Grand final baby - Our Parradise

[Ironbark]

Still can't process

Too amazing

So many wonderful narratives

The crowd was beautiful, both as a unit and as individuals passing through each other and interacting all night

So happy my kids were there to experience that

So happy for the whole club

So happy for the faithful who rode the dark times, this is even sweeter for us than most realise

Parramatta is officially the southern end of the coast. Blue and yellow everywhere

2 for 2 for me since moved to the coast. Both amazing. Shame it’s been a difficult 10 yrs for both club and me personally between them but that makes it sweeter. Both me and club now back to our best.

I thought we were in all sorts of trouble in the first 15 of 2nd half and couldn’t get out of our end. Then on comes the Faz and turned it back our way and won us the match. Great sub by Monty stuck to his script like he had all year. Unlike Rado who panicked and changed his starting team. Some might say we had them at the team sheet.

Fantastic night and how many people where on the freeway home. So busy haha

What an unbelievable night, never in my wildest dreams could I have predicted that we would ever win a GF 6-1, especially against the might of the City $$$.

Full credit to all of the Mariners fans, particularly the ones on this forum. We more than most understand the pain of the past, making this so much sweeter! Full credit to Shaun, Monty the whole CCM staff and even Staj for rebuilding us from the rubble of 2015-2018.

Proud to be a Coastie, proud to be a Mariners fan!

Agree - if they had equalised in the 2nd half I think we were done. They came out firing after HT. However, we kept our shape, waited until they made a mistake (suck shit scummer) and the rest is history.

Where did you watch it, the replay on P- is just the game and no other footage. Looked like an all access episode was being made.

Youtube has a 2 hours plus version. Maybe there?

You are hereby forbidden to leave unless attending grand finals.

You are clearly a Talisman and must be protected.

Agree it was a successful GF. The APL were very lucky a NSW team made it though. They aren’t out of the woods yet with two more to go.

Fiiiiiiiiine we’ll do a three-peat ?

 

[Ancient Mariner]

Absolutely brilliant. Love it.

 

[greenlig]

This is f**king great

"It's a dream evening to be a Mariners fan" - Simon Hill. Got that right!

Shout out to Beni. He was heavily involved in three of the GF goals. And his was a peach thanks to that sublime pass from Sammy.

 

[booney]

Agree Beni had a superb match.The very best Beni was on display last night.

He is a nightmare to play against and he does a mountain of work defensively. My gosh he has blossomed from the bambi on ice impressions in his first few games.
A very very crucial cog in the wheel.

Brilliant, someone has put a bit of work into this.
