I'll message you, Crusty.

Magic, Flower! My heart. You know what it's doing.

On the basis of the preceding 5 pages, no. Just nice.

Somehow, let's make it An Event, Wrecker.

Some top choices there. May I add the debutant Christian Salem's Round 13, 2014 match winner v. Essendon, one of the ultimate team / length-of-the-ground / desperation / clutch goals; moreover, in dark times. A type of goal we're getting rather more used to. And without the darkness.

I'm not normally a baseball cap wearer but how validated do I feel atm, quietly proudly sporting this everywhere (in unlockeddownland - sorry...). And I get to do it for two weeks. At least.

Suburb, Satan? Pop it over on the 'Flying (Laying?) The Flag' thread too🙂

That's one of the weeks ticked off!😁

Thanks thanks thanks again @The Mighty Demons And how's the crowd noise, particularly after #2. Looking forward to that love, very predominantly for our boys, on Saturday week!

Some great insight and analysis in the foregoing; thanks everyone - my insecurity is greatly diminished! A common thread has been 'to be The Best, you beat the best'. I agree, and we have been provided that opportunity in the most clear way. A win will be a great win. And for the unaligned (poor b******s) it will be a great game and certainly not one of the many fizzers of the AFL era (specifically not mentioning two of them...) One 'margin', observation: I was worried about this if Port we're in, but with the SA team out, I expect crowd support will favour us as well as, if not better, than Friday, thanks to the way the team played and entertained and the individual/character highlights. We got in first and WA won't be dropping us; indeed, I reckon a fair bit of rusting on might have happened! And so, though the Dogs clearly aren't concerned about 'away' crowds, I'm thinking (a) the boys continue to get inspiration they obviously value and (b) the Optus/umpiring effect will favour us (already did?) And in passing, mustn't the AFL be rubbing its hands having two teams whose colours are on brand with theirs! Two weeks of a pretty narrow palette everywhere we look coming up (though cue the pale blue ump strip too? LOL)

...or this guy: https://images.app.goo.gl/6hUnHXWnxzATQJ9J7 A New South Welshman, but full name (I just learnt) Peter Malcolm Sumner-Potts. Surely, then, a Melbourne Football Club supporter.

On ice for a little longer, Mr Stone! Meanwhile, Melbourne Football Club Supporter Stirrings?

Scars? What scars?

He was everywhere last, Max, even taking marks on himself (the latter being a familiar position to him btw🙂)

This thread is going to go MENTAL now!

I've seen the original; 5th dot point reads: • AFL Grand Final hosting rights in combination with post-premiership uptick in retail (and other...) spending by 60,000 new WA Melbourne Demons forecast to add 2% to State GDP.

👏

One of the Salem's Brighton cafs. Classy👍

Fritsch on MMM: Hibberd "will* be a great replacement" for Smith. Goodwin, in presser, regarding "decision with Hunt this week*": it "comes down to what our risk appetite is like." (*my emphases)

Like it, Faulty! Although, if 'Demons' was a place (and who isn't finding it so in these both socially challenging but footbally exciting times?) then maybe it is correct?😁

From my locked-down Melbs family: 'somewhere in 'Brahton''. The love knows no bounds!

Just read the @Mazer Rackham @Demonstoneand @La Dee-vina Comediatickles. Nice ones guys!

My apologies putting you through that, WCW. You sound close to becoming WUW!. Uniquely - with the how-did-I-forget-him Stephen Febey - all the players in the squad have only a single vowel doing vowel duty in their names. Have a look back at the italicised bits of my posts (and at my "Of sorts" reply to you😉) A word-based team, as opposed to a categories-based one was inspired by your anagram one. I had to do something to get me back on track after my own 'just spill the damn beans!' moment!😄

...And Mazer snares the bronze! Sooo... Hey, 'the rest', get the 'tether' yet?

. p.s. Note Haymes paint tins. Been giving them a good go, too! Looking forward to 2 more weeks of 'All The Goals' - LOTS of them
