picket fence 18,190 Posted September 14, 2018 Posted September 14, 2018 Eddie was all over Dees in Fox sports coverage, In fact he was gushing in his enthusiasm! Not such a Bad bloke at all!! Anyone else agree!? 2 Quote
Mickey 4,777 Posted September 14, 2018 Posted September 14, 2018 Was trying to get the Dees fan to continue the 'Roosy' chant as well. We're the fairytale so everyone will be on us Quote

SaberFang 7,151 Posted September 14, 2018 Posted September 14, 2018 Watched him really rallying the crowd off camera after the siren, talking to elated supporters and congratulating them. He looked genuinely happy for us. Good on him. 1 1 Quote

bjDee 1,249 Posted September 14, 2018 Posted September 14, 2018 There has to be an agenda. Or money in it. Or a setup - like when he had Trac on the Footy Show before QBD game and gave him a big head. 1 Quote

Allen Jakovich 519 Posted September 14, 2018 Posted September 14, 2018 The guy just loves afl footy that much. Kudos to him. 3 Quote
John Demonic 5,988 Posted September 14, 2018 Posted September 14, 2018 (edited) For all the [censored] the footy show gets from the 'cultured' bogan haters, whenever I've tuned in this year I've been entertained, despite the poor comedic efforts of fevola and Sam and his political grandstanding. It still has its 'footy community' spirit in tact and I think Eddie's enthusiasm goes a long way in building it. Whereas when Ive tuned in to front bar i just feel repelled by the repetitive jokes of mick molloy. The calls to cancel the footy show are ridiculous and have more to do with Sam's senility than anything else. Eddie was great tonight. Edited September 14, 2018 by johndemonic Quote
Gorgoroth 13,220 Posted September 14, 2018 Posted September 14, 2018 Eddie loves the filth first and foremost, but tbh if you ever get a chance to chat to him about footy in general he does have a genuine love of the game (except for Sydney teams ?) 4 Quote

Biffen 12,949 Posted September 14, 2018 Posted September 14, 2018 Eddie won't love Cinderella too much when she turns up to the ball, boots a few blokes in the nuts, does Prince Charming on the dinner table ,tells the king where to go and then downs a magnum of Champagne and belts the ugly sisters with the bottle. 2 1 4 Quote

Lucifers Hero 40,746 Posted September 15, 2018 Posted September 15, 2018 Sorry, can't share this love for Eddie. In 2010 when they made finals he said something like: "if you jump on the Pies bandwagon now, you are not a supporter. We don't need you". Well same to you Eddie. We don't need you on our Demon bandwagon. He will quickly turn tail if we play the Pies in a few weeks. He is a phoney. 3 Quote
BillyBeane 254 Posted September 15, 2018 Posted September 15, 2018 He even had a dig at Dermott about hawthorn - "Oh the hawks haven't won a flag for 3 years, you'll be looking to merge with another club soon" 3 Quote

I really do. He saved this club. Good on Eddie - I’ve pretty well hated him until I watched that footage, now I kind of like him. And thanks for sharing DNIMD - I enjoyed watching that. Made everything feel more real this morning. Let’s bring this ship into port. It will just mean so much. 4 Quote

Thanks. Good on ya Ed. I often stick the boots in to you, but he is a good commentator when The Filth are not there. He knows about passion in the game. The MFC the sleeping Giant has woken 90,000 in successive weeks on OUR home ground Quote
Lucifers Hero 40,746 Posted September 15, 2018 Posted September 15, 2018 Is this a bit of a side swipe to the Dees from Eddie: “It all turned last year in Round 23 against Melbourne...That was the moment it all changed. We got going, backed ourselves in, cleared our heads and away we went..." https://www.foxsports.com.au/afl/collingwoods-2018-resurgence-dates-back-to-round-23-win-over-melbourne-last-year-says-eddie-mcguire/news-story/fadfbe5715e88082e13ddb00d1adbfd2 Really? One game? He has started the mind games in case we meet in the GF! There are two Eddies: 1) Commentator/Showman 2) President of a ghastly club. His 'gushing' and 'enthusiasm' for the dees that Picket refers to was all show. He doesn't 'love' Melbourne any more than any of us 'love' Collingwood. 4 Quote
