No it shows him at a centre bounce

Maybe opening bounce.

It would be great if you could search for โ€œuploaded Mediaโ€ if that is possible

No not the one i saw. It was uploaded in the last week, if i could remember which thread i could track it down

I think it's exactly the one you saw. It fits all the criteria of being a few days ago and you responded to the post where the picture is. It's a pity your memory isn't as good as your Mac 10 years ago.

The Richmond game was when I started to believe.

Along with the entire footy world, but most importantly, the players knew something special was brewing after that win.

Remember it wellโ€ฆ. Was just happy to get a win! The Richmond game was when I started to believe.

There was a point in that Richmond game where it got weirdly quiet around the ground, as if all the Melbourne supporters took a collective breath & realised we were pretty serious

 

Disappointed it's not about that classic picture of him having a massive chunder that I won't post for taste reasons.

I cant remember Nibbler's vom, best all time AFL vom belongs to Jobe Watson i reckon.

If ANB's vom came after Lever's goal that night it almost sits at the high watermark of modern MFC history. There were moments in 2023, but we've never come to looking as powerful since that first half against Brisbane.

Now I feel like having a vom.

For those who are interested the vom came with exactly 1.00 left in the half but Ben Brown kicked a goal afterwards so he is the official holder of the high watermark.

Not so much in the last few seasons but Oliver is one of the best team player I've ever seen (that's across all the clubs)

His ability to bring his teammates into the game in terms of those receivers having clear space ahead of them was astoundingly good

It's a rare gift and it's like he knows what is going to happen before he even has the ball in his hands

He needs to get back into that sort of form ... A Grade Elite

Your mouth to Godโ€™s ears as they say. I love watching replays of earlier seasonsโ€”especially 2021. Which was actually hilarious because it was the first year I did footy tipping at work and told everyone weโ€™d win the flag and nearly got laughed out of the office. Thankfully, at the end of the season, I was the one laughing. We won and to boot, I also won the footy tipping comp. But, like the MFC, I havenโ€™t quite managed to regain the form of my premiership tipping yearโ€ฆ :)

Welcome to Demonland (and good luck!)

And I haven't heard that saying for yonks!

And it's not like Clarrie is playing badly, he's just playing in a way different way to how he used to play. B only, as compared to A++

As previously stated, his handpassing was previously dynamic. He's had 146 disposals in 5 games so it's not like he has disappeared

Like most of his teammates, he needs to use the ball better

Do that, and we'll start winning again

Let's face, we are just asking the players to share the ball around at speed. No biggie (yet, it is, somehow)

His game in Adelaide that year will forever be etched in my mind. His acceleration out of packs was next level and the phrase 'he had the ball on a string' gets used a lot but he literally looked like he had the ball on a string, every time he burst away from the contest and gathered, the ball would always seem to bounce back up to him and never away.

It was magic, one of the best individual performances I've seen from anyone in a Melbourne jumper. We've had a lot of great individual performances in losses but if there is one that always wish got us over the line and could change it, it's this one.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbellย with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprenticeย Will Verrallย who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

    It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
