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.

  • NON-MFC: Round 07

    Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

  • PREGAME: Richmond

    The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

    A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
