What strikes me about this team vs all the others in my 45 years supporting is how much purpose they play with to drive the ball forward at all costs. Old Melbourne sides had me screaming how they’d mess around with the footy and inevitably turn it over, not this one. This must be what supporting a good side feels like.

Nice training drill for the boys out there….North are several classes below

we better win by 20 goals then

Will Noble have a sook when we beat North by 12 goals?

no Dunstan?

If us as reigning Premiers cant beat North even in a practice match, stand back and watch the fireworks!

Certainly more fun than another day sitting in front of the computer "working" from home

I can’t see Gus wanting to leave myself, he seems such an ingrained and popular part of our club. I suppose only if he wants a massive payday which we couldn’t begrudge him for…going to be tough to keep everyone we have so many stars now

Tomo shouldnt be far off he was back in light training in Grand Final week so he's been up and going for a fair while now

4-6 😬

What a joke we had one of the most dominant finals series ever (teams usually have at least one nailbiter in finals we **** it in) with just THREE elite players??

Still a valuable player when he’s up and going played some good games for GWS….but he’s injured more often than not had a terrible run: on that basis alone our list is better off without trying to rely on him but I’ll always be a fan

The Suns seems to get obliterated by injury every season, I can barely remember them putting a full side out on the park ever

I should be there, I generally get to Casey games pretty easily as I live on the Peninsula

Do Bulldogs supporters go to the G? They dont have many as it is so wouldnt be expecting a monster crowd

Welcome to the club Taj, man this makes me feel old it seems like yesterday I was watching his Dad dominate games on the wide expanses of the mighty 'G.....

Be a shame to lose him but you cant keep everyone....

Still have to pinch myself when they start an article describing us as “premiers”!

Fair enough, I guess we do need extra cover in the event Oliver/Petracca/Viney get injured - I'm just wary as to why St Kilda would throw him out the door for nothing I always get alarm bells when a player is discarded like that...

I would have thought Sparrow/Jordan would be in line for more onball time before we needed a player like Dunstan

To Hell and Back to Back

My thoughts exactly 2 years at GWS will be back in (and at) Melbourne

Carlton still lack class and grunt in midfield even with Cerra coming in - they loaded up on way too many flankers, where we started the rebuild in the guts (thanks Roosy) which is the right way to go about it

Yeah I think when ANB kicked that set shot the tears flowed…I can remember being in tears singing the song when we won a bloody game in 2014 it was such a rare event so we’ve come a long way!

Can think of too many blokes we’ve had over the last 20 years who are as natural a goalkicker as Bayley….maybe the Wizard or Liam Jurrah (briefly) that’s about it
