Best “Before and After” ever. EVER.

I look at the top pic (every time I open my pantry door) and I think about how when this was taken these boys didn’t know that in a little over three hours’ time history would be made. None of us knew. We hoped. But none of us knew

And the bottom pic? Words aren’t needed.

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

😂

nah, i celebrated twice, once then, then a year later......all bases covered

ah, and i see we can now celebrate the ton again thanks to wcw

For a break I’m watching one of my favourite three pre covid games. 
2000 QF win v Carlton. 
Green, Bruce and Yze in the last Q. 
 

My other 2 favourites are in 1994 Final when Ox had a day out v Carlton. 
 

And 1988 Prelim at VFL Park when we stopped Carlton going back to back. 
 

Now there’s consequences and penalties for cheating, Carlton have had no success

 

It's weird, the more I hear about it the more I just cannot believe we actually did it. On abc grandstand they just replayed highlights and I got all excited again. We actually did it. 

Realised I hadn’t watched the GF all year…

poured a pint of home brew Czech Dark lager and away we go…😃

My life changed from this moment. 
The Viney crash actually. 

I'm not sure that it is strictly on topic, but here is a list of insults that Dr Smith directed to the robot on Lost in Space ...

Perhaps they could be adapted for use towards some of the AFL commentators? 

And yes ... I've probably lost the plot.

The cheer that went around the MCG when this happened in the replay on the Sunday get-together was as big as any.
Harmeses have a habit of being involved in Grand Final defining moments, and this is no exception.

Yep, it was a collective “here we go” moment. As was the booing of Max’s miss 😄

One ton is roughly equivalent to 2200 pounds or 1000 kg’s. To put this into perspective, the average adult male weighs about 90 kg’s. It would take 11 adult men to equal a ton.

For those wondering about other things that weigh one ton I’ve provided a list below

  • Baby Humpback Whale
  • Walrus
  • Black Rhinoceros
  • Wild Asian Water Buffalo
  • 1979 Volkswagen Beetle
  • 110.6 million feathers
  • 333 Standard Red Bricks
  • 73 Bullion bars of gold
  • 31.2 cubic feet of saltwater
  • Adult Male Moose
  • Saltwater Crocodile
  • 22 cubic feet of sand
  • Great White Shark

Your welcome

Add to this list The Western Bulldogs, still in a TON of pain and hurt😂

The more I watch the replay, the more I appreciate Fritta's roving abilities and uncanny goal sense. He has light speed reflexes and to be fair it was probably good Hannan moved on and Melksham didnt get a guernsey . Frittas skills are in a very elite class.

I think Caleb Daniel is a very good smart player............... However, watch Jake Bowey overtake him and become much, much better!

I’ve always disliked Bradshaw the commentator. But his bang. Bang bang bang! comment I thought was a great bit of spontaneous commentary., until ...

i was watching the Melb vs Geelong replay of their final round clash. Geelong has just kicked 4 goals in a row of which Hawkins kicked the last 3. Hamish McLachlan states that Hawkins had gone “bang, bang, bang” after Hawkins third. 

I’ve gone back to seriously disliking Bradshaw the commentator all over again. 

 I'm sorry to disappoint all who love the Bang Bang Bang thing but he stole it from an NBA Commentator. I do love the moment tho and how it related to the game at the time but Brayshaws best moment on tv was stolen from another commentator.

Mike Breen is the that man, Here are some of his most memorable “Bangs”

Thanks for the education, but stolen, whatever, doesn't compare to the MFC GF "BANG, BANG, BANG" for impact and iconic moment in sport in my eyes. 

Love him or loath him as a comentator in general (personally, I think he's ok), but Brayshaw's call has immortalised him as far as I'm concerned.

It won't even compare to the booing he will get in round 1 at the MCG.

In a valiant attempt to get this to 100 pages by New Year's Day, when did you know we had won the GF?

For me it was that moment in the PF, so far ahead in the 3rd quarter but Gus and Hibbo were madly diving in the Geelong goal square to deny even a point. Then I thought 'they will not let anybody beat them'.

Clarry's goal for me. My head said 24 points was still game on, but in my heart I knew. 

I like Brayshaw and I think his bang thing was awesome and is now iconic. But I think my favourite call of Clarry's goal was on ABC radio. I don't know who the caller was but he said "the demons...they're seeing what paradise must look like." Which just felt completely accurate because in that moment we all left this mortal realm.

I have been enjoying the Ashes but nothing now compares to winning a flag. Footy 22 cant come quick enough.

Same here, Deeves. Even though it’s won and done, the Ashes has been very entertaining. And the AO will no doubt be great to watch/go to. But this year is different. This year the footy season can’t come quick enough. This winning feeling is addictive!

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
