Yep - Q39. Damn. Will it be like watching little fleas on the grass?

No, it won’t, it’s a big screen. 👍🏽

In a sudden turnaround, I picked up 2 tickets from Ticketek this morning Level 1, M31, row H,  not too shabby!

Ok, this is weird. Should I wait until 4 December when I'll get backstage passes?

Got our tickets yesterday. I’m guessing it will be a full house if the dogs celebration was anything to go by.

It seems based on the Ticketek map the entire northern and western stands. 50 K capacity. It will have a home game atmosphere I'm tipping. With the outcome already known.  And everyone will be in their seats to watch the magical 17 minutes (to quote BT)

Do we have to simulate being nervous when Bont kicks a "more [censored] than class" to put them 19 points up? I expect to see lots of people getting a pass out to have a gasper on the concourse outside.

I'm looking forward to the bit where everyone shouts out "bang bang bang" in unison. BANG BANG BANG! (I'm just practising.)

This is going to be good.

What does that fool know? It's already in AFL folklore as "that 10 minutes".

Spoke to a Hawks fan yesterday. He was saying that was the most amazing few minutes of football he can remember seeing. God it feels good, not just winning the flag, but doing it in a fashion that will never be forgotten. And respected.

I’m gonna be cheering on every goal like it’s live. 

cant wait to hear the crowd comments when Daniel dumps Gawn and when Bont celebrates his 3rd goal. Should be hilarious.

I'm not sure you get MR. He has an unusual, quirky way of posting often with tongue in cheek. It's often difficult to decipher what his resting face is and to figure out if he is being serious. I'm pretty sure that in this case he isn't serious and may be going for irony?

Am I correct in assuming Luke Jackson won’t be in attendance.

The players return to training the next day so I reckon Dogga will be back from Perth.

Van Rooyen suggested he’ll be training with Jackson through to Xmas in Perth.

At least that’s what I thought I heard??

Given the stupidity of WA and their insane border restrictions I wouldn’t be shocked if the WA boys have been told they can stay home to spend Xmas with their families before returning to pre season. 
If they come back now they won’t be able to see their parents for Christmas.

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
