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

Everyone should be there. Pre season starts the following day.

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 agree with you on bt.

But sticking up for him I think it was 17 minutes chronologically  and 10 minutes of actual game time in play. 

But sidekick JB's call of bang bang bang now surpasses "Barry you star" by Quarters and "I see it but i don't believe it" by huddo.

Now 2nd only to the immortal "Jezza you beauty " by you know who.

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. 

Don't think they'll wanna miss this.
Be a lifetime experience.

You're not doubting my sincerity are you? It's something I've been working on. I only meant credit where credit's due.

Is it just me or is anyone else disproportionately excited about next Sunday?!

My son told me he’s gonna bring his new girlfriend to meet me sometime before xmas. I says, cool… pretty much any day other than December 5th. 

Last weekend my sister invited me to her work xmas do. I says, it’s not on December 5th is it? Coz if so, I can’t make it. 

Then this morning a friend asked me to her husband’s birthday bbq which is on December 5th. I says, I can’t go, remember? I’m going to the Premiership event at the MCG. She says, Really??! Because of that footy thing? 😳 that “footy thing.” Henceforth, she is dead to me. 😁
Soooo excited for it!!!!

A completely appropriate reaction WCW.

About time said husband finds another wife methinks. One who isn’t so ignorant concerning such important matters. Might have to play match-maker beginning your search next Sunday at the G.

Alas! Her husband is just as bad. He got on the phone and says, isn’t it just watching the GF replay? You can watch that at home anytime. I said, not with 30,000 adoring fans, I can’t. He says there’s more to life than football, you know. I said, yeah… there’s also cricket. 😝

"just" ??

"JUST" ???

Do they barrack for St Kilda or Freo or something?

"JUST" watching the replay isn't something you do to kill time. It's a rite of passage and vital to the well being of our entire society.

"more to life than football". Oh, so they do barrack for St Kilda.

Essendon supporters, actually. She was Collingwood ‘til she met him. So she’s the worst kind of fan: jumps ship and it’s from the second worst team to the worst team.

geez, if it's the replay on the big screen followed by the presentation that sort of dilutes the likelihood the kids will be that keen

maybe if they confirm that before time but i would be thinking rocking up about midday in time for the blitz to begin will be the easiest and less likely of children being tediously bored

the screens aren't exactly the best at the g

I got the impression they’ll be erecting special screens for the day.

So meta.

You would be watching us watch the replay of the grand final - which we all will have watched previously.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.
