The players who missed Grand Finals through injury + suspension - Sunday Footy Show | Footy on nine 

I remember Cloke in 2002, the next week's footy show Eddie got him on the stage and tried to pled his case. Disgusting that it was allowed to happen, if it was a player from another team it would have never happened.

Matthew Egan suffered a career ending injury in the final home and away round of 2007 after being named in that season's All-Australian team. He probably ended up missing more than just Geelong's 2007 premiership.

Love you paddy 🔴⚪️⚫️

Jack Graham...short memories.

Did they forget Andrew gaffs 8 week suspension

Showing my age I know but in 86 Bernie Evans ( Carl) got one week after getting reported in finals and so missed the GF. At least they lost - it was even worse the following year when Fraser Murphy also got a week and missed the premiership!!

I'm a Swans fan but I'll admit Barry Hall should probably be on this list

ben mglynn, Swans 2012 premiership

How could they not show fabulous Phil Carmen suspension in 1977 to miss 2 grand finals. Probably cost the Maggies the flag.

1951 billy. As a bombers tragic I know sadly that suspension basically cost Essendon a threepeat.🥺🥺

Presti from collingwood put his hand up in 2010, would've been hard

Vidovic/Spider both play we win 97. Only one of them plays i reckon we still get over the line. Anyone wouldve been a 4 goal upgrade on Brett Cook.

1996 John longmire missed the grandy im pretty sure. He was a great player aswell

Brendan Whitecross for hawthorn??

Ben McGlynn 2012

What about GAFF

Dean Rioli in 2000. Broke his collarbone before the finals

1951

Would’ve hurt Leon Davis to not play in the replay but at least he got to play in the first game and was awarded a medal. Is it really that heartbreaking?

Andrew gaff

Doesn't anyone remember fabulous Phil Carmen. Got himself suspended for a crazy elbow to Tucks head when Collingwood had the game in the bag. Got two weeks suspension. Mist the 1977 Grand finale and the Grand finale replay. Cost Collingwood a premiership probably.

Pretty sure Modra missed out in 98 due to being injured again

West Coast Eagles 2018 Grand Final lost Nic nat knee injury and Gaff suspended. same year

Bernie Evans was suspended in 1987 Peter Motley had his life turned upside down earlier that year Steven O'Dwyer was suspended in 1988 Peter Curran was injured in 1988 Greg Dear was injured all season in 1991 David Hart got injured playing in the 1992 WAFL Grand Final, and lost his chance for 1992 Ron McKeown wasn't selected for 1990 Rod Austin was injured in both 81 and 82. Tony Buhagiar played in the 84 Prelim but wasn't selected for the Grand Final Merv Neagle I think was injured and missed 85... Mark Blake was dropped in 2007. Matthew Stokes and Josh Hunt were both injured in 2009 Happens almost every year. That's footy.

Never understood why Bob Murphy didn’t go for Lars surgery on his knee. Would’ve been back before the finals series

Did Brad Sheppard and nic naitanui play soccer in 2018?

If Bob Murphy had not got injured, Footscray would not have won in 2016. He was a drag on the team.

Brodie smith 2017

what about rance

jon coleman was 1952 because geelong won in 1952 and collingwood won in 1953

what about gaff 2018

What about Matty primus...?

Completely missed Andrew Gaffs suspension in 2018

John Coleman suspension was 1951, be quiet Billy lol

Watched this just to make sure Mods was in it.

Simon Prestigiacomo

nathan jones :(

Aliir Aliir 2016

If you are a dirty player and missed the grand final it's a good thing.

THIRD ! ! ! !

Such an uncomfortable presenter . Browlness is the same . Cornes and Brown the same. Too much focus on ex players to be on TV.
