Finish the Job…..


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!

I was reading some comments on the MFC website where it was stated that the team was the 2nd youngest fielded on the weekend making the win even more remarkable.

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?

Who sings this?

Thanks for the vid - muchly appreciated.

It’s called Mammoth by a band called Mammoth WVH. I Shazamed it to find that info.

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!

Hmmmm.  Is it just coincidence that jumbo likes this post?

Further, is it true that jumbo's all-time favourite album is Fleetwood Mac's "Tusk"?

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.

I just got a massive delivery of cheese and French champagne as an early birthday present from friends… so that’s me sorted. 
Cheese sweats and stress sweats.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • POSTGAME: Geelong

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

  • GAMEDAY: Geelong

    It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
