POSTGAME: Rd 23 vs Geelong

[Pates 9,537]

First off, I’m in shock and I couldn’t be prouder. Secondly, I couldn’t watch Max’s kick, I had to wait for my parents reaction. Thirdly, **** you cats, sucked in!!!!!

I will say this, I think the cats came into that final quarter thinking already ahead to next week and where they might play it. That is their fault, and I bet you the Goody and Max told the players to fight. 

So proud, not going to sleep tonight. We are top of the ****ing ladder, I of course want us to win the premiership but this is proof that we are the best team this year!

Blessed are the Dees, for they can beat anyone from anywhere.

Such an emotional experience, but then I've always loved roller-coasters.

Go Dees!

I wasn't able to watch live, but recorded and am watching now.

We are 44 down with 7 mins left in the 3rd.

I gather it would be worth my while to stick it out?  😎😁

We took the red pill.

And the blue one.

Goody might be Morphius. Which makes Clarry, Neo

I've changed my mind, can we play the GF at the Cattery? Hahahaha.

Actually might not be all that bad an idea if the Cats are not in it.

Nah

G.O.R.N.

[Seraph 1,714]

Clayton Oliver is surely the best midfielder this club has ever had

After getting smashed in the second quarter he absolutely set the standard for us to pull that back in the last quarter

What a superstar

 

[Straight Sets Simon 23,113]

What an incredible round of football.

Capped off by the most incredible Melbourne win.

How am I supposed to sleep now?

[dazzledavey36 48,857]

I'm bloody emotional. 

Take a bow Simon Goodwin. This is absolutely on you in being able to motivate the players to get back into the game.

To our leaders, Max, Lever, Oliver, Petracca were all immense! Was really strong throughout the game that they simply needed to stand up and they did.

Season 2 starts now. By Monday morning my attention turns straight to Brisbane.

Soak it up lads. We're bloody minor premiers since 1964 💙❤

[Rascability 20]

I never doubted them for a second. 

[Bates Mate 3,891]

Everyone has already covered how great the win was, but the deliberate out of bounds was screwed us all night the ones paid against and the ones not paid for

Ho hum, yet another regulation win.  

First time in our long history that we've won a game with a kick after the siren and some form of poetic justice served given how Max missed a similar match-winning chance against Geelong a couple of years ago.

Yep, Karma’s a girl dog! 

[Sir Why You Little 34,560]

I turned it off in the 2nd Quarter 

Wow 😮 i am stunned

Big Max. That’s what Captain’s do

Oliver a machine 

I wait for the replay….

[Spud 274]

Any chance of handballing the Powerball numbers too? You called this at 44 points down! Nostradamus eat you heart out......

[dees189227 10,808]

When lever had the ball I said straight away kick it to max. He was in the perfect position. It was a good kick.

My god the belief this team has is unbelievable. 

[OhMyDees 1,321]

I wrote them off. Turned it off after the 7th goal in a row, was getting MFCSS from the 2018 Eagles Prelim I saw in Perth.

Watched the last 10mins, turned it off at 37seconds when Brayshaw was given deliberate. Got out of bed - punched the couch and checked the scores. Couldn’t understand how Gawn could have goaled. Still in disbelief. 

No one will ever do what we did and go 44 points down at Kardinia Park and win. We’ve seen history today and not just the first minor premiership since 64’. 

Special thanks to Brad Close for the 50m penalty and to big Max for aging my comments about us being put in a spliff. We put the Cats in a spliff. Bring on the Lions!

I'm incredibly grateful for every call that went against us. For we would not have had that ending.

Unbelievable, thank you MFC, what a game. The emotions I and my family feel for this club and even moreso through Covid lockdown you have given us so much.

Monkey off the back, to win the minor premiership in Geelong where the demolition occurred and for our caption to win the game after the siren it was the best script.

Job half done, let's bring the same intensity and string 3 games together like that.

Well done MFC. I love our club!

We can now lay 186 to rest for ever.

Just one curse left. The curse of Norm Smith. 

[ANG13 1,452]

Seriously what a game what a win and what a round of footy. That is easily the best win I can remember. When Clayton Oliver plays like that and kicks goals there are not many players better than him in the competition love him. 

[Tom Dyson 1,492]

Tracc cries, I cry. 

I have never felt more elated, my love for this club knows no bounds. 

[Crompton's the man 635]

Doesn’t some of the Gameday thread make interesting reading?

Clayton Oliver for Premier of Victoria
