Love it. Did anyone else notice Oliver’s terrible ball drop on that last goal? Sometimes everything goes right. 😀

Wearing two pairs of quality kmart jocks would solve that problem.

A fascinating thing for me with those comments is how quickly their supporters seemed to concede that they were done. As early as after Trac's goal at which point we were only a couple of goals up.  I only started to relax about 4 goals into the last quarter!

Those of us who were there on ANZAC Day 1992 know that the Chris Sullivan Line is real; only at 8 goals up can one start to breathe easy...

Darrell Eastlake - à la his exuberant early 1990s commonwealth games weightlifting commentating. Pretty sure he led to noise complaints!

Tim Lane for me, with assistance from Drew Morphett.

That is confirmed; a sure way to prevent nasty ball drops.

Martin Tyler would’ve been good to listen to. Special voice.

Richie Benno. "Marvellous effort that by young Oliver. I've never seen anything like this on any ground anywhere in the world. They're a very good team this Melbourne outfit, quite brilliant today. 22 very, very good players."

I love watching these goals over and over, but every time I see the bloke in the crowd tearing up, it gets me every time.

It was exactly how I felt at the time - firstly disbelief, then overwhelming joy, anticipation and expectation. "Can it really be true, can this really be happening to us?"

I still tear up with pride and happiness when I watch the onslaught. I must say even tinged, ever so slightly, with a minuscule touch of commiseration for the Dog fans, as these sorts of events (though never ever nearly so totally devastatingly overwhelming)  have been happening to us for decades.

The standard game highlights with commentary is nice, but a skillfully edited slow motion piece with more close up ground level footage mixed in, limited commentary and decent crowd noise is what I'm after

Sounds like being there  ...... 2022 GF PLEASE!!

Sensational is the only word which describes the play, I have watch football since 1952 and this is truly magnificent.

The faces of the Bulldogs said it all, we are done!

They werent just done, they were totally OBLITERATED! May the mental scars come back to haunt them year after year decade after decade for eternity!

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan.

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date.
