..we'd be up there with Carlton and Essendon in numbers of flags

We have 12 Premierships. Essendon & Carlton have 16 each.

Flower was at the end of his tether after '87. He went out in good form for me, I would of hate to see him struggle the following year.

Agree with injuries to the likes of Lyon, Ox and Stinga. But it's all a "what if..."

 

that blind turn is amazing. i could just keep watching and watching.

as RR said, it is a testament to how much he got out of himself even after the injuries. but he could have been anything without them

all i can say is WOW! that was the first time i have seen footage of him back then! the only ones i saw was from hotter then hell to the 2002 video. but from 1998 to 2002 i only got too see him play. what a superstar he could have been!! why are footy gods soo cruel to us...?

 

Off the top of my head we had guys like Schwarz, Lyon, Tingay, G Lovett, Prymke and Charles cursed with injuries around that time. Who else?

Good to see Sean Charles & Stinga in that side. We had some real Talent back then.

I cried when the ox did the first knee.

'95 we should have challenged.

Ox was an awesome young talent when he first came to the club. Who knows what he could have been if not for those injuries.

His knee injuries have scarred me as a Melbourne supporter. Ever since Schwarter, every time a fresh new talent comes on the scene, I find myself with this worry about them doing a knee.

Its just all a part of my Mebourne supporter neurosis.

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
