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.

  • 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

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    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.
