UNLIMITED!

[Mazer Rackham 14,969]

I'm starting to struggle what with our premiership drought extending to 5 entire weeks. But I can recommend watching: (i) the entire match (ii) the third quarter, or (iii) extended highlights of the second half. It's still [censored] good.

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...

Lots of people talking about the Melbourne Cup but they seem to have got mixed up and are talking about horse racing???

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. 😏

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.
