Finally got to unpack some boxes in my new office today. Found my miniature Melbourne desk flag and rather than shoving it into a draw, sat it proudly on my desk.

Had half a dozen congratulations afterwards.

Made today much easier even as I sat through a 3 hour management meeting with a deadly flu.

Nothing quite like a win!

I am no doctor, and I dont know how this is possible but as you have stated that you have a deadly flu, it seems to me that you are the first woman to ever personally experience the dreaded man flu. We have been telling you girls all this time how dreadful it is, and finally we now have one victim who can vouch how terrifying it really is.

Calm down. It was a superb win - one of the greatest - but we have a ways to go. If they lose to the Eagles by 10 goals it'll undo a lot of what has been achieved here.

True consistency imo will be the "turning" point.

Exactly right

It is frustrating to know that last week the knives all come out, and this week we have a dynasty, then if we get belted or even lose to a side considered too lowly, the knives will be straight back out again

Loved ANB's interview after the game, spoke really well for a kid. He said after last week he was focusing on his running patterns which I thought was quite evident - the goal he kicked where Watts played on then stopped was a great example.

Watching the replay of the game again, high as [censored] on cold tablets- and this game keeps getting better!

Jetta was underrated in this match. Amazing performance on that weasel Johnson who always kills us, and some excellent decision making. Back to form.

Edit: Billy Stretch looks about 12 years old. I feel old.

Any way to watch the replay other than the afl.com smart replay?

If you have Firefox, download the 'Video DownloadHelper' addon, which you can use to take the URL of the videos out of the Smart Replay website and play them full screen on your TV (avoiding that pathetic small box thing they give you on the Smart Replay website).

AFL TV on BigPond Video typically has the game available for viewing for about a week or so.

If it works the same way as mine, start the second quarter video by selecting a goal/behind/anything anywhere in the quarter. Then the URL comes up, and you just need to change the number at the end of the URL to '0' to make it go back to the start.

Digital subscription add on to your MFC membership is about $70. Goes to the club and you get to watch pretty much any game live (even non-MFC games) and all games after a day or so.

Really happy with this purchase I have to say. Don't know if still available.

Good for the club too as it is AFL media that has no cost to the club and provides pure profit from what I can see.

Yep this is how I rewatch all our wins on Chrome, grab the video downloader, click on a goal in each quarter in Smart replay, grab the URL and have it in no time!

The last few days I've noticed more red and blue paraphernalia on the train and around the city than I have seen in the previous 5 years put together. It's great to see!!

More than several times the commentators were saying Johnson was going to bust out and make the game his own. Never happened.

I like watching AFL on my 110" screen not a tablet.

Tablets are great. I can sit outside in the sunshine. Big telly's are Ok and I have one but I save about a $1000 a year without Foxtel just to watch the footy.

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
