Getting Married....With Special Guest Luke Tapscott!

Featured Replies

Posted

Just wanted to share my experience...

I just got married on Saturday night and my wife planned a surprise visit from Luke Tapscott!!!! hahahaha

He came in looking like an absolute picture of health, muscles were just incredibly massive...I don't know if you guys have seen him up close recently but he is so so massive it isn't funny...

He came in taking the microphone saying that your wife mentioned how much of a passionate supporter you were and wished me all the best in life and hopefully they could win a few games for us next season! Handed me a framed squad photo signed by the team and got some photos with him and had a good chat to him one on one and with all the family who are melbourne supporters..

Incredibly nice bloke...

He mentioned that the mature age blokes have been brought in to pile pressure onto players that have been getting "comfortable" for a number of seasons...And he said that Neeld has sorted a lot of blokes out.....And i asked him who and he just said "a lot of blokes" again....

He said the training was incredibly tough but the guys are responding very well to it..

Just thought i would share some info with you guys..

 

Congratulations on your marriage TTT and what a good story ! Tappy is 200 game player I reckon . I know he could play up the ground but I like the idea of the "Menacing" half back flanker !

Pretty good effort all round by your wife and LT/club with the framed and signed team photo. Congratulations !

He doesn't need to refer or single out the individuals when referring to getting "comfortable". Fair to say most D'landers have a fair idea when "a number of seasons" is mentioned.

 

Congratulations dude! Oh, and the wedding is a good thing too...

Seriously though, that is a really awesome bit of promotional work by LT and the club, and no doubt made a special day even better for you and your family.

Also really good to hear the take on the mature aged recruits. As H_T says, we really don't need him to name names. There has been plenty of speculation on these boards about certain players who seem to coast through the season and get picked anyway. That little comment may be the most significant insight into Neeld's plans for the team that we've had so far. Nobody is safe and everyone has to work hard to earn a spot in the side.


Please don't tell us about the honeymoon, especially if Tapscott is involved.

Congrats on the wedding and may you have lots of new Dees members.

 

Congrats, and thanks for the great insight into what's going on at the club.

I would imagine that with the recruits that have been brought in, there'll be a few players looking over their shoulders.

Congratulations and you must be loving your wife, you seem to have caught a biggie!!

Well done TTT in the wedding, I had the pleasure of meeting tappy In koh samui in October, as well as trenners n big maxy, absolute ripper blokes, I walked up and said g'day and that I was from Melbourne and the young fellas pretty much took me under the wing all introducing themselves (like I didn't know who they were) and then the beers and stupid dances followed!! Trenners is a bloody mature kid he didn't even look like mucking up while over there, don't know if I helped them with there preseason tho.... Tappy is in rehab and maxy is done for the year.... Even so had to be up there as one of the better nights of my life !!

Great story mate and the new Mrs sounds ace. Congratulations.

  • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

    Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
