During the Brownlow an old friend messaged to say "Wines wins a Brownlow, you guys got Toumpas"

I'm not kidding when I say this was the first time I thought about this that night, it literally hadn't crossed my mind. I told him I'm sure Port and Wines would prefer to be playing in a GF that week. 

Wines actually said that in his brownlow interview.

Brownlow or norm smith. ?

No contest.

    I say we flush out any residual traces of MFCSS by reorienting the topic of this thread. 

    Who here is a fan of the Stone Roses? I particularly get a strut in my step when this bobs up in my I-Tunes rotation!

    Love the Stone Roses!!! This is an awesome song, as is their song Love Spreads.

    Toumpas a big miss. Could have gone Wines i think. 

    Hundreds of stories like that I know, but the fact that Ollie and Jack are best mates & Todd Viney was in the footy department makes it worse

    Too true.

    After Toumpas, it went: Stringer, Macrae, Wines. Port bid on Viney (and Daniher) before getting Wines.

    Love them Col! I wanna be adored and Love Spreads my 2 faves of theirs!

    "I am the resurrection" is a classic as well.  To be fair there isn't a bad song on either of their albums

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
