Hi all! 

What a season its been so far! In the lead to our first final, here's a cheeky retrospective of Melbourne's 2021 AFL Season to date that I've just finished clipping together.

Enjoy!

Feel free to share any other retrospective/pump up/hype videos that you come across here.

There is a line Winston Wolf uses in Pulp Fiction as he, Jules and Vinnie are close to cleaning up the dead body in the suburban house, but not quite over the line.

I will refrain from using it because of how coarse it was, and that it wouldn’t apply to female members of the board.

However, the sentiment he expressed is one I feel comfortable expressing.

Can confirm that the video does its job and I am appropriately pumped for tomorrow night! 

Good choice of tune as well!

Awesome vid! I’ve watched it several times over. I’m probs in the minority but whilst the lyrics are totally fitting, I personally  don’t like the song. But you can’t please everyone, right?

Thanks to you (and everyone so far) for the feedback!

Song is called Mammoth by a band called Mammoth WVH which is fronted by Eddie Van Halen's son. Having listened to their album, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree!

The year is 1988. We scraped into the finals, beat WCE by a bee's proverbial, then comfortably won our way to the GF. Who's there waiting for us? One of the great teams of the era. The powerful Hawks. Carlton had upset them the year before ... maybe this year an upset is on the cards?

No such luck. They drummed us into the ground and kept drumming. Game over at 1/4 time. Disaster.

The year is 2000. Nice high finish on the ladder ... no scraping in this time. The historic comeback against Carlton, who really should have had no problem dispatching us comfortably. On to the grand final. Who's there waiting for us? One of the great teams of the era. The powerful Bombers.  Dogs beat them in a freakish upset near season's end. Maybe we can too?

No such luck. EFC then proceeded to take us apart the same way they'd done to sides all year.  Game over at 1/4 time. Disaster.

 

 

Each time it felt like boys versus men. And we suffered the likely outcome.

 

 

The year is 2021. The Mighty MFC is the best team for the H/A season, having beaten all the top sides.

This time it's different. This time we're in the box seat. Our team is settled, our style is solid, our boys are confident. We have genuine stars on every line.

This is the year.

I love this, Mazer. Makes me wish our match was tonight!

Great summation.

I'm here to believe as well, after waiting  57 years.

Anyone else feel ready to run through a brick wall or it’s it just me?

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t
