Does anyone know where I can find this? Apparently he was quite emotional.

I just love how the guys always mention us Melbourne supporters in interviews, I feel like it's something Goody has really bought to the club is a sense of respect for the clubs history and wanting to write a new and successful chapter that we can be proud of.

Brilliant. He was in tears. And so was I.

And I loved how at the end he thanked them for having him. 

And then before the team sung the song, and they realised they needed mask (which might have been tracc?l he was the one tbst grabbed a bag of them and handed them out.

All class.

 

It’s honestly great to see the players finally love this club like we all do. Us supporters are in good hands with this mob. To think back that a few years ago players wanted out and now we have players with have tears In their eyes because they love this bloody footy club. 
I had tears after the hawthorn game because I looked around and everyone was happy, hugging and smiling. Before that if you looked around people were crying because they didn’t know how long left they had of watching our beloved dees. 
Enjoy every second, be proud!

no matter what happens this year I’m bloody proud because I know we are the right path for glory. It’s coming.

Trac expressed what being part of Melbourne means to me and I suspect all of us right now.  His emotion was clearly genuine.  For years we have copped the jibes, the stereotypes and the piercing jokes. Now it's our turn to give it back.

For those who can remember, Norm Smith's mantra was all about team.  I feel we have got this back in spades.  I just hope we can get there and I think if we can harness that sense of team, we will make it.

Right now, lets be proud to be part of the red and blue and despite any differences we may have on, here let's stick fat

Together, we are strong.

I’m glad he did mention us. 

I know players hurt, and they did hurt basically from 2007 onwards uninterrupted.

But bloody hell, we hurt as well. 186, 148, losing to the Suns by ten goals and being told we got outmuscled by a team of 19 year olds (and Russel Howcroft allegedly nearly starting a riot at the pre match lunch), losing to the Lions when Roosy said we were a team waiting to be beaten (he wasn’t wrong), the St. Kilda game @Nasher mentioned where we lost in the last 30 seconds, the ‘I didn’t see that coming’ round one game of 2013.

I could go on and on. 

I’m delighted Tracc and the boys are keeping us in mind as we’ve copped a lot of shif over a period of 10 years.

Goodwin mentions us all the time in his pressers.

I think the current group get what it’s about. Players and coaches come and go, but the supporters are the ones that are here through all the peaks and troughs. Christian Petracca was in high school when we were getting pummeled by 30 goals in Geelong. Kozi Pickett and Luke Jackson weren’t born yet when Troy Simmonds got shirtfronted by Michael Long and teenage Brad Green got punched in the throat by Dean Wallis while being held by the current Richmond coach.

They don’t have any of those memories. We have all of them. And we place our trust in the group to make positive memories for us, because we have absolutely no power to affect the outcome. We’re totally at their mercy.

The team and coach say they can’t wait to be playing in front of crowds again. If this group goes all the way, they’ll be cemented in our hearts, and they know it. They’re aware of why they’re there. They’re doing it for us.

I wish I’d seen this live, I reckon I would’ve started tearing up myself. Love the bloke so much.

I cried watching it live. I cried watching it when @Lord Nevposted it last night. I cried when I watched it again just before going to sleep. I just watched it again and guess what? Yep, crying again! Happy tears, happy tears.

Thanks Lord Nev that was brilliant Tracc is a real ⭐️.

Very classy interview, credit to Trac

Oh God that got me.

Dare to dream tracc 

Anyone know how i can see this, i am overseas and the permissions wont let me

Outstanding humility from Tracc.

....... and if he can shed tears on National TV, then I don't feel at all uncomfortable about blubbering in the privacy of our lounge room.

Me too. Can someone DL it and PM it to me....?

A prince among footballers, an attitudinal role model, a perfect team man and a natural exemplar of authentic humility. 

Thanks for posting. I was watching on Kayo so missed it.

I also loved he dropped the f bomb under his breath. Gold

What a beautiful mature leader this guy has become. A gentleman and an exceptional player. His interview really got to me. I was already in hysterics when Gawn was lining up for goal, but this interview was next level. 

I think it’s weak of him to show any emotion - but not as weak as it was for him to express his dislike of planking in that training video. Man up! 🤣

(Sorry, couldn’t help myself. Love this video so much)

The most amazing interview I’ve seen. Trac is a real leader now. If that doesn’t inspire you nothing will. 

Great interview.

Many of us have the scars of 50+ years - and there are many - but the players don't neccessarily have that.

I'm reminded of a Jason Taylor interview where he said we wanted to build a team that came through on a journey together and I honestly think we are that side now.

When you look at our drafting we have guys that have come thorugh together in Tracc, Oliver Viney, McDonald, Gawn, Salem, ANB, Harmes. Most of them are great mates but they have also embraced Lever, May Tommo and BBrown

A good mix of experience, 100+ games, young talent and guys who are in it together and understand the sense of history and the hurt of supporters.

Goodwin has been very vocal about the support base and I think they really mean it.

Its an exciting time to be a Dee fan.
