Great to see

I hope someone is looking after our oral and now visual history.

Every player from the 2021 premiership side should have their story of the day recorded plus the coaches of course. Like archives they can restrict their publication for say ten years but imagine a detailed interview with Norm Smith and Ron from 1964... not to mention a follow up in 1966

 

I loved this. Great idea for a series. Look forward to the next eps.

How lucky are we to have this man as our captain. The best captain in the AFL hands down.
Not just a genuine superstar, but the most empathetic, down to earth, relatable and likable character in the game. You would just love to play with him and for him.

I’d love this. Especially grand final day video recordings of the bench and coaches box. Lock it away for a decade or two (or three) and release it in full. Would be incredible to see how the whole process works whilst watching the game. 

Wow.  That was just so well done.  We are so fortunate to have had these two as captains and of course as players.  

That was a strange - video listening to a recount of an injury. I get the focus was mindset but still it was strange to talk about that specific moment and not something else that the average joe can relate to.

On the day Kozzi signs on, another stunning example of our ‘culture’. Authentic and brilliant from Max and Garry.


Okay, in 2021 the players were isolated and in a bubble and they managed to win the big one.  They did it. They all deserved it, the players, the footy department. A few lucky supporters got over there to see it happen.

The plan for the following year was that the players wanted to do it again back at the G for their family, friends and fans back home. Admirable, but for various reasons, did not manage to pull it off.

Change in plans. Forget the fans. Big Max wants to do it for his dad and family. I want the players to see this clip and to do it for Max. What an incredible inspirational leader.  With the right mindset they can beat anyone.

Everyone else will just come along for the ride. All aboard!

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
