POSTGAME: GRAND FINAL vs Western Bulldogs

[Demonised 1,338]

I only just realised that our 21.14 (140) GF score was our highest all season. A sensational case of peaking at exactly the right time.

Wouldn’t have been many higher scores by anyone all year I wouldn’t have thought

Our highest scores were the GF, PF, Round 20 and Round 22 shared with round 5.  We scored heavily towards the end of the season.

I watched the Dees V Bullies first round game on the weekend and I just can't believe just how good Clarry is, he just seems unstoppable.  Weed played a fairly innocuous game but he did get his hands on the ball, he just could't hold his marks, if he had he would have had five or six goals.

Dont get me wrong , I love watching all the replays but I need some new blood.

Bring on our 2022 campaign!

And I think that was our biggest gf margin win ever.

Collectors DVD set came yesterday. Really hope to give it a spin tonight with different commentaries.

I just noticed the score when Brayshaw put us back in the lead was 64.

[Demonstone 22,316]

9.10.64, Clint.  Sounds like 1964 when you say it out loud.

Fair enough, I'm nearly at that point but just need a couple more watches then I'm ready to go!

I always have said that I'd be happy with just seeing one flag. But now I have seen one, I want many more.

I’ll pay that.

I was watching the replay the other day, surprise surprise and one thing that stood out was how bad the Bullies outfit was.

Ours look sharp and modern, theirs looks drab and old fashioned, that has to be the worst blue I've ever seen.

One thing I enjoy very much about D'land is the connection between people who got on board in the Norm Smith era, in the dark years, the Northey years, the Daniher years,  and the dark years again, leading up to now. I like that everyone got on at a different station but we're on the same train ride.

GO DEMONS!!!

Been there since the Norm Smith days. I have a very strong heart and constitution to have coped with some of the those years. To some degree 2018 and most certainly 2021 have just about wiped away all memories of the horror years.

Watched this again today.
Good stuff.

Is the host a Melbourne supporter?

Watched it over the weekend also. 
was wondering the same thing. Max gives Bartlett a quiet wack….

I remember there was a demonlander on here stating that he’d accepted he’d never see another flag in his lifetime. Can’t remember who he was. Really hope he’s still alive

I think there were quite a few of us who thought that!

Hmm, my memory isn't great, so I'm not sure whether I actually posted that!

I reckon half of Demonland have said that at some stage.

I posted that my dad said it to me in 1965 when the club sacked Norm Smith and he passed away in 2007 at the age of 87 also my cousin who every year since 1965 told me that this will be our year passed away in February 2021 at the age of 82.
