Evans completely outclassed today after all his hype. All it took was one week of somebody actually marking him out of the game.

I wouldn't say he was marked out of the game. Jaffas just pressured him anytime he got so his output was always gonna be limited
The other week Jets Yoof let him have the ball and he killed them.
Didn't really notice him being man marked just closed down when he got the ball
Didn't the card count end up with something like 6-2 to the Jaffas? Ref seemed to let a lot of Weston players off, and he lost all credibility when he booked Ireland for moving the ball 2m away from where a FK was meant to be. Jaffas deserved it though.
Also, how ****ing stupid by Evans. I know he was probably baited all game, but **** me, it was stupid.
Also watched the 22s. The red to Olympic was for a shirt tug when the jet was clear through. Thought it was fair enough tbh, although he could have given a yellow as the jet was moving away from goal and the Olympic keeper was quick off his line. But Olympic deserved it, Olympics keeper only had 1 real save to make in the second half, was a top save too, if the ball was still in play

Disappointing for Weston but were outclassed by the jaffas. Weston keeper clearly not 100% and probably would have thought he could have prevented both goals when at his best. Surprised that Piggott didn't change their shape and go three at the back or do something.
Btw first time I have seen a player who was subbed at halftime in a grand final, shower grab a beer and stand on the hill.
Any idea on what the crowd figure was??

I hate to say but Edgeworth put on a great show yesterday... although the game wasnt the best...Gives rise to other grounds hosting the grand final...I think that Broadmeadow wont be hosting for a while. I have always loved watching games from Adamstown oval and some other grounds could host it if they put in similar work to what edgeworth has over the last couple of years.
Well I had a pretty good day all up, inadvertently sat in what appeared to be the baby jets squadron for the first two games so got a bit of a laugh from the heckles going back and forth between them and the olympic bench. First grade was an interesting game, maybe some would say boring but unfortunately for Weston they just didn't turn up. Was also my first look at the Kale and Maj combo and thought they were combining well with Jobe, shame they wont be together again next year. Have seen some talk about Jobe being reconsidered at the Jets but I think being outstanding for the Jaffas is a good leap away from being useful at HAL level, happy to be proven wrong though. Referee did give out a fair bit of cheese, but I imagine he was just erring on the side of the game not getting out of control, fairly reasonable in a GF. Also my first look at the updated Edgy facilities and wasn't disappointed, though I was a little bit devastated I couldn't get my traditional bucket of hot chips with all their greasy salty goodness.
There was a lack of toilets... 4 portaloos on the far side of the field where most people were sitting/standing. It was quite annoying needing a piss in 1st grade and it taking 5 or so minutes to line up!
WE DON'T DO WALKING AWAY !
I thought it was a pretty dumb play. The Jets kid although through was no certainty to get to the ball before the keeper anyway and then still had to score. Seemed rather needless to concede the foul particularly with 60 mins to go as the consequences were always gonna be red.
It was as clear a red for professional foul as you will ever see I can't believe people disagree
