Dude, i literally had the same thought. Copypasta'd that exact line to my mate. Beautiful turn of phrase. Petracca is going to rip games apart and win finals off his boot. He's such a great combo of happy-go-lucky-cockiness. Edit: sp

Wouldn't work over the sound of all that jewellery. And everyone would be distracted by the cheese platters.

What's great is that you will likely be happy. Good for you, pickett

Yea [censored] I saw it just after but thought I'd get away with it. Great minds, fella. Great minds.

Love Johnno Brown. He's so into the Dees at the mo I wouldnt be surprised if we were his team as a kid. To Eddie saying that he said: "I'll say it for you..." thought he was gonna unload but reigned himself in.

Oh god weren't they hilarious: "that's the sound of their jewellery clanking". Go [censored] yourself Eddie. You heard him tremor at the possible PC furore when he said of Majak "plays like tarzan looks like Jane". Had to cover his arse pretty quick. In short. [censored] Eddie McGuire.

All I heard him talk about was Majak Daw.

About 12 mins to go on the clock in the first, check out ANB's handball-ground pass to Tracc. Just brilliant. It's something I've noticed this year. The lads do a whole lot of brilliant but sometime too cute things - handballs over the head, dribble passes, tap-ons. We're going to click really soon and these things will be more brilliance less too-cuteness. I'm loving it. [censored] me, we actually have a team.

I've spent a day in Bruges, on my 3rd viewing now. No excuses

Deadset? You couldn't dream that up.

So is this 'cos they couldn't find any rule changes to make this year; had to put their grubby mits on something? I'm not that fussed, if we have the kind of success that is currently looking possible then this version will become the theme song for a whole generation of young Dees supporters imbibed with the spirit of winning. Any conservative sentiments we older crowd hold now for the old one won't mean [censored], and hopefully in 5 years the new one will harken memories of the 3-5 flags we've just won. But also [censored] Gil, dude's still a [censored].

Dunno if im allowed a shameless plug on here (so mods delete if you must) but if you like history podcasts my mate and I make one telling different stories of rebellion and resistance. Also SEN sucks with or without Schwarta

This is the game I remember. Shocking first half and then just absolutely magical. The Wiz; he'd have to give it a shake for best small forward of all time.

Not even Jack Viney could make Jack Viney cry

Watching the reply I was looking for a moment when we turned the game around. To me, it was with about 12 minutes to go in the second, with what resulted in Weideman's beautiful running goal. The catalyst was Oliver, scooping the ball up and shooting off the first in what was a seamless chain of handbills, moving us into the 50m arc and setting up the Weed. Champagne football and a sign of the glory to come.

Yep. Did not see that coming. Also, if you're looking for a new chance in life, go to India and become famous. It's easy. "Selfieselfie? Signature, sir?" Amazing place.

Just got back from the ground. Unbelievable stuff. O'keefe and Lyon unplayable; the ball to take Virat's off stump was a piece of low, straight magic following some absolute curlers. Let's see what happens for the remainder of the series but suffice to say, that was one of the greatest experiences of my life.

I'm at the match. Best day of cricket I've ever been to. Such an intense experience in the crowd, cannot imagine what it would be like in the middle. The boys stood up, stoked and proud of what they achieved today.

This is a commendably lucid post

Flag?

True that re Trenners. I just don't mind that a degree of toughness is being shown again in a Dee's jumper. Then again, maybe it just shows we do things wrong every year!

I like that this is the second year a young Dees mid has been under scrutiny for being hard as regards new rules/interpretations. Viney bump Mark II

Nah, he looks like he's going to eat the camera. How's the eyes, pure disdain for such a stupid question. Total gold, this bloke is someone to build a team around.
