(for the sake of getting to 100)

Am I the only one on here, who feels that 'Bang, Bang, Bang' undersold the occasion, and wished like hell the Channel 7 version had someone else in commentary at the time, rather than JB or Bristle?

    Whilst I’m very much looking forward to next year, 2021 was such an unbelievable year, a part of me doesn’t want it to end.

    read it like     bang......(pause)......bang, bang, bang

    the first won is either for the 3rd goal of for the whole sequence.  then the last 3 bangs are just playing it out for emphasis

    at least that's is how i see it

    I see it as Brayshaw being delirious with amazement at what he was seeing, and became incoherent and unable to articulate his thoughts.

    And while I am at it how does Tony Shaw get a gig on radio with comments like Great Footy....its is bleeding radio

    He is the embodiment of a trend in radio commentating where the lead commentator is babbling on about the play, and then all the commentators in unison go OHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! because of something extraordinary that's happened, and they don't blinking well say what the amazing thing is! Until the moment has passed. Great for the commentators. They're having their post-coital ciggie but leave the rest of us left dangling.

    I like what Hamish says after Maxy’s goal in Round 23:

    ”And just like that… Melbourne are minor premiers. Try and write it. Try and script it. Try and believe it. It’s happened!”

    Cheers for the mental image!

    Just realised maybe I’m the only one having the disturbing mental image here. In my mind they’re all nude. 😬

    And it ain’t pretty

    Things are usually left dangling post-coital activity.

    just to be a pedant (sorry ds)

    strictly speaking we can't claim 100 pages until we clock over to 101 pages

    at the moment we are only at 99.??

  • Quote

    I just had a thought that might put what we're all feeling into a different kind of perspective. How many pages would a regular season game have if it were 1 v 2, we win by 74 points, and there's 3 months till the next game?

    Maybe 25?

    Another 300-400 pages to pass the Hogan & Goodwin threads. Though it might never get there, given we'll all be re-locating to the 2022 post game Premiership thread in 9 months.

    I think the comment by Taylor that Melbourne are drowning in goals, is right up there with bang etc.

    Mind you it may have been a repeat of another time, another game.

    I wasn’t too sure about that comment by BT - wasn’t it the Bulldogs who were drowning? - in Melbourne goals?

    Either way the point was made, we tsunam'd them.

    I think it was pre-planned . JB knew he needed a key phrase for posterity.

    Note that after Trac kicked the first goal in the first 1/4  - JB yells"...Petracca goes BANG..."

    He was warming up and the phrase was already in the back of his mind. 

    Still it was a top call by him after oliver's goal.

    Hamish is a lightweight in this area, but I give him credit for this one.  It was excellent for the event that had just unfolded

    You're technically correct and we all know that's the best type of correct.

    Were you one of those that didn’t celebrate the Millennium on Dec 31st 1999?

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.
