  1. To support this, Gary Pert made an interesting statement in this article a couple of weeks ago where he touched on the Gosch's paddock upgrade and new facilities - seems there is a design already drawn up: https://www.sen.com.au/news/2021/12/06/melbourne-to-announce-big-profit-in-2022-ceo-provides-update-on-new-training/ ā€œWe’ve been training for many, many years basically on a junior football oval, now for us to be on an MCG size oval by the time we start the season next year, that’s our first step. ā€œBy the time we get to that point hopefully we’re a lot further down the track with the State Government and the AFL on our broader facility. ā€œI’ve seen the designs, it looks magnificent and that’s progressing and it’ll be worth the wait in the end.ā€
  2. Visualising Biffen dressed up as Dame Joan Sutherland doesn't have the same reaction on me.
  3. There's only one way to beat North Melbourne one bite at a time.
  4. Agree. Whilst Clarry called himself out for a s$&t speech, I thought it just added to the triumph our club has become. We value honesty and effort, and Clarry brought both to this being crowned the best this year and his effort in that speech. The fact he doesn't have the polish of a used car salesman just adds to his persona. I just hope he signs a Trac sized demon for life deal soon.
  5. You’ve got a nice way of paying compliments to the players @picket fence. compliments to you!
  6. Congrats Clarry - coaches award and bluey. Well deserved, ripper of a year.
  7. Try this mono, I don't think you need to do the luac file part of the instruction.
  8. Hi @Webber Joeboy posted this a while back, hope it helps: Thought I’d let you know that I have a picture framing outlet in Fountain Gate Shopping Centre, Narre Warren We’re called Hang Up and we’re located upstairs opposite Target. Mention you’re a friend of Joeboy and you’ll get mate’s rates.šŸ‘
  9. First time I’ve seen Maxy described as small!
  10. I don't often (in fact never) quote Robbo from the HS, but in his 50 best players article he suggested Clarry and Trac weren't Batman and Robin, they were Batman and Batman. I couldn't agree with him more on this point.
  11. I went with the Dennis Commetti commentary version tonight. Loved this call when Clarry kicked the last of the third. Enjoy from Petracca's goal.....
  12. Just learnt a new word, thanks DC. I'd have gone with carp.
  13. The last 10 mins of the third quarter brings me the same amount of joy as having my kids. I pretty much watch the replay daily from the point Daniel dumps Maxy. It will never get old.
  14. In Harmes Way replied to Demonland's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Optus Stadium = 2 more home games.
  15. Luke has built a lot of credits with respect to the condition he came back from last year's offseason. He was in ripper nick.
  16. It was a great day out. We were stuck in the Punt Rd carpark so missed the start, but had a wander around enjoying the ambience, the past cups etc and sat down to watch the last half. Goosebumps when Harmes laced out Fritta and the crowd went bananas. Got all teary when the crowd loudly celebrated the last minute of the third quarter. I didn't think re-watching the replay would have that effect on me, but it partially closed a grand final experience gap. I thought the touches with the ground GOAL celebrations, the thunder noise and even the small things like the scoreboard & clock keeping time with the replay was top stuff. And the ovation for Neale Daniher. And the past player guard of honour. And Noel McMahen ("It's about bloody time"). We're a classy club.
  17. You’d think we would have the lions share of the crowd on a Wednesday night. I’m thinking the atmosphere would be like the Geelong Elim final in 2018. Once you’re surrounded by that, it won’t matter what day it is.
  18. Just read your profile. Interests: hating the crows. LOL. Agree with the above of course.
  19. First order of business after replanting the goal posts is to relabel the 50 metre arcs to 24.03 Maxie arcs
  20. Interesting when they were speaking about grown men brought to tears, this is me. When I was in the queue to meet the cup yesterday and turned the corner and there it was. When I gave it a hug. Every time I watch the replay (even the third quarter of the prelim). When I hear our coach talk about getting some feedback from champions of different industries on what it takes to back it up and win again. Bang. Bang bang bang. I'm a bloody mess, but a happy one.
  21. If he wins us another 10 flags before he bankrupts us, it will be worth it
  22. When did it arrive Andy?still waiting for my purchase to arrive for my son. Cheers
  23. So not much chance of him coming to my place to fix the lights anytime soon then.
  24. How good is that.
  25. Agree with all above -esp. rebounding after losing both Astbury and Houli and with two average rucks with no depth. Additionally, Dusty was injured in the Round 18 win vs Brisbane. He didn't play the last 5 games, and Richmond were already toast by that point. I wonder what Dermie's analysis of our 2022 injury list will come up with.
