[picket fence 16,697]

The last game 1987 At Western oval Robbie starring! 3 majors

Stretch, Willo, Dirty, Yeata, Earl, Ricky Jackson, Dontcha "Lovett" and others all sensational!

I remember when we drafted Jimmy Toumpas.

I was telling my son just last night, that I remember when Ryan Ferguson refused to be traded to Hawthorn in exchange for Brad Sewell. Was I just dreaming that, or was that reality?

Yes. It was reality.

I remember when Brock McLean stole the show and Nathan Carroll took down a monstrous Saint called Fraser Gehrig.

I also remember the following week, the last final we played in when we picked Nick Smith for his first game in 3 years in a loss at Freo.

And yet another question,.. If you weren't at the Western Oval and weren't born, where the hell were you on this balmy day 22 Dee greese Day??

I remember when we drafted Jimmy Toumpas.

And every melbourne supporter listening to the draft, asked why we didn't pick Wines..

Jeff White?

My dad bought me a Melbourne jumper when I was a toddler I was happy . 30 years latter I am not

[dimmy 1,300]

I remember :

• Robbie Flower marking in the Goal Square and setting the scene for our win against Nth Melbourne in the first final
• Clapping him off in the last Qtr after his 5 goals
• Beating Carlton in the last game, the year they won the Premiership (1971 I think)
• Neeta running straught out on the lead and cleaning up the Southern Stand and then bombing it. Jesse will soon be doing that.

Forget about what I remember. The past is the past.

What's sad is that I have forgotten what it feels like to go to a game genuinely confident and EXPECTING to win. Last time was around 2006.

It's nine seasons.

BTW, as it stands, we are the worst performing club of all teams with the exception of the expansion clubs over the past 10 years, and the second worst club over the past 20 years.

Can you believe that? 20! We made six finals series in that time. That's how bad the past 9 seasons have been.

I'm still p'd off we didn't get that priority pick.

I remember when Dawes and Lumumba won a flag

[Curry & Beer 5,444]

I remember 2010 - beating the Swans by 73 and taking the eventual-premiers to a 1-point loss and a draw. 8.5 wins for the year with a list promising bright futures for Scully, Morton, Grimes, Trengove, Frawley, McKenzie, Wonaeamirri, Watts, Jurrah and Benell. We looked to have a team of burgeoning champions setting up for a long period of contending in September. That was 5 years ago.

The only thing this club has is a past.....too bloody sad really.

[Sir Why You Little 36,668]

I still remember Cameron Schwab

Nightmares. What he did to the MFC must come out...aired.

[Rod Grinter Riot Squad 5,654]

I remember when I cared.

[Straight Sets Simon 23,113]

I remember when we beat Geelong in Geelong, thrashed the Bulldogs at MCG, walked all over Richmond and made Gary Ablett and the Suns look second rate.

That feels like years ago.

[La Dee-vina Comedia 16,652]

I remember Greg Parke at Moorabbin taking 16 contested marks in a match. (I may be exaggerating, but I'm pretty sure he took 16 marks and in those days they were basically all contested.)
