Funny thing is LeBron is smoking a Cohiba (not sure if they can get Cuban in USA or it’s Dominican) and gussy has the green band so prob a Romeo y Juliet from a local shop and possibly stale 😂

    Now that I've managed to stop getting teary every time I watch the replays of that second half, I think I'm rational enough to post something. What an amazingly emotional night watching our team demolish the dogs. I can now get on with my life without mfcss plaguing my footy experience. I'm officially free of this insidious syndrome. The world will be a better place and the shadows of 57 years will no longer darken my days. Sounds dramatic, but that's how significant this victory is to me.

    GO DEES!

    Sure it has been said by others, but I can't stop watching the final 60 secs of the 3rd quarter - arguably the greatest 60 seconds in our club's history

    It’s the best minute in our clubs history for at least 60 years, and possibly ever. I’m going to watch it whenever I need to believe that the world is still a magical place.

    When Clarry kicked his goal I like to think he pointed right at me and told me to calm the [censored] down. He’s got this.

    Update possible UFO sighting? Just glimpsed McQueen’s machine parambulating around roundabout in front of Scarborough’s Rendezvous Grand. Must be on autopilot!

    I could only watch the first 5 minutes; I checked the half time score, noted we'd stuffed up by kicking so many points and went to Demonland to catch some observations. I noted that yours was full of optimism. Dunno if you was takin the pee, but when I watched the replay today, I also felt that at half time the lads had stemmed the flow and were on the way back. Your prediction was spot on: kudos.

    I was still thinking we were in it against the Cats at 44 points down.

    Its scary to think that as a group they have more improvements to make.

    Next year they will be a force.

    Last bit of merchandise I bought, beyond a cap or Tshirt, was the Woewodin Brownlow commemorative Port in 2000

    Never drank it. Lost it in a bet after a Collingwood game. 
     

    Ill be getting some more I think. GrandFinal knife set looks a bit threatening mind you!

    Although if you look at both lists it's hard to find a player who would do that kind of thing.

     

    Also I had a look at the Bulldogs supporter site. They are gutted but gracious.

    Yeah, I always imagined myself acting like a complete tool towards the opposition upon winning the cup but they really make it hard don't they?

    Would love a premiership win against the Bombers so I can really let loose.

    Would love to one day see the Saints jag one.

    Would love even more to maul Essedun, Collingwood or the Hawks in the big one.

    It’s been a long time living with this low grade football related anxiety. When I knew the game was done, I didn’t yell, scream or cry, as was my expectation. I felt a sense of relief, a lifting of the tension that had been quietly present over many years. The screaming came as I saw Kossie burst onto the pitch, as Tmac converted, to join the boys already bursting with elation. The tears and laughter came as the celebrations of old and new, history and present burst across the screen. Thank you for sharing your journey, let’s hope it’s not the last time we experience those feelings again.

    I just finished listening to the SEN call and Whateley's commentary as the siren sounded and the celebrations began had me sobbing. "At the final bell"...can't be a coincidence. It appears he's familiar with our second verse

    Didn't want to take away from the result at the time, but personally need to give a huge thank you to @Dante. The extra priority tickets allowed me to take my parents with me to the game. And I'm so glad my mum was there for when I started crying. Thank you so much, mate.

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      A month is a long time in AFL football. The proof of this is in the current state of the two teams contesting against each other early this Saturday afternoon at the MCG. It’s hard to fathom that when Melbourne and Fremantle kicked off the 2025 season, the former looked like being a major player in this year’s competition after it came close to beating one of the favourites in the GWS Giants while the latter was smashed by Geelong to the tune of 78 points and looked like rubbish. Fast forward to today and the Demons are low on confidence and appear panic stricken as their winless streak heads towards an even half dozen and pressure mounts on the coach and team leadership.  Meanwhile, the Dockers have recovered their composure and now sit in the top eight. They are definitely on the up and up and look most likely winners this weekend against a team which they have recently dominated and which struggles to find enough passages to the goals to trouble the scorers. And with that, Fremantle will head to the MCG, feeling very good about itself after demolishing Richmond in the Barossa Valley with Josh Treacy coming off a six goal haul and facing up to a Melbourne defence already without Jake Lever and a shaky Steven May needing to pass a fitness test just to make it onto the field of play.

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.
