“I had a nice little moment in front of the Collingwood cheer squad when the siren went at the end of the game...” :cool:

How sweet that moment must have been.

Yes ok Good for Jack but let's not forget that Watts was principally responsible for us being 28 points down in the first half !!!!

Either brilliant and supernaturally subtle irony ... or you're about 3 whipping-boys behind the rest of us.

I choose the former.

The real "ME"?  Or, the real Barrie Vagg?  (Hard to believe, but I really aint he!  -- Just loved hearing him kick goals as I sat in front of the Radiogram on many a cold Winter's arvo in wind blown Sale back in the day...)

"Old"??  Nah!  I prefer the term "Classic"!!  LOL

Our Radiogram was a "His Master's Voice (HMV)".  Classic, ornate timber cabinet.  Was a gem!

Another one... Watts in particular looked like he was really waiting his full 30 seconds when having shots on goal. I've always wondered why no player/team absolutely waits the full 30 seconds to begin the goal kicking run up. Especially with the gut busting running now days.

Someone mentioned it earlier but I didn't actually catch on to it, when did they start running a countdown clock at the game? I've always thought the theatre of not knowing how long is left when you're at the game is one of the things that makes our game unique. On the broadcast is different but is the countdown at the venue a permanent fixture?

Sorry if this one has already been posted, but Jack's matchwinner with the 3AW commentary:

 

 

So much better than Hamish's "Oscar-Elliot" and "Watts, kick, goal". 

Seven are really pushing him but I'm simply not a fan. Hell I'd even take BT over him.

Maybe they are referring to the shot clock?  I think they do have a countdown clock along the electronic fence but only goes down to 2 mins but I didn't take my eyes off the footy on Monday so can't be sure

Credit where credit is due, that would have taken ages to make using a Pentium 3 and dial-up.

It was done with Clay figurines and stop motion photography you luddite.

That is one of the funniest thing's I have ever seen! Of the ones they highlighted I would say 20-30% of them they'd have legitimate causes to argue, the rest you wonder whether they even know the rules! 

In fact by highlighting those argued decisions it has only proven how ignorant they are! Are they going to do the same thing the next match they get a good run of decisions? When we lost to the Roos it was one of the most one sided umpiring displays I've seen, I was furious but I'd say close to everyone on here recognised that while they're a factor it's ultimately up to the players to do their job. The one passage of play that was of importance in the context of the game was the push by ANB and potential HTB following up.

Apart from that they are bloody sooks.

    DERAILMENT by KC from Casey

    It wasn’t quite a trainwreck although at times, it sure looked like one, so I’ll settle for “derailment”.  The trip to Brighton Homes Arena in Springfield outside the back of Brisbane might not exactly be the same place where Homer Simpson’s family resides but, if you listened closely to the utterances of the Casey Demons fans both at the ground or watching via livestream, you could hear lots of groaning and plenty of expressions of “D'oh!” reverberating in the background, particular

    TEN YEARS AFTER by Whispering Jack

    Things have changed in the more than ten years since the West Coast Eagles decimated Melbourne by 93 points on the MCG early in the 2014 season. The two sides had not met at the home of football in the interim until yesterday when Melbourne won by a comfortable 54 points to remain in contention for this year’s finals series. Back in those days, the Demons were in the midst of their Great Depression but they have since tasted premiership glory and experienced a long enough period among

    PREGAME: Rd 18 vs Essendon

    The Demons are back at the MCG once again and will once again be fighting for a spot in the Top 8 as they come face to face with Bombers on Saturday night. Who comes in and who goes out?

    VOTES: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    Captain Max Gawn has a considerable lead over the injured reigning champion Christian Petracca in the Demonland Player of the Year Award. Steven May, Jack Viney & Alex Neal-Bullen, make up the Top 5. Your votes for the win against the Eagles. 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.

    POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    The Demons are back in the hunt for finals after a clinical victory over the West Coast Eagles at the MCG which was sealed after bursting out of the blocks with a seven goal to one first quarter.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well
