A good day but sadly not the joy of the real day. Still we  won the premiership and that is the big one. IMO it was a well planned day that went off well. Gary was a good MC.

Yep, reckon we could get away with jumping on the ground and posing with the boys today. Not as if MFC will stop it 😁

I understand they need to hurry people through but man they were rude. They told me not to touch it, so I did just to spite them

Really great day. Wonderfully organized by the club. I thought the presentation was wonderful. Great to have Jones and Jetta farewelled properly. Amazing to see Daniher so emotional. Fantastic for the players to have their kids and partners there too. 
Well done to the club. This will never replace the joy of seeing this happen live, and hopefully we can experience that in 2020, but it was a wonderful experience nonetheless.

Other than that great day. 

I got a tad emotional when Neale got up. 

Was also a great touch passing the cup to different generations before it hit the stage. The ox and wiz got a massive cheer

Well done to all involved in organising that. What a great day.

Garry as MC was a good choice. He is just a natural public speaker 

Loved how they did the premiership cup relay like format. 

Loved seeing former players there including McDonald, Schwarz, farmer, Grinter &any of the older legends.

Can't help but think of Jim & how he would have enjoyed this.

Good to see Todd Viney be part of the cup presentation & I hope he & jack get a photo of the cup together. 

Good to hear Simon speak and can I just say how amazing Neale daniher is. Yes his speech has virtually gone & his hands have weakened but to walk up on stage on his own & stand there then continue to walk around the ground, just so good to see him there.

And it was bloody good to be back at the G

That was a great day. Obviously nothing would equal being at the game for the win but I feel like the season is now complete, we actually did win it and now it’s time to move on.

i feel like the club did a great job, I certainly appreciate the effort they went to in putting this together.

 Looking forward to being at the G next year as we win another, Go Dees!

Shed a few tears. Sang the song until my throat was raw. A great day. Let's hope we can be there for the real thing next year.

The applause that The Rev got was outstanding. I think it would have gone on forever if Garry hadn't stepped in.

 

Premiers!

Wow, what a great turn out and what a good run sheet the club put on

Was a great atmosphere, some really big cheers as we piled on the goals!

Great to see all the past players, and the passing of the Cup. Big cheer for the Wizard! And he luv'd every bit of it.

Cutting off the Metallica music too early was a little anticlimactic - I was getting so bumped ! Could have started with some Bells Bells too. That intro was when the emotion of the day geared up - our team, our club ! 

New Spotify game day playlist has been created.

A very enjoyable day, kids had a great time. Let’s do it again next year. Had to laugh when they put JJ’s name on the scoreboard as Jordan. Was waiting for one of the regulars here to correct them.

Happy for all the fans that got to attend today, i was blessed to attend live here in Perth and still riding on the high of the win. I hope today on the rewatch those that missed out got to feel something close to what i did.

One of the things i'll never forget about this premiership is the reaction i saw from my family, they were as excited as i was when we had won. They've all seen multiple premierships on the TV supporting the Eagles and Hawks, but never had the opportunity to attend a grand final before. They all said it was the best experience going to the footy they've ever had and they were all as emotional as me and all the Dee's fan sitting around me in the cheer squad when we blitzed the doggies.

A wonderful day.

My highlight was all the children decked out in red and blue.

I think our club is in good hands for the next fifty years.

Thanks to the MFC for going so far to make everyone feel involved.

PS: Robbo and his band are rather good !

Just got home from what was a great day. The club did a fantastic job to organise this for us & how good was the applause for Neil Daniher when he got up on the stage? Very emotional. Just loved Hibbo's mini run to boundary with the cup too.😁

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.

Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

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
