1. BT just after Daniel dumped Gawn over the boundary line with "Daniel and Goliath"

2. I don't know his name, but on the Indigenous radio call of Petracca's second goal which he described as "Daicossian"

But my favourite of the lot on the Seven coverage, and I can't remember who said it, or exactly when in the last quarter (probably around the time of ANB's goal), or even the exact words, but to the effect that the players can enjoy the rest of the game because they know they've got it won. Those words gave me permission to stop worrying, too. 

 

I liked Gerard Whateley’s description of Sparrow’s long goal.

Right up there with Chris from Camberwell 

I remember he tried to gatecrash joeboy’s three word analysis with a three minutes hate version.

He will not be missed.

Probably the wrong quote to use to continue  that conversation.

I was referring to Dr. D.

Uplifting references to Neale Daniher's saying, "When it's all said and done,  more is said than done!"

I don't get this quote.  'more is said than done'?  Doesn't that mean there has been more talk (said) than walk (done).  So we've talked the talk, more than walked the walk?  Which is not what you want to do.

Don't get it.  Can someone enlighten me on this?  What penny is not dropping for me?

I think you'll find that what he means is that people are prepared to talk about a hard challenge but aren't always prepared to do what is necessary to achieve a successful outcome when hard work is required.

Thanks LDVC.  But I still don't get it.  🤔

Surely it is meant to be, 'when all is said and done, more is done than said.'  See, this is not confusing.  Makes sense.

Anyway not important.

If more were done than said, the people who get things done wouldn't be so valuable.

The MFC got stuff done this year - on that we can all agree.


Petracca ... PETRACCA! ..... Christian Petracca no way.

I must be the only one who thought the call of "bang, bang, bang" was garbage. The entire broadcast failed to match the excitement of the game itself. 

I thought they were a terrible combination.  BT is horrific.

    Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

    It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

    The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

    The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
