A night for the ages

Featured Replies

Was an amazing night... I really can't put into words how incredible it was, and it is something I will never ever forget. I'm only a young bloke, so it was an real eye-opener for me... a classy night out for me prior to last night was a visit to the local pub for a chicken parma. :lol:

The part's that stood out the most for me was Paul Gardner's speech... impressed me a lot and kicked the night off well (I didn't really rate him prior to the night). Garry Lyon's speech was from the heart... the way he got all the current players to stand up at their seats, so as everyone could see them, and then tell them how EVERYONE is 100% behind them during this tough time was really inspiring and should serve as good motivation for them tomorrow and beyond.

The video package for the players who died at war was incredible... I'll admit, I had the lump in the throat and tears building up. Having never been to an ANZAC match or parade before, it was something I will never forget. That video and the last post is the memory from the night that will stick with me the most I think.

Lest We Forget

If our future is half as good as our past, then we are in for a great time ahead.

Long live the MFC and it's heroes. PAST, PRESENT & FUTURE!!

I didn't quite get that the Ox felt happy to be there.

The Ox said today on radio it was the best footy function he had ever attended. I say he was happy to be there.

 

I say i was there and didn't feel it much from him. Maybe he did feel it, but he didn't exactly express that to the crowd. Maybe he just didn't want to.

First time back at the club since retirement and has been six years too long - D Schwarz. Maybe that is just the way David expresses his feelings. I have no doubt though that he loves the club


Don't get me wrong, i hope he loves the club and i hope to see a lot more of him.

Just that when he was on stage, i thought he'd say something of his own time, but only interviewed Robbie Flower.

Then about half hour later i went into the foyeur and he was interviewing Neita for TV.

All previous posts have pretty much summed the night up. What struck me was how friendly everyone was, current/past players were bombarded with autograph and photo requests (plenty from me) and all were done in a generous fashion. I sat near Brent Maloney and he had much pride when standing along with the current playing group and an article in Tuesdays Herald Sun covered this well. As a WA based supporter/member it was a rare moment to be involved with the club i follow with great passion and to be amongst the people I admire and respect was one of those genuine life highlight experience's.
