I look at the round 23 game differently now.

The comments from the peanut gallery were 'you've done nothing', 'the cats took their foot off the gas' etc

But the belief the players got from coming back against the odds at a hoodoo ground coupled with the momentum in the second half were simply breathtaking.

The 3 finals games were a juggernaut because of that momentum and belief.

And now we have a flag, the players know that their sacrifices are worth it, their selflessness is the key, there is nothingthey cannot do, there are no barriers to success any more and if they continue to work the next 5 years could be pretty special.

Go Dees

Surely drew some confidence from the 44 point comeback in that game when we were 19 down in the third quarter of the GF.

That and the Brisbane Round 12 game were huge for us, I think.

Bevo reflects of theme for the season... 😬😬😬

 

Why do so many people in the Media talk as if Footscray lost a close Grand Final?They got Thrashed and Murdered, and had absolutely no answer to what was going on around them. 

I find it staggering

Right now I’m watching the match (yet again). [censored] we’re good!

Colleague at work: What have you been doing during lockdown QD?

QD: Nothing much, just catching up with what the Demons have been up too

Colleague: ah yeah . . . you did a good job this year

QD: yeah not bad

Colleague: so what are you do'in on the weekend?

QD: Probably watch the granny again

Colleague: I thought you would have watched it again by now

QD: Yeah, I have

Colleague: so how many times have you watched it?

QD: I try to limit it to once a day

Colleague: Phuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuk

QD: yeah, but generally I fail with that goal on the weekends. 

 


For tonight’s viewing pleasure ima go with round 23, ten minutes left in the 3rd, Clarrie kicks truly ending the Cats’ 9-goal run. Aaaaand unpause.

Just knocked up full rewatch #4, this time with the Perth MMM commentary. 

It's crazy how the game just flips on that Bailey Smith fumble and Harmes gather. From that point on it's 16 goals to 1.

Dennis is a beautiful soul.

I watched the granny and the Rd 23 Geelong game again last weekend. This weekend the prelim gets a re-run. Not sure but i think i'll re-watch the Richmond game as well. 

 

My husband just said to me “maybe we should watch the grand final again”.

God I married well.

Hi @Deebymistake , would you be able to use your lip reading skills to inform me what was said in the conversation between Goody and Burgess during the third quarter. If you click the link below it will take you right to the moment
 

 

This is a classic.  I wondered the same during the game.  When I slowed it down you can see Goody has a wry smile at what Burgess is saying.  Burgess clearly says towards the end  "Maxy said he is hot".  I wouldn't be surprised if this is Burgess relaying the message from Gawn to leave Jackson in the ruck.    Would make sense.  Burgess is probably saying the rotation is due but "Maxy said he is hot".  The body language shows restrained amusement.  Love it.

I just got done watching Round 23. I hadn’t watched it since before the granny and I gotta say it is infinitely more enjoyable to watch when you know the premiership is ours. ❤️💙

Last night I watched the gf in full (again).
Tomorrow night: prelim. 

Then it’s rinse and repeat ‘til Round 1, 2022. 😁

The GF was amazing to be apart of don't get me wrong it was over and done with quiet quickly in the 4th. 

I got chills down the spine watching Gawny slot the winner back in R23.

Im craving for the boys to make it back to the G.F at the G in 2022 for the club, Vic and NSW Dees sake.

It was a drought breaking Premiership first and foremost the Perth public were amazing and put on a fantastic spectacle no doubt.

Unfortunately there were 3 major elements missing from the win from my standpoint, which i won't elaborate on.

These have been mentioned by the players and will no doubt spur on the boys to make it back to back and cement a legacy for this grand old club.

And on the basis of all that, how great and important and sublime was Jake Lever’s kick to Max! The Kick That Won the Flag.

I think ‘Ages’ was talking about the 4th quarter, not the 4th minute. 😁

If you had to sum up his almighty football brain in one incident, that would do it nicely.

We're blessed to have both him and May in the team. Take one out and we probably wouldn't have made it. Take both out and we definitely wouldn't.

Swear to god they held the joint together during the middle of the season.
The forwards weren't doing much but the opposition just couldn't get past May and Lever.

Totally agree. See Sydney, Essendon, even Hawthorn games. 
 

Then Jake produced the offensive kick of the year to Max in round 23. Although maybe Harmes to Fritta tops it. 
 

BTW, has anyone else had the thought that the unarguable turning point of the Grannie, the Harmes steal, was number 4 to number 31 to turn the game, which by jumper number is Norm Smith to Ron Barassi!

Looks like they fixed the little dings in the top lip as well…

Was that the damage from the lid flying off?

This morning I finally found time to sit down and watch some of the footy shows leading up to the grand final and watched the last training session and pressers that was on fox footy. It's funny you are sitting there watching the build up then you think yes we actually did win this. 

Hearing Max talk to Garry just what winning would mean to him and how he just wants it so much. 

The I watched the beginning of On the Couch on the Monday after we won and just seeing Garry back and talking about it and his enjoyment about being involved and then hearing from Goody just made you all happy again.

 Can't believe it was 2 weeks ago.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.
