Round 6 banner, front

The Richmond banner crew were great. Kinda felt sorry for them as they seemed resigned to an inevitable loss and were quiet and let us lead the way. I imagine this would’ve been us in years gone by. ☹️

Some mentions on here about Shaz and the grog squad and yes, Shaz is still front and centre of the Tiger Army. I met her on Thursday at banner making and we hit it off immediately but didn’t know her name. Chatted with her in the race yesterday and straight up asked if she was the infamous Shaz from days of old. She (rather proudly) said she is indeed. She’s been in the Tiger Army for 45 years!

PS: see that yellow and black crepe? Yeah well that was all my doing. It’s a dirty job but someone had to do it.

Y’all are welcome. 😁

No pics this week, for two reasons: firstly, it was a relatively routine banner so the wording should suffice…

… and secondly, I’ll need enough pic allowance for banners such as this week’s which is a milestone one… MAYSIE’S 200TH GAME!!!!

Right? It’s perfect for us.

Speaking of perfect, I love that we bastardised Queensland’s own slogan on the back. It’s a little bit cheeky but a big bit funny. 😂

Those of us who made this banner got to sign a card for Maysie’s 200th which was stuck on the banner and carefully removed afterwards and given to him. ❤️💙

I said what I say to him pretty much every week as he runs through the banner… “Loveya Maysie!” With a black heart. Black because that’s the only texta we had.

Another outsanding banner WCW. 

Love the snapshots of Mayzy top right.

Roughly how many hours and how many are involved in putting one together?

Thank you, DD. We’re particularly proud of this banner. The time it takes to make one depends on whether or not there’s a graphic (as in Maysie’s above) or just lettering. Also depends on how many people rock up on the night. I’ve been there when there’s only six of us and I’ve been there when there’s 54 of us (eg: banner making for QB and ANZAC eve). The average time it takes would be 4 hours.

I brought a friend from the UK who had never been to the footy before. I made sure we were there before the team ran out so he could experience the banners. He thought they were incredible and couldn't believe how big they were.
He'd never seen anything like it. 

Thank you @WalkingCivilWar for all your hard work that contributes to the great culture of our game.

Rehabbing: Great to see Kentfield back (much slimmer), walking with Tholstrup, TMac (suspect just a management thing), Viney (still being cautious with that rib cartilage?), Melksham (

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
