i know it has been a really really really long time, but here is another video, and i dont really do requests any more sorry guys it just got to be too much.
Going back and watching this, you realise how underrated this match is when compared to other recent grand finals. Cats kicking away in the last qtr doesn't take away from the battle that took place in the first 3
@MUFC mate are you really that insecure about your precious sport that you spend your days commenting on every single AFL video? You need help my friend
Like anything extreme , your views on the place of football are mildly disturbing. The no.1 sport in every country by 2100 ? For a starter there’s over 1 billion people ( A 5th of the worlds population) in India that would probably disagree with you. Calm down and take a few deep breaths would be my suggestion.
yeah this is easily one of the top 5 grand finals of the 21st century. I still enjoy coming back and watching this as a collingwood supporter, because these days AFL isn't as good to watch. This era is amazing
How good! Absolutely smashed them in the last qtr! Didn’t even score a goal Collingwood!! I was there- greatest sporting day of my life- nothing better than beating Collingwood in a Grand Final. Go Cats!!!
Most underrated goal ever . There's a clip however where Mathew Lloyd says "it will go down in grand final folk lore" and it should. It wins any goal of the year hands down and the importance of it is undeniable . What a star ! 🌟
@MUFC SBS is the world game. Yes soccer is the biggest sport around the world. Go Manchester United. AFL and cricket is the biggest sports in Australia.
@MUFC How fucking sad and pathetic is your life. Every time I watch an AFL video I see you posting the same crap. If that's all you've got to contribute that's fine. Then why do keep commenting on AFL videos, not insecure much are you.
MUFC is a fkn cock sucking flog!! Says the same shit on any sport post other than soccer.. What a pathetic loser with to much time on his hands.. Get a job u fkn wanker!!
Cats ran away with it in the last quarter, but my goodness those first 3 quarters were setting up what could have been the greatest grand final of all time!
running away with it and allowing the fans to celebrate during the final quarter is arguably more epic. This was a better grand final than 2005 and 2018, both had famously close endings 2006 and 2011 are 2 of the best -collingwood supporter
I missed the good old days of the AFL on Channel 10. After Channel 10 lost the AFL, it was game over 100%. Channel 10 never recovered after they lost the AFL rights.
I remember watching this game thinking the fact Collingwood kept kicking goals from 50m was the only thing keeping them in it, and watching this now that was so true lol
This game was the absolute best the cats beat Collingwood in the 2011 grand final great win cats I was at that grand final cheering on the mighty cats let's go the cats
This video is poorly edited or if not it shows without a doubt there’s no reason he deserved the norm smith. Can’t remember the day off the top of my head but i remember clear as day I tripped balls when he won the norm smith. Doesn’t even get 10 possessions as a starting mid who is a Brownlow medallist aswell. Hawkins Varcoe and Johnson had more footy and kicked 3 aswell. But as I said it’s either the undeniable proof he didn’t deserve to win it or that this video is poorly edited and takes away what was his “norm smith performance”... which if he did deserve I wouldn’t deny but is just disrespectful to leave out the proof in the pudding footage that convinces those who question or need reassurance looking back on it that he did deserve it, but from what’s provided here, you would think he is the least deserving norm smith winner since the award was introduced in 79. Other one I question is Ryan o’keefe but id have to rewatch 2012 to clarify on that comment but from memory and what I can see those two are the least deserving medals handed out.
I was at this one. The only sour note came from MeatLoaf. Oh, and the moronic "Collingwood" chant as Pods was carried off. The Pies only lost three games that year. Guess who to.
Probably the best sporting day of my life- beating Collingwood anytime is good, but in a grand final it’s just so fucking good. I was there and nothing will ever top that experience.
I think season's have become more close, more unpredictable in their games as of recent, however grand final's have still been quite obtuse in the scoreline differences. Definitely the 2008-2011 grand finals were so epic in their closeness and spectacle.
Probably due to the fact that from 2013 to 2017, the GF matchups were: Freo vs Hawks. Sydney vs Hawks. West Coast vs Hawks. Sydney vs WB. Adelaide vs Richmond. In all of those matches, it has been a home side against an interstate team. The trend seems to give the impression that travelling to a GF may have an impact on game day. Or, the interstate teams that made it were simply switched off on the day because in most of those years, the interstate teams that lost beat the team that won in a previous matchup that year. The MCG is proving to be a fortress for Richmond atm and if they make it again, well, there's no point lol. The 2012 GF is probably an exception, the Hawks lost it from inaccuracy. The 2011 one was Geelong being the better team on the day. 2010 similar story. 2009 GF is probably one of the best GFs I have seen. 2008 was a year Geelong let slip. 2007, well, lol. Interstate teams just find it too difficult to play at the MCG. Whether it is ground coverage or nerves related, they just find it too much for some reason. Also, home sides get to train in Melbourne conditions, can be a huge factor. The best grand finals are the 2005 and 2006 GFs. Equally as good as each other. Two interstate teams at war.
@@amer-du6qh 05 was a terrible Grand Final. Just frustrating to watch because it was a stoppage fest and only 15 goals were kicked for the entire match. People only rate it so highly because of the finish. 06 was miles better than 05. The best Grand Final I have ever seen is 2012. That game well and truly had everything you could ask for in a game of football. The only Grand Final that has come close to being as good as 2012 was 2018. As sweet as it was seeing the Pies lose a Grand Final, the skills in that game weren't as good in comparison to 2012
@Jayden LOADER I wasn't alive for the 2002 GF, so I can't say it's the best I've seen. 2009 GF was very tough and was close all game, but St Kilda's brand of footy made it a pretty boring game at times. Walked away from the TV many times during the '09 GF to play with toys due to being bored of the way St Kilda played. 2010 Draw was easily a better spectacle than than '09, but the lack of an actual result means that it isn't the best Grand Final I've seen. I still prefer the 2012 Grand Final over all of them
@@mabiorcholappreciationpage I wasn't around and can't remember footy before 2011 but i still watch the old ones.2002 is really fun to watch, I love 04 cause man those 3 goals to get port ahead and watching brisbane lose was fun. 05 was good i like 05, 2006 is actually awesome yes i agree.i Love watching 07 cause geelong fan here, 08 i hate but i gotta admit it was well done by hawthorn. 09 yeah was good and all, and you get the picture. 2012 is really awesome too.
When one team appears to have more players on the ground than the opposition, it means that either one team is working harder, or one team's fitness fizzled out. I think Collingwood tired.
The Pies looked absolutely cooked going into the finals that year, with all the shit happening with Cloke and Malthouse. This is really one theyd look back on say it got away from them. They were the best team all year, bar GF day.
the pies we at least equel with the cats in the first 3 quarters - just seemed to tire too much in the last. im a cat fan but hold a mighty respect for the pies
Collingwood really deserved the flag that year, we were the best team that year losing only three games (All of them against Geelong) but literally pummeled every other team, we were on absolute fire that season.
Doesn't matter how good you are if there is a team that has your number and geelong had collingwood figured out and smashed them every time, winning the flag
In your opinion yes. But there were over 99,000 people at the G that day that would disagree with you . Nevermind all of us who weren’t there but still love AFL.

Lingy kicking the last goal of the game, in the last game of his career, as he leads a premiership victory as captain…. Beautiful.
Cats captains winning a flag in their last ever game, Selwood, Ling and Harley. Dangerfield next year?
I like how it keeps going back to eddies face every time cats kick a goal 😂😂😂

Travis Varcoe - greatest Cats goal ever.
was going to like this, but currently it has 5 likes - varcoe's number at Geelong, so i'll leave it :)
Most underrated goal ever . There's a clip however where Mathew Lloyd says "it will go down in grand final folk lore" and it should. It wins any goal of the year hands down and the importance of it is undeniable . What a star ! 🌟
Can’t love this enough. Probably my happiest and proudest day as a Geelong supporter
Well I can think of a day just a bit better
Agree
As a Geelong supporter, watching this back gives me nostalgia and goosebumps. Also happens to be exactly 10 years since this video was uploaded!
Pendlebury hasn’t aged or lost his ability at all. Still a great player
Did loose his hair tho 😂
Capt ling kicking the last goal. 2022 with capt joel doing the same thing. Golly darn it the cats know how to play the game at home or far away.
The cats were the only team to beat Collingwood in 2011.

The last game
Footy was better on Ten.

Well it’s always great to revisit when we won the flag to forget the misery last night and past years 😂
How good was Varcoe’s third goal???

Doesn't matter how good you are if there is a team that has your number and geelong had collingwood figured out and smashed them every time, winning the flag
Geelong were better, plain and simple, far better list and performed better when it mattered
Poor Pies bs cats.
Cats always beat them in the finals
Since then it's been failure after failure by Chris Scott and the club still persists with him!
looking good this season though, fingers crossed
the cats hit the finals most years - 2015 exempt - but cant quite get past the prelim stage maybe this year
Scott's a turd. And he failed again.
We're back again💪 hopefully a repeat
