I have watched the GF from start to finish about 30 time. I lost count after 30. I watch the 3rd quarter several times a week. Last Friday evening my wife said "not the GF again". So I compromised and watched the Prelim instead.

    Get a hearse for the curse..

    I will swear on a stack of Bibles I have watched the last half more than 60 times... And guess what !!! WE win each time by 74 points....        On an Umpiring note...  When Viney and later Spargo were pinged in the third Quarter @ the 7:26 min mark of the third ( for Viney) for a high tackle I just felt that the Bulldogs player ran into Viney and that was an unfair decision....

    The worst umpiring was the R23 Geelong game. The "no effort to keep in play rule" was diabolical. Not paid against Selwood in last minute and then paid against Brayshaw just 20 seconds later. Which in some weird "Universe actually likes us" way worked for us because numbnuts from Geelong belted the ball over boundary line and we know the rest. We have never ever had luck like that. We have experienced Umpiring like that (Adelaide 21) but never good luck. 

    Still horrific umpiring that went widely unnoticed. Happy to be corrected if I am wrong.

    Here's an interesting thought. As much as we know every second of the match (well from 3rd Q 16 min mark onwards) by heart, and can recite commentary from at least three different sources, NOT ONE of my Bulldogs mates (and I reckon this is widespread) has watched one second of the match back. They don't even remember the immortal Bang Bang Bang commentary!

    This is exactly the same as me with 1988 and 2000. Was at both, never watched a second back of either one.

    I’ve probs watched the last few minutes of the Round 23 match more than I have bang…bang…bang (which I’ve watched an ungodly number of times). For mine, apart from the actual winning of a premiership, the end of the Round 23 match was the highlight of the season.

    Game Film | It’s Coming Home has copped a hammering too in this house. It’s a better pick-me-up than a couple of espressos if you have ten minutes spare.

    Imagine living in a football world where there's no Petracca From the Top Shelf, no Bang, Bang, Bang, no Despondent Hot Girl, no Daniel and Goliath, no Heart Beating True and Blue, no Daisy correcting BT, no tears on Goody's face on the boundary line, no Bearded Demons Fan in Tears Covering His Throat, no recollection of someone kicking six goals in a GF for the first time in nearly 25 years - that's the life of a Bulldogs fan.

    Once per day with breakfast. only way to start the day. aside from the happiness, two big take aways are. 

    1. the dogs were incredibly lippy when they were 19 points up, then shut up fast. and then called us bad winners? 

    2. Tim English is a putrid footballer.

    You are being too kind to English.

    Sorry mate, trying to tone the insults down, i went pretty hard at port supporters last year, but to be fair, they're pretty gross.

    There was just a ridiculous number of highlights from round 23 on weren’t there! Enough for a whole season. re watched round 23 yesterday and can still feel that utter disbelief i felt back then. To win the minor after the siren is a memory to take with me to the grave… only to be bettered in the GF .

    Still not enough.

    🎶  It’s never enough. It’s never enough until your heart stops beating.  🎶

    The best thing about this song is its title: “Shell-Shock” 

    It describes how the Dogs looked during Bang Bang Bang. And the hot girl in the crowd and the Mike from Breaking Bad lookalike and the Bailey Smith fan club and my neighbours on either side as well as across the road, to name but a few. 😁

    Same here. I’m sure my TV groans every time I walk into the room. If it could talk it’d probs be like, ‘you know there’s more to me than the GF on YouTube, right?’

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.
