The 4 from 4 club - be proud

Posted

Who's made it to all 4 games so far.

This thread isn't about bagging people who haven't, we've all got reasons we can't attend every game. But for those who have well done. We deserved the last quarter.

Who sat through the debacle that was Port and followed it up with the shambles that was the Essendon game.

The Essendon game I had neutral supporters wearing Richmond jumpers hanging it on all our players.

The West Coast game I had a lady getting excited down stairs every time Le Cras touched the ball, it killed me.

Even this game seeing neutral supporters and smart ass teenage brats in their brand new first time worn GWS jumpers was killing me.

We have to stay strong. The pain will continue for most of this year but for 30 minutes yesterday and the time that followed we were free!

 

living in the otways does make it hard to get to all games , the wife is so rude she wont milk cows all weekend ,but the right to brag after a win is there for all. made the trip into town to pick up paper and talk about my team and my weekend away was thrilling to say the least. thanks for going to all games and keeping the flag flying for us 7 game people.dont worry about the smallminded people they cant hurt us and cant take away our passion. remember 2/3 after this week

 

I've made them all, but think I'll excuse myself from the Gabba trip this week.


Well done to you all. After a 50th birthday party that ended sometime after 6am i had to bail from Yesterday and listen to MMM.

I did turn it off in disgust during the 3rd Quarter but it was back on for the avalanche.

I was happy for MN. He must take that running attitude to the Gabba.

We can win.

That was no lady.

And yes, I'm 4 from 4. I never considered not going.

3/4. Had to work during the WC game although was planning on going after half time. I turned around and went back to work when I saw the score in the third!

Yesterday's win, albeit against GWS, was one to savour!


I missed the Essendon game only because I had had surgery two days early, was in plaster and under doctors instruction not to attend I plan on attending the away games against GWS, Adelaide and the Suns. Its a good excuse for a weekend away.

I've made all three.

Only stayed to the end in two, though: Port and GWS.

And who wants to admit to being at the game on Sunday and leaving at three-quarter time?

(Serves you right).

Well, after a fashion I did. I don't live in Oz, but religiously get up at ungodly hours to watch the Dees (5 a.m. on Sunday) on streaming. At 3/4 time, I just felt I needed to be in a calm place, and went out and walked the dog, only checking the score later. I've since watched the last quarter twice if that makes up for it ...

I went to the first three but couldn't get there Sunday.

Instead I watched the game from the local over a few pots and parma.

At three quarter time I was just about to leave when the girl behind the bar brought me out another drink. I said "Thanks but I am fine, I am actually out of dosh for the day" to which her response was, "You looked like you're about to cry at three quarter time, so we (the bar staff) thought we would shout you one."

Anyway's, didn't jag her number but we did jag a win.

I'll take that

I propose you stay at the pub for remaining games haha. Clearly its the good luck charm! Look at the positives by the end of the season you are bound to have had a few more drinks on the house and you might just get that number!

Let's hope it's us that are getting excited every time Le Cras touches the ball next year... assuming we make a play for him.

i've been to all 4 so far. i've stuck in till the end in each of the floggings, as much as it pained me to. Won't be going to many for the rest of the year though as i only have a 5 game country membership, and it will cost too much to go down for many more games.

Young dee, on your profile you have Paul Johnson listed as one of your favourite players.... I mean really?

I'm in the 4 from 4, but I only made it to the 2nd half of the West coast game, in fact to be accurate, 20mins into the 3rd quarter I got there having sprinted from work, and yes I knew the score. I take the word supporter very literally and had a great time this weekend, (mainly in the 4th quarter although I thought the 1st was fun too), I'll be watching on tv next week and will be back at the G for the Carlton game, so when the tide turns I can say I was there when we were terrible.

3/4, was throwing up during the West Coast game, and it wasn't from the state of the football.

3/4 I was sick for the Bombers game, same thing by the sound of it.

  • PREVIEW: West Coast

    Saturday’s election night game in Perth between the West Coast Eagles and Melbourne represents 18th vs 15th which makes it a tough decision as to which party to favour. The Eagles have yet to break the ice under their new coach in Andrew McQualter who is the second understudy in a row to confront Demon Coach Simon Goodwin who was also winless until a fortnight ago. On that basis, many punters might be considering to go with the donkey vote but I’ve been assigned with the task of helping readers to come to a considered opinion on this matter of vital importance across the nation. It was almost a year ago that I wrote a preview here of the Demons’ away game against the Eagles (under the name William from Waalitj because it was Indigenous Round).  I issued a warning that it was a danger game, based on my local knowledge that the home team were no longer easybeats and that they possessed a wunderkind generational player in Harley Reid who was capable of producing stellar performances playing among men a decade and more older than he.  At the time, the Eagles already had two wins off the back of a couple of the young man’s masterclasses and they had recently given the Bombers a scare straight after their Anzac Day blockbuster draw against the then reigning premiers.

  • PREGAME: West Coast

    The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • REPORT: Richmond

    The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

  • CASEY: Richmond

    The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.
