The Melbourne 'GIFS' thread

Featured Replies

p.sĀ  if it's not too much trouble I'd love a gif of Brayshaws mark and goal at the cheer squad end, followed by the crowd shot of the woman waving her scarf and balling her eyes out. Loved that moment

Please, is it possible to make these non auto-play ???Ā Ā  just appearing in static image, until clicked on?

Ā 

It effects those in remote areas, with slow internet speeds.Ā  And makes the PC slow to load other pages.

There are 10 gifs playing, on one open tab page... slowing the graphics.

lol.

????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

Pray let it be a Melbourne-Collingwood  Grand Final. At least we get the opportunity for revenge for the 1958 Grand Final when they prevented us from winning a record six consecutive Premierships (viz. 1955, 1956, 1957, xxxx, 1959 &1960)!

To beat Collingwood by a point with a Sam Weideman goal kicked after the siren would be a wonderful sight (especially if the cameras were all trained on Eddie McGuire)! ?

Ok dumb question... how do you get the video inĀ the first place? Do you download the entire game from somewhere, or record it digitally somehow?Ā  My game replay is sitting in the IQ but I've no idea how I'd capture that in a video file.Ā 

Yea i have it digitally. Bigfooty melbourne board has a replay archive as an easy way to download the game or im sure it will be on YouTube at some stage.

stopping a gif auto playing does not affect your internet bandwidth

gifs are downloaded in full whether auto played or not

Well it might be slowing the computer when 10 gifs are rolling on one page at the same time?Ā  or something else is?

Can I stop these from auto rolling within my PC ?

I would prefer to just click on them, to watch it once?Ā Ā  rather than a page full, all going like carnival lights.

Just watch every Melbourne player's reaction on that bench. It's a work of art.

JONES: "I can't even believe how good these kids are."
SALEM: "Yass! Wait, don't draw attention to yourself Christian. Keep it cool."
WIEDEMAN: "Eh…it was all right. Better kick it but."
SPARGO: "Lemme at em. Lemme at em. Oh I probably shouldn't run on the field though or they'll wipe our score. Probably just sit down."

funny stuff.Ā  i remember thinking the other night similarĀ things.Ā  They look like us.Ā  Fans.Ā  brilliant.

thanks DC. I just did.

I went to look for answers.?

Ā 

And found these instructions, to sort the background Gifs from auto-playing...

https://au.pcmag.com/browsers-reviews-and/48436/feature/how-to-stop-gifs-from-auto-playing-in-your-browser

Ā 

It was simple.Ā  cheers.

but.....stopping them is not going to solve your perceived problems. .i.e. bandwidth and cpu impactĀ 

i find it ironic that someone who likes visually polluting their posts with strange use of caps, highlighting, mixed fonts, spacing, font size, colour changesĀ and myriad other visual desecrations is upset at auto-playing gifs

but each to their own. if stopping your gifs playing makes you happy then great

Full credit to our resident @david_neitz_is_my_dadĀ  GIFmaster for that one.

Ā 

First request -Ā  Petracca laughing at James Sicily after he was outmarked by Melksham in the last quarter.

Wow. Have a look at Bruest trying to stop Viney with a kicking motion. That is dangerous and should be outlawed. Has the potential to break legs. I am gladĀ he has the worst two finals in living memory (well maybe not as bad as 'neon Leon'

I not bothered by one Gif, but about a whole column of Gifs, all auto-running at the same time.

But that's all fixed now, thanks daisy.

Ā 

And I got the news programs backgroundĀ  advertising auto-run Gifs as well,,, with the same hit.

Its only desecration to the boring, and the bored, DC.

    When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.Ā

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.
