On the flip side it was refeshing listening to our own Daisy Pearce on the ABC's call of the Lions V Dogs last night.  Some great special comments.   I particularly liked one she made after Hipwood missed a fairly elementy set shot:

"Do you think a haircut would help?"

lol Gold - telling it like it is!

Interesting that Hawthorn have also played St Kilda and Essendon the last 2 weeks, and we’ve actually won both games by more than Hawthorn.

And yet the media were raving about both of the Hawks wins, particularly the St KIlda win.

Agreed.  Bar that one game where we had a complete brain fade, if you look at the respective sides played, won Vs lost and the ladder, I think we are going at least as well as Hawthorn.  Yet they keep getting talked up as a strong finals bound contender and us a good chance of missing out again.  I guess it's reasonable from an outsiders perspective when you look at the recient history of the teams over the past 10 years, but hoping we prove them wrong, that we keep improving and they have peaked this year and start dropping off.  Can't stand those Hawthorn f#! $ers, so pussed with the way we lost to them.

At the end of the day, he's not Dwayne Russell.

round em all up, and put in a cage, last man standing. 

none will be left.

 

they'll all devour one another, intellect first.

I bet when the finals come around he will say. I picked them at the start of the year.

He wont tell you he slammed them  after Rd. 4 and never to make the finals.

They are now all experts in the recent history of the MFC. Almost all the commentators, analysts and opinion shapers have made major blues. For example:

• "ANB has been great all year"
• "Hunt is superb by foot"
• "Jones has become a wonderful captain . . . "

And on it goes.

Really enjoy watching Daisy.

Would be interested to see how she would go as the special comments person during play.

Intelligent, informative, and has a delivery far removed from the embarrassing Kellie Underwood.

The majority of supporters always get ahead of themselves and then turn viral when things don't work out the way they think it should.

Love listening to SEN this morning with all the dees talk and supporters ringing up and discussing their emotions about marking the finals. 

Its been awesome to hear other dees supporters and their absolute joy in making the finals. 

It means so much to us more than others realise I thInk.

We all know everyone loves to hate the range rover driving Melbourne supporters, so I was expecting oppo supporters to grumble at us that we're acting like we just won the flag. But so far that hasn't happened. I really think most fans are cognizant of what we've been through. I watched the game one-out with my WC mate and even he said he was as pleased to lose as he's ever been.

Goody said that Viney should be right to go first week of the finals. 

Will take that with a grain of salt and see how it pans out. 

Tme will tell.

Dappa with everyone that has rung in all have mentioned how hard the last 12 years have been. I think the general footy supporters are happy for us due to the rubbish we have endured well at least until we beat their team in the finals!

Yep, i'm like that, so long ago, just got to sink in........

We're still in that 24 hour period of being able to savior the moment. I'm going to enjoy it as much as possible before moving on.

Supporters deserve to enjoy this as much as possible. Who the hell has suffered like us?

We can lap it up all we like. I sure as hell will.

Just so long as the players are done celebrating and are in full on kill mode. The finals are wide open. Win next Sunday, get ourselves an MCG final and literally anything is possible.

Go Dees!

To be fair. David King & Luffy (esp luffy) have been Pro Melbourne all year. Big believers!
