Your comparison with ice hockey is spot on. Most sports go my turn/your turn. AFL and ice hockey are the only two sports where the ball/puck is perpetually contested. A unique aspect of both sports that makes both sports great.
Great stuff Johnny - love your passion. Mason Cox is a great story - when you are at the game and he take a mark or kicks a goal the crowd yell "USA USA USA" - its extraordinary and a lot of fun. Pies supporters love him.
Also, an important context is the pies coach Craig McRae was part of the lions 3 back to back premierships. That's why he acknowledged he would always have a soft spot for the lions.
Brilliant summation of the Grand Final. You have quickly and insightfully grasped an excellent knowledge of our great game. I’m an absolute Collingwood fanatic, was at the game and am now in heaven. But you covered our win in a very even handed and detailed way. More power to you. Very impressive stuff. Go Pies.
Fantastic review Johnny, well said! Next year, I think it's time for you to come over to Australia and watch the Lions play at the Gabba, you'll have a blast! Thanks for your kind words. I was there at the Grand Final, the Lions are the most scary team for us to face and an amazing team! - Pies supporter
gday johnny rock and the overtimes. great reviewing all year. glad you've found our game and enjoyed it now you understand the rules and tactics. enjoyed all your reviews and the passion you deliver. hope you and the family stay well and enjoy the xmas new year. see you soon in the basement

@@gb-vw9vh you too have a good off season and I'll try and keep in touch on what going on. Like with me yesterday I went and met my Labrador pup for the first time he is only 4 weeks old and I have a few more weeks before I pick him up.
Mason Cox will be down in Sarasota this weekend for the USAFL nationals, games will be live streamed, check it out my man, so glad you are back and got to keep up with the season. Good health man!
Lions did not play their man. They were playing 'blow fly' football - that means they followed the ball and didnt even know where collingwood players were. At least they kept trying up to the end. Lets hope we dont wait for another 19 years for them to be in the grand final. Collingwood deserved the win
Yeah they certainly didn't stick to the game plan that got them there in the first place! Focused more on defence they probably would of got over the line
Umpiring an AFL game is different to umpiring most other sports. Umpires not only enforce the rules of the game, but also are expected to encourage the flow of the game, and this is even more so in finals footy. The result is that many minor infringements are not penalised, while others are called and immediately rescinded for 'advantage' to keep the game moving. The continued flow of the game means that even if an umpire does realise they made a mistake, there really is no allowance for them to take it back. In the contentious infringement late in this grand final, while the player was obviously tripped, the ball was immediately in clean possession of a team mate, and the umpire quickly called 'advantage', with the (required by management) desire to keep the game moving. 'Advantage', however, dissipated as soon as it was called, meaning that the wiser umpiring decision would have been to pull the game up. The umpire's decision was quick, and not necessarily wrong with regards to the way they are instructed to manage the flow of the game, but hindsight says he should have probably recognised there was no real advantage and paid the free kick instead.
It's as simple as this... if a player chooses to continue playing after a whistle for a free, then the player has chosen to take advantage, or if it's a free kick for the opposition, then it would be a 50 metre penalty the other way. The brissy player decided to take advantage, but he screwed up his kick due to pressure. No crying about being cheated should be engaged.
Many Australians including past players and commentators have rated this as one of the greatest GF ever there have been many close games but not only was this close but there were many high quality goals some amazing individual performances and goal (you might guess I am a Collingwood fan by the swooping Magpie as my profile pic)
totally love how interested you are with our Aussie footy and how much you know too it's amazing to me, it's something special!, My number 1 team is the West Coast Eagles, but if I had to choose a team from my own actual state of Victoria here in Australia it would otherwise be the Richmond Tigers, That's my two favourite teams, My father is a Magpies member. We have this Aussie thing that we only buy merch for our one team, it's more of this true blue loyalty with one team, I see in Canada they collect all team clothing, but in Australia we only buy for our supported team
Love the enthusiasm haha! Why do you go for Brisbane? Dont get me wrong great team to go for but I would have thought an american would just go for Collingwood because of Mason Cox Watching the video you even refer to them as 'the pies' haha love it.
I'm from Adelaide in south Australia and am a port Adelaide power supporter and will always go for any non Victorian team in any Grand final, shame the Lions could not quite get over the line to win. I was really hoping for a Gws , greater Western Sydney vs Brisbane. And yes , I am another who hates Collingwood 🤣 Awesome that you show interest and like our game of AFL 👌
I’ve enjoyed watching your AFL journey this year (and your Aussie music journey too!) Amazing that both the teams you selected ended up in the GF. I hope you’re well mate. Looking forward to more videos.
Really well presented, your enthusiasm captured the moment. Collingwood probably deserved to win based on the year they had, that's not to say I enjoyed watching them beating the Lions!! Well done, I'm not petty or spiteful, but I wouldn't be unhappy if that bunch of little handbags called collingwood finish rock bottom next year!! (I'll leave it your imagination as to what handbag means) GO THE LIONS!!!

This a far better analysis of the game than our own media 😂 I got a feeling your Lions are going to be in the grand final again next year. I think they have the best list in the comp.
Well done mate, very impressed with your level of knowledge after only one year. I have enjoyed all of your videos that i have seen. Our other footy code grand final is on today. NRL (The national rugby league ). Brisbane Broncos vs Penrith Panthers. I would love to get your take on it. It is not Rugby. Different rules.
Im an aussie in okc! What an unreal game. Thanks mate, oh for sure you can get on screaming and yelling,please do, i did lol, xx il be watching when you do 👍Go Pies x
G'day Johnny. Really love seeing your passion for our game, your commentary was spot on. We can bag the umpires but in the end Brisbane had their chances but couldn't capitalise, there were too many players MIA. The Pies deserved the win 🏆
Great game, everyone looks for reasons and excuses as to why they lost, Brisbane complaining about the umpires in the last 1/4, the missed shots at goal in the last 1/4, had Collingwood lost we’d be complaining about the umps too, or the 18 behinds we scored, realistically we should’ve won by 40, in the end it was a great spectacle that it was so close and that’s all that matters
We lost the game when Berry gave away that 50m penalty late in the fourth qtr. (Sidebottom) That's when I said "well that's the game". sorry we couldn't bring it home for ya Johnny. Here's hoping for success next year but, as you have found out, it's really difficult just to get to the Grand Final, let alone win it. All we can do is hope. One consolation is that I'm glad that Mason Cox finally got to be part of a winning side, he deserves it after persisting for so long and putting everything into it.
Not a word about the ball being out of bounds ( missed by the umpires ) late in the last quarter, which led to Daniher's goal. A disgraceful NON call that nearly cost the Magpies victory. Both teams showed great ticker and both will remain strong in the coming years. Magpies forever.
What about the out on the full earlier in the game that wasn't given. What about Nick Faicos ducking and getting 3 free kicks. Ducked enough to make a pond worth. Meanwhile Starcevich got decapitated and NO call. First half umpiring was deplorably biased towards Collingwood. It improved a bit in the 2nd half until that disgraceful advantage call
I dont know about the second berry 50 meter penalty - seemed like standard unwritten rule of slowing down the opposition after a mark to stop the breakaway. Collingwood supporters shouting behind didnt help, but im in the minority anyways..
Excellent review Johnny. What a game we were all treated to. Got to hand it to the pies, the best team won and their coach is making so much harder to dislike Collingwood. And might I say, excellent job in leaving that pies jumper for the most part,out of the review
Well Bagger Dave we now have to live with very happy Collingwood supporters telling us how great they are for a whole year. It's going to be a long year
We done our best Johnny we fell 4 points short i was 1 of the 100,000 there watching from the stands i'd love to show you the photos i took from the game i;m sure you'd love them ,disappointing to lose at least it wasn't a blowout ...All aboard the Detroit Lions for NFL season Go Lions
It was a great game, the lead changing all game. Tonight another Grand Final was played in sydney. The NRL Rugby league final between the penrith Panthers and The Brisbane Broncos. Just like the AFL Final we had one local team vs a Queensland team and just like Collingwood, the local team won by 2 points. Watch it when you can it was epic. Remember though it is Rugby League not Rugby union. Once you know the rules, you would love it. The ball can only be passed Backwards, they get 6 passes and try to score a Try by getting the ball over the try line, much like NFL but in Rugby the ball must touch the ground to be a valid try. much more of course but it's a start i you are interested in watching it,
It sure was an amazing game! My team won, I am very proud of the boys. Our last Grand Final was 2020, it was our time. On top all year, we deserved that win. My Hubby is from N.Y.C. he is a Yankees fan & a Collingwood fan. He often says that they hate the Yankees fans just like they hate us Collingwood fans, do we care? not one bit. :)
The umpire called advantage because he handballed it after he blew his whistle for the trip and then the bloke he handballed it to kicked it forward instead of stopping.

HI Johnny Wow your first AFL season and have enjoyed the ride with you and the Guys that I've met a long the way and been to a few games with. If you do get a chance and drop in a few lines in the discord . Now with Collingwood winning and living in Melbourne you have that saying There Goes The Neighborhood
@@petermcculloch4933 True i will re phrase- Members - Collingwood (106,470), West Coast Eagles (103,275), and Richmond (101,349) led the 2023 membership tallies with all three clubs surpassing 100,000 members and Collingwood setting a new all-time AFL club record with 106,470 members...Swans 62000 but yes you are correct
It’s been a fantastic season and I’m happy that your Lions got there for the grand final mate. And what a great game both teams put on for us to enjoy. I also can’t wait for next season. Port supporter.
Umpires shmumpires 😂😂😂 the Pies deserved this win 'HANDS DOWN' 🤍🖤🤍🖤🤍🖤 TEAM OF STARS 🌟🌟 All teams suffer and benefit from umps decisions... Stop crying and deal with it 😂. 22 to 16 frees in Brissies favour. Great review mate 👍
"Play on advantage" is only called after the advantage is taken. The Brisbane player (Neale) was tripped as he handpassed it & the umpire clearly blew the whistle to pay the free kick. After that, another Brisbane player (Bailey) kicked the ball. That's when the umpire called ,"Advantage". It was Bailey's choice, not the umpires. Just because the kick went to Collingwood & was not Marked by a Brisbane player, that's just too bad. Think about it, if everytime taking Advantage didn't work out, all they had to do is say they didn't hear the whistle, they would just say that, whether they actually heard it or not. Put it this way, if it had been a Collingwood player that kicked the ball after the whistle, then that would've been a 50mtr penalty on top of the free kick. Can't argue you didn't hear the whistle. That works both ways. 100% correct umpiring! TV commentators & former players need to learn the rules, instead of making an issue when there isn't one.
The only reason they'd have played on in that situation if they really had heard the umpire had awarded a free, was if they'd seen a Brisbane player in the clear closer to goal that they could pass it to. There was no such player, so they clearly played on because they were unaware the umpire had awarded a free. The umpire should've recognised this and stopped proceedings.
@darrylschultz9395 Absolute rubbish! It's not the umpires job to second-guess players. They can't read minds or know what a player is thinking or if they have or have not heard the whistle. If it had been a Collingwood player that kicked the ball after the whistle, that would've been a 50 mtr penalty, whether they had heard the whistle or not. The choice to play on in that or any situation is the players choice, not the umpires. It is now & always has been that way. Prove me wrong, show me just one time in the history of the game, a situation where a player decided to play on & because it didn't work out, the umpire recalled it & gave the free kick anyway. Just one. Umpires don't tell players when to play on. They simply call play on after a player has done so.
@tcullen3684 You say it was the player's choice to play on, but such a thing as making a choice is only possible when the player has an awareness a free kick has been awarded. In this instance there was clearly no such awareness-therefore no such thing as choosing what to do next, existed. In the player's mind, he was just doing the only thing available-i.e, continuing to play-and choice didn't come into it. I concede Brisbane still may not have won if the player had heard the whistle, and chosen to take the free kick(as it seems likely they would've done, since they were close enough to kick the winning goal with a good kick-and there hadn't been a Brisbane player closer to goal and in the clear to kick it to). Plenty of commentators and others seemed pretty outraged by what took place, but I guess you know better.😆 Brisbane were quite likely robbed of a premiership-you know it and I know it. I suggest just be happy Colliwobbles got away with a very lucky win. Cheers.
@darrylschultz9395 Yes, I'm surprised that the number of so-called experts that don't seem to understand the rules. Particularly Matthew Richardson & Luke Hodge that started all this nonsense. So tell me Mr Expert, what rule should the umpire have applied in that situation. You know the one, the one that says the umpire can tell a player it's unwise to play on or recall the ball for a free kick if playing on doesn't work out for them. Exactly what number rule is that? Or how about the rule that says they may not have heard the whistle so cut them some slack! & why didn't that rule apply when Brisbane got the 50 mtr penalty earlier. Fair to say a stand call is a lot quieter than a whistle. Watch this, here's a whole panel of experts that don't so much as batter an eye lid when the umpire calls Advantage after Zac Bailey played on. Enjoy! th-cam.com/video/f4894oU7ngw/w-d-xo.htmlsi=N8NGrmlIXTVevVqD
@@tcullen3684 I'd be surprised if there wasn't at least a few of those with decades of experience in footy that know at least as much as you about it. But I wonder if you'll be so tolerant if Collingwood is in next year's Grand Final, and they're 50 metres out and less than a goal behind with a minute to go, when the umpire says take the advantage, despite there being no advantage. Poetic justice I think they would call it.
Yeah, was a RIP SNORTER of a game. Fair dinkum!! Ridgey didge!! I'm wearing all black today because I'm in mourning now that the footy season is over. There's only two seasons . . . Footy Season and Waiting for Footy Season.
You come from a very different culture. The two teams things would not wash here but I get how its different there when you have like two NY teams in things and go.for both. It's just different here. Its a bit like that in English football too. If you come from a little town with no chance of ever being big you go for them AND Arsenal or Liverpool or whoever. If you go for the crows you despise Port etc I think you will get a Brisbane flag but you could have been on the pies.
I'm spewing Collingwood didn't choke like they normally do as I wanted to give THAT song (I love it when Collingwood chokes) a flogging! Oh well, Steady Eddie (McGuire) would've had a fat head and maybe got a root as well as all the feral Collingwood supporters going off like they normally do!

Just to add, Jeremy Howe of Collingwood played out the last quarter with 3 broken ribs and didn't flinch.

break it down Johnny 💪 👍 very cool it worked out as Brisbane Lions vs Collingwood, just for you mate!
It was a great game, the lead changing all game. Tonight another Grand Final was played in sydney. The NRL Rugby league final between the penrith Panthers and The Brisbane Broncos. Just like the AFL Final we had one local team vs a Queensland team and just like Collingwood, the local team won by 2 points. Watch it when you can it was epic. Remember though it is Rugby League not Rugby union. Once you know the rules, you would love it. The ball can only be passed Backwards, they get 6 passes and try to score a Try by getting the ball over the try line, much like NFL but in Rugby the ball must touch the ground to be a valid try. much more of course but it's a start i you are interested in watching it,
Go lions we will be back next year 🦁
It sure was an amazing game! My team won, I am very proud of the boys. Our last Grand Final was 2020, it was our time. On top all year, we deserved that win. My Hubby is from N.Y.C. he is a Yankees fan & a Collingwood fan. He often says that they hate the Yankees fans just like they hate us Collingwood fans, do we care? not one bit. :)
The umpire called advantage because he handballed it after he blew his whistle for the trip and then the bloke he handballed it to kicked it forward instead of stopping.
Edge is the ultimate opportunist. Zac Bailey is better than Edge at being the ultimate opportunist. Nah Edge won the WWE championship in 2006. Yeah, but Bailey has to play in a team of 18. We need state of origin back.

Ive lost my voice i was screaming me guts out...what a game . PIES..
HI Johnny Wow your first AFL season and have enjoyed the ride with you and the Guys that I've met a long the way and been to a few games with. If you do get a chance and drop in a few lines in the discord . Now with Collingwood winning and living in Melbourne you have that saying There Goes The Neighborhood
wrong Team, Magpies are the most followed team in Australia
Collingwood have a huge following but officially Sydney are the club with the largest support base.
@@petermcculloch4933 True i will re phrase- Members - Collingwood (106,470), West Coast Eagles (103,275), and Richmond (101,349) led the 2023 membership tallies with all three clubs surpassing 100,000 members and Collingwood setting a new all-time AFL club record with 106,470 members...Swans 62000 but yes you are correct
You might not hate Collingwood but everyone else does. 😂
Go Pies what a win 🏆
looking good Jonny
No refs in AFL!!!!! umpires.
Twenty years to win a GF isn't that long mate. My team last won in 1998.
Pies were a 6 goal better team, missed way more shots than the Lions. Best team won, would have been a travesty if they didn't.

It’s been a fantastic season and I’m happy that your Lions got there for the grand final mate. And what a great game both teams put on for us to enjoy. I also can’t wait for next season. Port supporter.
Umpires shmumpires 😂😂😂 the Pies deserved this win 'HANDS DOWN' 🤍🖤🤍🖤🤍🖤 TEAM OF STARS 🌟🌟
All teams suffer and benefit from umps decisions... Stop crying and deal with it 😂. 22 to 16 frees in Brissies favour. Great review mate 👍

Looking forward to the knicks season 😈
"Play on advantage" is only called after the advantage is taken. The Brisbane player (Neale) was tripped as he handpassed it & the umpire clearly blew the whistle to pay the free kick. After that, another Brisbane player (Bailey) kicked the ball. That's when the umpire called ,"Advantage". It was Bailey's choice, not the umpires. Just because the kick went to Collingwood & was not Marked by a Brisbane player, that's just too bad. Think about it, if everytime taking Advantage didn't work out, all they had to do is say they didn't hear the whistle, they would just say that, whether they actually heard it or not. Put it this way, if it had been a Collingwood player that kicked the ball after the whistle, then that would've been a 50mtr penalty on top of the free kick. Can't argue you didn't hear the whistle. That works both ways. 100% correct umpiring! TV commentators & former players need to learn the rules, instead of making an issue when there isn't one.
The only reason they'd have played on in that situation if they really had heard the umpire had awarded a free, was if they'd seen a Brisbane player in the clear closer to goal that they could pass it to. There was no such player, so they clearly played on because they were unaware the umpire had awarded a free. The umpire should've recognised this and stopped proceedings.
@darrylschultz9395 Absolute rubbish! It's not the umpires job to second-guess players. They can't read minds or know what a player is thinking or if they have or have not heard the whistle. If it had been a Collingwood player that kicked the ball after the whistle, that would've been a 50 mtr penalty, whether they had heard the whistle or not. The choice to play on in that or any situation is the players choice, not the umpires. It is now & always has been that way. Prove me wrong, show me just one time in the history of the game, a situation where a player decided to play on & because it didn't work out, the umpire recalled it & gave the free kick anyway. Just one. Umpires don't tell players when to play on. They simply call play on after a player has done so.
@tcullen3684 You say it was the player's choice to play on, but such a thing as making a choice is only possible when the player has an awareness a free kick has been awarded. In this instance there was clearly no such awareness-therefore no such thing as choosing what to do next, existed. In the player's mind, he was just doing the only thing available-i.e, continuing to play-and choice didn't come into it. I concede Brisbane still may not have won if the player had heard the whistle, and chosen to take the free kick(as it seems likely they would've done, since they were close enough to kick the winning goal with a good kick-and there hadn't been a Brisbane player closer to goal and in the clear to kick it to). Plenty of commentators and others seemed pretty outraged by what took place, but I guess you know better.😆 Brisbane were quite likely robbed of a premiership-you know it and I know it. I suggest just be happy Colliwobbles got away with a very lucky win. Cheers.
@darrylschultz9395 Yes, I'm surprised that the number of so-called experts that don't seem to understand the rules. Particularly Matthew Richardson & Luke Hodge that started all this nonsense.
So tell me Mr Expert, what rule should the umpire have applied in that situation. You know the one, the one that says the umpire can tell a player it's unwise to play on or recall the ball for a free kick if playing on doesn't work out for them. Exactly what number rule is that? Or how about the rule that says they may not have heard the whistle so cut them some slack! & why didn't that rule apply when Brisbane got the 50 mtr penalty earlier. Fair to say a stand call is a lot quieter than a whistle. Watch this, here's a whole panel of experts that don't so much as batter an eye lid when the umpire calls Advantage after Zac Bailey played on. Enjoy!

@@tcullen3684 I'd be surprised if there wasn't at least a few of those with decades of experience in footy that know at least as much as you about it. But I wonder if you'll be so tolerant if Collingwood is in next year's Grand Final, and they're 50 metres out and less than a goal behind with a minute to go, when the umpire says take the advantage, despite there being no advantage. Poetic justice I think they would call it.
The guy knows what he is talking about
Congratulations on ya first year...ya goofy m8te from Australia
Wasn’t a great grand final for many Australians like me
Mate, you have more credibility to comment on AFL than many a TV expert over here 👍
You have the wrong colours on
Johnny, hope you interview Mason when he heads back to the states. Go woods!
Yeah, was a RIP SNORTER of a game. Fair dinkum!! Ridgey didge!! I'm wearing all black today because I'm in mourning now that the footy season is over. There's only two seasons . . . Footy Season and Waiting for Footy Season.
Sus out both 2005 & 2006 GF
You come from a very different culture. The two teams things would not wash here but I get how its different there when you have like two NY teams in things and go.for both. It's just different here. Its a bit like that in English football too. If you come from a little town with no chance of ever being big you go for them AND Arsenal or Liverpool or whoever. If you go for the crows you despise Port etc I think you will get a Brisbane flag but you could have been on the pies.
Respect dude

Man Cox is American, what you doing wearing Brisbane colours lol
I'm spewing Collingwood didn't choke like they normally do as I wanted to give THAT song (I love it when Collingwood chokes) a flogging! Oh well, Steady Eddie (McGuire) would've had a fat head and maybe got a root as well as all the feral Collingwood supporters going off like they normally do!
