuntox.

  • @whoarethebrainpigs Learn to spell and type correctly then get back to me with a response that people can read and make sense of. I don't care for your uneducated response. FAIL!

  • @fabl1980 listen !,when I want advice on grammatical conventions I'll consult the Oxford Concise and Fowler's ..not someone who cannot even comprehend their own writing ,, if you can read your reply, you clearly refer to "you got an,"..etc ,"your" .sic(,incorrect word, stupid ) obviously indicating you assumed I was a pies fan ,then deny it, actually the more I read that response the less sense it makes.,blair,didak,davis = no grand final!! sorry dumbcunt ..collingwood DID make the G.F!

  • @whoarethebrainpigs I love the fact that you just had a go at me about correct spelling and grammar, yet you continue to make those very same mistakes on that very same response.

    PROOF READING FAIL!

  • Ryan Schoenmakers the afl's worst player. Lost the game for the hawks

  • @Dlewl He's the one who kicked it into the forward 50 when Franklin kicked that goal. He also had a 92% disposal efficiency that night.

  • As a one eyed Collingwood supporter, i really want to hate Buddy for being so good (not to mention carving us up so many times over the years) but i can't . Fuck he is good

  • Dale Thomas saved the game GO PIES!

  • @nickthebeast456 dale thomas couldnt do didley squat against geelong in the GF

  • Rioli, Hawks Alwyn Davey

  • eddie mcguire is the best president i've seen. actually has emotion and shows it unlike gary pert who just stood up and clapped

  • @behappyproductions09 what do you expect ,he's an employee ,,not a fan ..2 years down the track he'll be at another club if the money's right.

  • Seems I was wrong by judging all/most Hawks supporters as sore losers after reading some of the recent comments. Yes losing sucks, but as a Pies fan who remembers the 80's and 90's well, you learn to suck it up and move on. Not dwelling and bitching over the 'If's'.

  • great game. hopefully the pies can create a dynasty and win another this week :)

  • @LukeclanTV2 hopefully fucking not

  • @LukeclanTV2 hahahah um the pies dynasty was officially flushed down the toilet by " the greatest team of all 2011 "

  • Anyone who thinks AFL isn't the greatest game in the world just needs to watch this match. As a Hawks supporter I was gutted with the result and it still hurts to watch this, but damn it was an amazing ride! Buddy's goal was one of the greatest moments I've ever witnessed, it's a shame the Hawks couldn't get the result that the goal deserved

    The umpires may have dudded us in the last quarter but their errors were not as crucial as some misses we had during the game. We lost fair and square.

  • @darkhawk1979 Yes footy is a great game but the greatest game in the world is stretching it a bit.Soccer the real football is the best game in the world that's why it's called The world game.

  • @TheDsorda Actually it's called the "World Game" because it is the most widely watched and played football code, and this is mainly because it requires the cheapest equipment and isn't intimidating like Aussie Rules, NHL, NFL etc.

    Don't get me wrong, I like soccer and play Futsal every Monday night, I just can't see another football code being as constantly enthralling as AFL, as this game showcased.

  • I can imagine if the pies lose the GF, the ferrals would go on a riot/looting spree.

  • As a Hawks supporter i'm gutted about this game, but we lost it for ourselves. Sure, the umpires might have missed a few free kicks here and there, but we should have iced the game in the third quarter anyway. Bateman's turnover were costly too

  • Great sportsmanship showed by the players after the game. Acknowledging one of the great finals. As a Hawks supporter it was gut wrenching, but that's footy, that's footy. Pies are not one our rivals so I'm okay with the loss. If it was North Melbourne or Essendon I'd be raging for the rest of my life haha. Pies will win the GF on the back of this.

  • Collingwood rule hawthorn suck its so simple

  • @jackstacey2001

    Spoken like a true collingwood supporter. No respect for the opposition.

    Geelong is licking their lips. RIP Collingwood.

  • Fuck you Hawthorn supporters whinge and complain! You didn't beat Collingwood or Geelong the whole year, the 2 best teams are in the Grand Final anyway! You are nothing but a bunch of old whinging cry babies who need to grow a pair and suck it up!

    Geelong would have smashed you anyway.. lullll

  • @liltwang Whatever you like. Such language from such a new little Australian. Bless.

  • probably not by 96 points though bruce lee.

  • Good game, Hawthorn missed opportunities, Collingwood didn't. Can't wait for next week!

    Go Cats!!

  • The Noise was unbelievable, the whole last quarter...

  • Let it hurt boys & girls.... Bring out all the excuses you like, it still won't change the result..... GO PIES!!!!

  • The only thing that didn't happen for Hawthorn was the siren going immediately after the "Buddy goal""... suck it up Hawthorn. Why don't you complain that the Thomas tackle on Rioli was in the back!! Hawks were the more aggressive and controlling team and yet couldn't pull away. Suck it up, it's been 20 years since we've been in a position like this with a team capable of winning finals. 20 long YEARS!! We may not win a flag ever again, but when it comes around you take every opportunity.

  • Umpires didnt throw away a 4 goal lead, collingwood were just too good in the end, had more and desire to win, umpires were dodgy all night both ways, and this pains me to say as im a carlton supporter, but this is fact

  • @chirmchirm Respect.

  • @chirmchirm the upmost respect for you. 

  • @chirmchirm A very smart and nice carlton supporter, ur one in a million.

  • @chirmchirm respect.

  • @chirmchirm can - because they have brilliance. We played injured. We have lost 5 of our starting lineup including a forward in Roughhead that would have put your little boy Obrien to the sword if he'd played. But like I said - keep on believing that your side deserved it mate. Sore loser? Yup. Your side is lucky - or protected. I mean hey which is the bigger crowd in a grand final anyway? Magpies V Cats or Hawks V Cats? Thats how I think a couple of those "silly" little umpiring errors

  • @cggr100 just shows how biased and oblivious to the fact collingwood were better that you didnt even read that i said i am a carlton supporter, i dont care about the rest of the jibberish you wrote, coz its all shit, there was burgoynes holding the ball after advantage that wasnt paid and dawes push in the back also, few dodgy ones both ways, pies too classy in the end... end comments

  • @chirmchirm happen late in games I'm sure. And no - we don't get the GF this year - but looking at the state of the supporters from collingwood I came across on friday night - you all need a good wash - and to stop spending your baby bonuses on football. Grubs. Bogan trash. But enjoy the win - hope its enough to make the rest of your pov-arse life seem ok. Not being a sore loser - but life is what it is chum.

  • @cggr100 Hey man, what are you doin' next week?

  • @liltwang Working - I have a job. You should try it instead of being a parasite.

  • @cggr100 Sorry, I didn't make it clear for you. I am also working. I meant next Saturday afternoon, at around 2:30?

  • @liltwang Mate - F&*ck off. I dont care what you think. About anything. Or about you - or about your pack of illiterate bogans that you support. I certainly wont be watching what will be one of the more boring GFs in recent memory - Cats? Whatever? Centrelink Magpies, Malthouse? whatever. That annoying little bitch of a carsalesman that does the millionaire show - whatever. Dime a dozen mate. You - your team... hawks were brilliant - flawed, injured, umpire screwed - but brilliant.

  • @cggr100 Mate, I support Geelong.. One of the more boring Grand Finals? You must have alzheimer's. You can't remember 2007 when Geelong won by 119 points? How about 2008 when Hawthorn 'stole' a Grand Final on the back of Geelong's poor kicking and ELEVEN rushed behinds! The rule was changed because of that game! The 2009 low scoring Grand Final? This year will be a massive game between two teams that have CLEARLY been the best all year. You're just sour 'cause your over-rated team isn't there.

  • "Man"

  • @chirmchirm agreed. enough of this "if the umpires had of called that our way we would have won" nonsense. thats bullshit. there were so called 'bad calls' either way.... why? because its a preliminary final, the umpires did the right thing in a huge game, dont be picky with little free kicks, just let it go, and let the two teams play the game.. collingwood were just too good in the end, and the umpires were great for letting the game flow

  • GO PIES

    

  • @chirmchirm I agree I'm a carlton supporter also in the end the Pies deserved the win,Hawthorn just ran out of legs to be honest.

  • Umpires -3 Collingwood 8=D.

    Enough said, Hawthorn were fucking robbed.

  • @willo18795 : take a look at 3:10 left....I guess the umpire made Schoenmakers drop that uncontested mark?? UNCONTESTED!!!!, this forces a stoppage and Ball scores the winning goal 15 seconds later. Schoenmakers lost it for the Hawks right there. He should hang his head as a professional footballer for that clanger that cost his team a GF place. Collingwood don't need help from umpires when opposition players stuff up all by themselves.

  • @44ozzie44 They didn't need it but they sure did get it. The seasons over, I am just glad Collingwood were smashed... again.

  • hawtorn shoulda won....buddy didnt do enough, or rioli.

  • @thesweetguy34 I doubt that hand punched thin air. Regardless, I seem to make out the umpire saying 'dragged it in' which is nonsense

  • Leigh Matthews: "This is Greatness"- the tagline of the 2011 Toyota AFL Finals series and who do you tip for the grand final?

  • When did Hawthorn supporters become such utter whingers and whiners? You weren't like that in the 90s...

  • I'm a West Coast fan but this match was amazing.

  • Lol at that holding the ball on puoplo probably cost hawthorn the goal what a disgraceful call like so many others

  • Ive never seen a team dominate a game of afl so much and end up losing it. What a disgusting display. How broken our sport has become when the favourites will just win even when they have no answer and are getting beaten. Good job umpires!

  • To all the Hawks supporters that are crying re free kicks, PLEEEEASE, they let the game flow as they ALWAYS do in tight finals. PLENTY of frees would've gone our way too if it was any other time of the year eg Burgoyne dropping the ball after choosing to take the advantage rule. The fact is you CHOKED and choked HARD.

    Look, you're not good enough, simple as that. 0 - 5 against the 2 GF teams who just happen to be the 2 top teams all year. Simply put, that means you're just not that GOOD...

  • @carlspackler1990 last 4 minutes free kicks for Collingwood 4 Hawthorn 0

  • @thesweetguy34 Got rid of the ball correctly tho?

  • 1:16 - High tackle hawthorn free kick

    1:27 - push in back no free kick to hawthorn

    1:30 - holding/dropping the ball should of been free kick hawthorn

    4:38 - clearly not holding the ball had no prior + made correct disposal

    CORRUPT GAME

  • @SonyCamry 6:54 collingwood win the game, shut the fuck up you sore loser, eat a dick.

  • @SonyCamry hahaha that push in the back you're on about at 1:27 has to be a joke right? Then the holding the ball afterwards was stiff not to be an in the back free kick to Dawes

  • @ItsTheChizz Um are you mentall retarted dawes jumped in his back and didnt even win the ball if thats not free kick then thats not AFL

  • @SonyCamry Then how about you umpire if you think there was so many free kicks. Stop complaining and trying to make the game even weaker than Demetriou has.

  • @SonyCamry Spoken like a true SOREthorn supporter, blame everone else.  Eat a teaspoon of cement and harden up!

  • @SonyCamry So i guess you're going for the Pies this week?

  • COOLLIINNGGWWOODD

  • GO PIES!!!!

  • as a neutral fan the better team clearly prevailed ... the pies have played at a MUCH higher standard than the hawks for a longer ... in this epic battle they played WELL below their best and still won the game. It looked like the hawks threw everything at them and still lost.

  • Hawthorn supporters are without a doubt the sorest losers. They blame everyone else for their team throwing away a 4 goal lead!

  • @itsfullysick during the game when the pies were losing, i saw a collingwood blog where members were saying things like "want my money back after this pathetic performance"

  • @Borgmeister100 Cool Story..... Got a link?

  • @itsfullysick Rubbish. Magpies lucked in here. 3 key free kicks not given:

    1) Hodge deep in Hawks forward line for over shoulder Vs 50m penalty given against Savage for what?! Cost a goal

    2) Holding onto Gibson by Magpie full forward - clearly missed - cost a goal

    Also Hawks own worst enemies with 3 key missed goals and Batemans effort last quarter with 3 turnovers was just crazy - he's heading for the margin bin in trade season I think.

  • @itsfullysick Not sore losers though mate - I remember you guys last year after the final round loss bitching after that game for weeks (until Magpies won the flag). You won - a win is a win. We should have - and you and everyone else knows it - but just keep believing that the best side won if you like mate ;) - I'm sure the Cats will set that straight for you this week. You have a boring side - good players sure - but boring. You can't beat Geelong for that reason - Hawks, Sydney

  • @cggr100 Sorry champ, but going by your various responses, you are an extremely sore loser.

  • Nice of the umps to ruin it in such a big game in the last mins. 4.38 no free kick and technically after that when rioli got tackled cause he did dispose of it in a decent timeframe...thats play on in my book in the heat of the game..just let them play ..

  • @thesweetguy34 No way is that a free

  • Man, this was a gutting loss. I just love the last couple of minutes though, where the players thank each other for a great game. In the middle of all that elation and bitter disappointment, there is a genuine sportsmanship and respect for the opponent on display that is heartwarming.

  • @BernValley & thats the way the game should be played hey? Bust your guts trying to win & commend each other after the game. I go for Collingwood but I have to admire the Hawks for the way they held themselves after that game.

  • @BernValley & thats the way the game should be played hey? Bust your guts trying to win & commend each other after the game. I go for Collingwood but I have to admire the Hawks for the way they held themselves after that game.

  • @BernValley as a collingwood man i reckon hawthorn would have won the gf if they had of got in

  • i don't care about this year's grand final anymore

  • This game nearly killed me. Pretty sure my heart stopped.

  • collingwood are annoying!!!!!!!

  • should have ended with the Buddy goal would have made it SO much better anyway we'll be back in 2012

  • Collingwood showed grit, but received so much help from the umpires.

  • 4:38 WTF?

  • Thank You Very Much Mate

  • Great upload? Any chance of uploading some more of the last quarter? Or the whole of it? Would love to see it again.

  • 1 person was a hawthorn suppoter

  • mick crying :(

  • And to think it was nearly Mick's last game!!!!!!

    He's still got one more left now!!!!!!

    Go the Pies!!!!!!!! :)

  • You bewdy!! Proud as punch of the Pies!!!

  • CARN THE PIES
