You are not alone. I still wake some mornings and wonder if it really happened.ย

Please, thereโ€™s no need to panic. This is not as bad as it looks. At least, thatโ€™s what the medicos will tell Tracc, similar to how they didnโ€™t tell Maysie how bad his hammy tear was. So, rather than โ€œdecapitatedโ€ letโ€™s say heโ€™s โ€œincapacitated.โ€ Obviously his preseason will look a little different but from all accounts he should be cherry ripe by Rd 1 of season 2022.ย

You know at the start of every season how Ch7/Fox do promo footage of each captain in a TV studio holding the cup, looking at the cup, ect? I'd always think "Why bother doing it with the Dees, it will never happen, waste of time"..... well, they better schedule Gawny to be first up next year before any other captains get their grubby mitts on OUR cup. It's the little things that make a premiership so great!!!

It was a great night. Was one of my uncles last happy moments. So glad he got to see this before he passed away. I guess it must have been fate

I never enjoyed seeing a our captains over the years posing with a cup they never looked like getting near either.
You gotta earn that right IMO.

Coincidentally WCW I watched the PF as a warm up prior to watching that Magical last 40 minutes of the GF again and Maxy was right out of the tree in the PF. It was the perfect Captains game by some margin whereas the GF everyone was out of the tree at the same time.

The goal kicking heroics were a sight to behold, but I think most of all I loved that run-down tackle on the boundary. That's captain stuff, especially from a ruck.

I watched a few quarters of it again the other day.ย  Your right, it's hard to get that same rush from it, but worth watching from the perspective of being impressed about just how under control we had the game for most of the time and what a complete and dominant finals series it was that we played.ย  Couldn't have scripted our finals series better if I tried.ย 

Over all, we were just so impressive and dominant that we basically crushed the life out of every side we played, even though a few of them challenged and pushes us for parts of each respective game.ย  Also evident what awsome finals series both Freitch and Patracca had, probably closely followed by Oliver and Gawn.ย  Fritta kicked bags of 4, 2 & 6, including some crucial momentum shifting ones and similarly, Trac was dominant out of the middle and also kicked a couple of crucial goals against the Lions to seal the game.

Do people find the more they watch it the more you just can't believe that we actually did it and won a premiership?ย 

Being a footy tragic as I am and total demon itโ€™s not hard too say that the forty odd minutes of the granny we dominated WAS the best team football I HAVE EVER SEEN, bias, totally, and the scary thing about that is the team is so young. We have set a new bench mark that only we can match, at the moment! Others teams are surely gunna come for us but when we switch too beast (Demons)mode, I havenโ€™t seen anything from other teams that will match us for a full game, sure they may get a run on, like the dogs did, but as Daisy said we donโ€™t have an off switch until itโ€™s game ova. Iโ€™m certainly not one to get ahead of myself, one game at a time, and Iโ€™m finding it very hard that game ainโ€™t this week. ๐Ÿ”ด๐Ÿ”ต๐ŸŸฅ๐ŸŸฆ

Charlie Cameron moderated the loss for Brisbane somewhat with his superb solo effort of 5 goals. Still they never had a realistic chance of overtaking us.ย

Another poster said we were on the lucky side to win!!! ย Another 3rd quarter goal and we would have been in trouble!!

I felt that we were about a 6/8 goal better side than the Lions but didn't convert quite as well as in the PF and GF.

The "Charlie " factor was large and Hibbo May well have been a better choice than Joel Smith to mind him.ย 

But pleasing ย for Joel he has improved IMO and should get more games next season in a 8/10 man defensive unit UNLESS he gets injured againย 

I just looked at Tom McDonald record he has played 193 games for the MFC and Bowey has played 7 Games the irony is that Tom is 7 short of 200 whilst Bowey 193 games short of 200 but both can say they played in a premiership.

I was reminded that when the channel 9 footy show was hosted by Gary Lyon he privately stated that he envyed players like Dermott Brereton who played in 5 premiership but Lyon was 3 times AA and would have given them all up for just 1 premiership.

How do you think Dangerfield feels, he's achieved everything in footy except a flag & must look at bowey & sparrow & shake his head. It gives me a laugh that they are premiership players & danger isn't.

LOL at the NAB mini legends ad. with Dangerfield saying that being picked for mini legend is โ€œbigger than medals, bigger than money, bigger than premiershipsโ€ and I canโ€™t help but think how the bloody hell would you know, Paddy?! ๐Ÿ˜†

Well boys and girls, I just had a VERY SPECIAL visitor to my houseโ€ฆ..the Premiership cup presented to the players on the night!!

Simple:ย  it is easiest to relax on the couch and watch the game on Foxtel and mute it when I know I won't like what is happening (which usually results in fast forwarding from qtr time to the 15 minute mark of the 3rd qtr) and I'm mesmerised all over again.ย  The vision never lets me down.

But when I know that there is a better commentary of that last minute, I'll happily go and listen/watch, again...

I read yesterday Alan Richardson was driving around with the cup & if he saw a painted red & blue fence he'd pop in with the cup.

I hope at some point they have popped into Neale's house

The best part of any call of the third qtr bliz is that the vision never changes.ย  A joy to watch.ย ย

  • 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 forecastโ€”20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze โ€” 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 Kateโ€™s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwoodโ€™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 isnโ€™t a standard conceptโ€”itโ€™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.

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasnโ€™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 ย six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his teamโ€™s unfulfilled potential rang true โ€ฆ well, almost.ย
