My Child . . . yes, you have indeed sinned. But all graceful 'Landers have mercy. For your penance:

  • $1,000 to the poor box (i.e. North Melbourne charity cake stall fundraising drive in Feb 2022),
  • 100 hours of volunteer work in the Collingwood finance department,
  • Pray once a day for Horethorn's board,
  • Never pray for Carlton, and
  • Watch the 2021 GF replay at least once a week between now and when the AFLW season commences in 2022.

Go in pease Child, your humility and honesty have saved you. Your sins are forgiven.

Amen.

Look, I just can't keep up with the 👍-ing and 😄-ing and occasional 🧡-ing and 🤔-ing I should be doing on this thread. So take them as read.

But I do note the 2000-post milestone approaches. Better still, the 2021 milestone follows shortly thereafter!

Take your marks...

Awww, I’m sure it was only coz she never got the chance to meet you. 😉 

Elle actually did back in 1990; but she was too shy back then so nothing came of it, and there's no way it would have compared to the 2021 premiership.

In having a one month anniversary watching of round 23 onwards this afternoon, before I head out to a local pub.

(with my 5yo who wants to wear a tuxedo 🤣 and we will honour, as he wants to go to a fancy restaurant (its the BHP))...

Every single time I see this person, post Max Gawn's goal against the cats, snapping form the boundary - I just feel he/she encapsulates every Melbourne supporter who drinks...EVERY.SINGLE.TIME

*I'm just going to neck what I have in my hand, get another, kick back and enjoy the show!

Yes! I notice this every time too. The timing is perfect!

I was just reading the 13 Victories Shaping Melbourne's 13th Flag and the 13th contained this,

the Dees piled on 16.4 (100) to the Bulldogs measly 1.1 (7) and ran out 74 point victors

I'm still having difficulty coming to terms with this and get the tingles when I think of the last quarter and a half. I've never seen a quarter and a half as devastating as this before.

That 16.4 happened with 1.5 quarters to go, equivalent to 66.67 points per quarter or 267 points for the match. Let’s not forget this was against the 2nd best team for the year.

That’s how hot we were.

I guess most of us were flag virgins not that long ago. Our elation is no doubt much higher than say a eagles fan who would have experienced "multiple highs" from their success but we still get what many other fans have been getting on a more consistent basis.

A PREMIERSHIP IS JUST BLOODY AWESOME.

There is an old quote that ... virginity is a recurring condition. 

I hope we win a flag again ASAP.

I hope we win so many that we become hunted and despised.

If they’re anything like their players they’re experiencing multiple highs, flag or no flag. 😏

(I am rather old...)

It’s all about the ice… 

Vanilla Ice sings Ice, Ice Baby and for some people Ice (methamphetamine) is their illicit drug of choice. 
And btw Tim, the fact that you aren’t familiar with Vanilla Ice doesn’t mean you’re old. Probs just means you have good taste in music. 😁

EO, you've made me watch replays AGAIN! Oh, the 'pain'...

I've realised he's just arrived at his row with the beer as the ball's being thrown up. So he's sculled it there and then, not even getting to his seat.

Must have missed a few more goals then, returning to the queue...

Every time I go to a friends place, the replay is on and I don't want to be rude so I sit and watch it.

Of course, at home I like to watch the season unfold, so I watch the games we played during the year, aside from the losses, and watch our team get better with every win. It's amazing that Fritter has improved so much that he almost took out the Norm Smith, there are other players that also improved dramatically and I can see why some fell out of the side not to return.

    2024 Player Reviews: #8 Jake Lever

    Date of Birth: 5 March 1996 Height: 195cm Games MFC 2024: 18 Career Total: 178 Goals MFC 2024: 1 Career Total: 5 The Demon’s key defender and backline leader had his share of injuries and niggles throughout the season which prevented him from performing at his peak.

    2024 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver

    Lack of preparation after a problematic preseason prevented Oliver from reaching the high standards set before last year’s hamstring woes. He carried injury right through the back half of the season and was controversially involved in a potential move during the trade period that was ultimately shut down by the club. Date of Birth:  22 July 1997 Height:  189cm Games MFC 2024:  21 Career Total: 183 Goals MFC 2024: 3 Career Total: 54 Brownlow Medal Votes: 5

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    2024 Player Reviews: #5 Christian Petracca

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury. Date of Birth: 4 J

    2024 Player Reviews: #2 Jacob van Rooyen

    Strong marking youngster who plays forward and relief ruck, continued to make significant strides forward in his career path. The Demons have high hopes for van Rooyen as he stakes his claim to become an elite attacking forward. Date of Birth: 16 April 2003 Height: 193cm Games MFC 2024: 21 Career Total: 41 Goals MFC 2024: 30 Career Total: 58 Brownlow Medal Votes: 1

    LIVE AND LET DIE by Meggs

    The Demons’ impressive late season charge to finals will most likely come unstuck this Saturday evening when the Bombers blow up the also-ran Blues in the Ikon Park double-header.   To mangle McCartney, what does it matter to ya? To have any chance to play next week Narrm has got a job to do and needs to do it well.  We’ve got to give the Pie sheilas hell, say live and let die! It’s Indigenous Round for this game and the chance to celebrate and engage with Aboriginal and Torres

    2024 Player Reviews: #32 Tom Sparrow

    Had to shoulder more responsibility as the club’s injury concerns deepened but needs to step up more as he closes in on 100 games. Date of Birth: 31 May 2000 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 21 Career Total: 95 Goals MFC 2024: 6 Career Total: 34 Games CDFC: 1 Goals CDFL: 0

    Date of Birth: 12 November 1999 Height: 197cm Games MFC 2024: 20 Career Total: 82 Goals MFC 2024: 9 Career Total: 28 Brownlow Medal Votes 3 Failed to fulfill the promise of his breakout six goal effort against the Tigers in 2023 and was generally disappointing as a key forward. It remains to be seen whether Simon Goodwin will persevere with him in attack or return him to the backline where he was an important cog in the club’s 2021 premiership success.

    2024 Player Reviews: #22 Blake Howes

    After a bright start to the season, playing mostly in defence, Howes seemed to lose his way in midseason but fought back with some good performances at Casey and finished the year back at AFL level. One to watch in 2024. Date of Birth: 7 March 2003 Height: 191cm Games MFC 2024: 15 Career Total:  15 Goals MFC 2024: 0 Career Total:  0 Games CDFC 2024: 6 Goals CDFC 2024: 0
