Anyone else still get teary eyed when Joel kicks that banana goal seeing his reaction or is just me

Google the photo captured by Getty Images of Patrick Dangerfield lifting Joel Selwood by his jumper after that goal - what a fantastic image full of so many emotions! (On their website - Search AFL Joel Selwood 2022 Grand Final)

No one around the world gives a toss about your Cats. Eggball is stupid. No one outside Australia has heard of AFL. All players after playing that game will have a lifetime of misery during and after playing and for what? So Aussies can cheer them on for kicking an egg around?

[@TOGFszn]

Wow sends chills down my spine Geelongs old run of finals made me cry for the last couple of years but in 2020 I got my hope back but then after that loss and then the on after the 2021 prelim against Melbourne I gave up, but after the prelim against Brisbane I got my hope back and when the cats won the grand final I was so happy, good luck against the pies cats and best of luck in 2023! Geelongs old weekness was that we were playing to slow we needed a fast ofencive sort of attacking midfield and when we didn’t do that we couldn’t score enough against bigger teams just like Melbourne ,Richmond,Freo,Carlton,Sydney,Brisbane so now we are not as slow in defence and midfield like man on man our play is completely the opposite of the pies Again good luck to the cats, and best of luck to all the other teams in 2023!

Goosebumps👏👏👏 2011-2022 Truly remarkable level of consistency between Chris Scott premierships…🏆🏆Always in the hunt for the flag. You could even go further and say 2007-2022 the Geelong Football Club has been the most consistent, footy club for that entire period of any club in the world.. 4 Flags; finals every year, (practically) prelims galore. And NEVER rebuilt. Insane It’s gotta be up there in world sports. Wonderful achievement. In saying all that …….GO LIONS!!! 🦁🏆🏆🏆🏆

a year ago and i still tear up thinking about the 22 season. i snuck into the grounds in the last ten minutes because these corprate sydney supporters gave us their tickets as they were leaving and ill forever be greatful for the chance to share that moment with my family. looking nice this year go cattas

Probably weren’t the best side 2022 in spite of an impressive win loss ratio. Demons probably better but had so much go wrong second half of season. Geelong premiership was just reward for being up there so regularly that when an opportunity presented they took it
