dazzledavey36 56,265 Posted August 29, 2021 Posted August 29, 2021 Did anyone see the pre promo that Channel 7 had going? It was mostly around the Norm Smith curse. It was very spine tingling and was a pretty power video. Did anyone see it and can anyone upload on here please? 1 Quote

How long has it been since we won our last premiership - 57 years How old was Norm Smith when he passed away - 57 years Spooky... 5 2 Quote

Interesting as well that Norm Smith coached Barassi, who in turn coached Blight, who then coached Goodwin. It's as if Norm Smith passed his coaching ability down the line and it has finally returned home to Melbourne. 8 3 Quote

dazzledavey36 56,265 Posted August 29, 2021 Author Posted August 29, 2021 Not sure how many follow Cathy Price on instagram. (Brad Greens partner) If you jump on her instgram she's uploaded a video of him in tears watching this exact video. Not only does this mean to the supporters but we forget it means just as much to the past players of the club ❤ 8 1 2 Quote

I was too young to remember the actual day Norm was sacked, but it was still big news as i got older during the 70’s. Imagine if Hawthorn sacked Clarko Mid Season 2016 It was a HUGE Story The MCC Board did it… watch this Edited August 29, 2021 by Sir Why You Little 2 1 Quote
Bang Bang Bang 5,875 Posted August 29, 2021 Posted August 29, 2021 The Channel 7 one is brilliant. Really captures the pain we've all felt as fans over the past 20 years especially. Am I right in saying a few of the fan snippets were from Round 2, 2013 after the 150 point defeat to Essendon? 1 1 Quote
