Hey Froggy. What happens when frogs double park?

We never get a ticket as everyone loves frogs.

I hope you guys, and everyone else on here, actually hang on well beyond the due date for that (last day of September, 2025), but a 4peat would put the C'ood'nt's record to the sword...well, to the dagger at least. If they'd played 1930 under the current, longstanding grand final arrangements, Geelong would have been premiers. So, a pure, 21st century, 4peat will trump the dodgy early 20th century one!

But Geelong is owned by Gawn!

I read this on their wiki page.

Froggy I was unaware you were unwell.

Please accept my apology and I hope you are on the mend soon. The lily pad will not be the same without your contributions.

I hope the flag is helping you mend and watching the replay is not hindering your exercise.

All the best for a safe and happy xmas and new year, regards from your mate on the other side of the pond, Redleg.

Thank you Red.

Watching the Grand final was great except the second and beginning of the third quarter’s. l am much more emotional since my stroke and was thinking around this time “here we go again”. But that was before the beginning of the onslaught!

Finally, I can watch the Dees win a Grand final on YouTube LOL.

Unfortunately, there is another regular poster that have a greater loss than me. So my deepest sympathy go our to them.

As a Prime Minister once said “life is not meant to be easy”. But sometimes it can be really unfair.

If the Dees can win three of the next five AFL Grand finals, we all should feel a little better.

Life takes us in different directions and hopefully Jesse is happy at GWS, but he must have watched the GF with a lot of “what if” thoughts.

No I wasn’t talking about Jesse, Maurisey got it in his post above.

Hiw are the lily pads in WA Froggy?

It was not that long ago people were saying the Dees would fall apart without Hogan. Glad to see they were wrong. I tend not to follow ex players as I lose interest once they leave the club.

I must have watched the Grand final onslaught at least 57 times and it keeps getting better. I still find it hard to believe the Dees won.

My rehab is going slow after the stroke and it taking much longer then I hoped to get full functionality back to my right side. Fatigue is still an issue. But on a lighter note WA is opening up on the 5 February 2022.

I am hoping 2022 is again the year of the Demons, as only one Grand final win in the past 57 years is not enough. Plus the winning feeling is intoxicating. GO THE DEES! 
Merry Christmas and a happy new year to all.

So we are not talking about Hogan? Not sure where he is now but I am sure he would have wanted to be a Demon in 2021!

He’s back, having grown about 21 cms and pretending to be a 2022 draft possibility, playing in South Australia with West Adelaide.

Will be drafted next year, ensuring the thread continues for another 10-15 years.

How ironic if we draft him again.

Jesse Hogan?

Pity Jazza was not around to see the Dees win in 2021.

Beagle or shockers ?

Best wishes with your recovery,  Frog. And despite your profession, you have a sense of humour. Well done and I applaud your missionary zeal. 

Beagles (Eagles) and Shockers (Dockers). I live in Western Australia. But was unable to get a ticket to this years Grand Final. We should have built a bigger stadium.

Accountants have a great sense of humour! Just look at all the very creative accounting many of us do!

Time to drop an MFC membership form anonymously in the letter box, followed up by a 'Demons are Premiers' poster the next day.

Brilliant idea! 

A week full of MFC membership forms should do the trick.

Alternatively you could fly your own flag. The bigger the better I suggest the below

 

I had my Melbourne flag flying outside until yesterday. But this one would be an awesome option.

Frog, your neighbour is trying to get under your skin. [censored] you off. 

Your reaction needs to be tempered. 

If he is a big thug, with busted nose and lots of ink,  and works at the abattoir or glue factory, invite him in, crack a frosty and tell him that the Dogs are your second favourite team and will win the flag next year. Delicately suggest that this would be the time to fly his Doggies flag. Tell him that you will fly one too and hope this does not eventuate. Tell him that if the Doggies beat the Dees in the Granny next year, you will move suburb. If you live in Doggie territory move anyway. If he lives in Demon territory diplomatically suggest that he could make a killing on his house and buy a mansion in Doggie land, if there is one. 

Alternatively if you have the physical advantage and the guy happens to be a mild mannered accountant and attends the local Baptist church, Invite him in, throw up over his black shiny shoes, use offensive language, and take his flag down yourself. Tell him that you recently converted to the Muslim faith and don’t take kindly to Doggie supporting Christian evangelicals. 

I am still recovering from a stroke and a qualified Accountant. So not much of a fighter. But as a Demon 😈 supporter, I am clearly the winner and will take on all comers.

Over here you live in either a Beagle or Shockers area. I feel like a high priest trying to convert the barbarians to a real AFL team.

Froggy open the doors and windows and let it blast.

Unfortunately, ours houses are too far apart. Backup plan should be to build a new shed that is really close to my neighbour and buy a really big (loud) sound system. Then educate him on the best theme song in the AFL.

I should keep playing until his flag is removed. How can anyone contaminate blue and red with white?

My neighbour is still flying his Western Bulldogs flag, it may be time to play my favourite song “It’s a grand old flag” for the next week.

Well    this has been answered  but yes    BRING ON 2022!

I am not afraid to admit I was wrong.

But I cannot go to a game to enjoy it R and B. It is however way better than those days.

I could not get to the grand final either!

But then again neither could Eddy. 2021 was not good for him as he lost the Presidency of the Filth and blocked from coming to the AFL Grand Final. Things are getting better!

I feel we have failed again DF? The 100 plan has been shattered. We Will just have to be happy with the 4 year plan!

You mean 57 year plan ?

So what on earth do we do now? What is this feeling? Who are these footy players? And who has a good recipe for banana bread?

All banana bread recipes are good.

we win another 4 or 5 grand finals in the next 10 seasons.

It is a strange feeling, to be honest, I not sure what it is as I never had this feeling as a Dees supporter before.

It does not seem that long ago we were getting flogged by 15 goals a game. But some how we managed to beg, borrow and steal people who actually know how to play the game very well. I like to credit these player to Peter Jackson, and call them Jackson heroes.

I still can not really believe we won!

last 45 minutes of the game was 100 points v 7 points. The onslaught was awesome.

I tried but failed to get some grand final tickets. Oh well, I will have to watch the game on TV.

Go the DEES!!!!!

Not your best post Froggy, for those of us locked down and not allowed to attend.

It is only a matter of time before Gladysland will force us into a lockdown as well. May as well enjoy our freedom before that happens.

I can leave home for any reason! Anyone feel like coming to the pub for a drink?

Is anyone getting a bannana tattoo if we win the premiership?

Which year?

What a classic ending to the Geelong game! I still find it hard to believe we won the minor premiership but life is full of surprises.

Hope you are all safe at home enjoying family life? 

It was good to see we beat the Beagles this week. OD will be happy!
 

Oh dear! We can't beat the lowly Dorks. 

BRING ON 2022!

As this season is not looking good for a grandfinal win. However, I do hope I am proven wrong.
