Watching the Momentum video on the club website, Gus is Melbourne through and through. He is going nowhere.

Spot on. Which is probably why we won 20.5 games last year, and a flag.

In a recent interview, Bontempelli said that we just went to another level during the latter part of the GF. It was the level that most of us knew this team was capable of. They will get enormous belief from that. So to answer the question of the post, no.

IMO, the most influential player ever to wear the red and blue

Oliver. The whole passage of play, Jackson’s follow up, the handball, Clarry just swallows it at full speed, then the kick which sails over the goal umpires head. And the reaction of the Bulldogs, as if to say “we can’t beat this mob”. It just highlighted how much better we are than any team going around. We finally went to that GEAR we all knew we had.

Agree with everyone’s sentiments here. It’s great to see a bloke who gives his all being rewarded accordingly. Well done Mitch and MFC

When I read that Macrae had won that medal

Cheeky little whack from the Trac, loved it

When I read this, I almost choked on my fifth beer for the day, spilling it down the front of the guernsey I haven’t taken off in 3 days

Nah, he is waiting till after the GF, and he is nominating us

I would have thought that if Cerra wanted to go to Carlton he would have nominated them by now. Or am I being too logical

Goody said in his press conference this morning that May would not be taking part in the match sim. He also said that with his rehab schedule planned for the week, he is certain to play in the GF

I would think, as professional sportsmen, the 24 or 25 players in the mix to be in the 23 on the day, would be adopting this attitude anyway. The curfew is probably more directed at the 13 others. So the club wants everyone on the same wavelength. Totally committed to the cause is what I am taking out of this. The likes of the Caroline Wilson’s of this world, so want us to fail. Well, guess what Caro, start writing about horse racing.

Charlie Watts was married for 57 years

Brilliant, love this!

Agree. They will get the week off, which negates the finishing bottom half of the 8. Hope Port can come back from here, otherwise we have a hell of a fight on our hands.

Fritter and Petracca should have kicked those goals. Game would have been almost over at half time. But now Geelong have a sniff. If we lose from here, no one to blame but ourselves. Having said that, I would take a 5 goal lead at half time on a prelim any day of the week. If our fitness is as good as we think it is, we power into a granny.

Was going to post something very similar, don't have to now. Well said!

When I read that, I wondered why an ex Eagles player would bring that up. Doing a bit of research gave me the answer. Grew up in Geelong

Maybe Nathan wants to be part of it, in the team or not?

I remember an accidental contact that broke Mays eye socket. With the amount of scrutiny that is on any physical contact these days, it would be foolhardy for anyone to go outside the rules in a prelim and potentially cost themselves a grand final berth. As I said, this ain’t the 80’s.

Time to erase another one of those embarrassing records from our past, I say.

Intimidate or crash how? This isn’t the 80 ‘s where the biff behind the play was rife. I am sure our key players are big and strong enough to endure the rigours of modern AFL football, especially anything thrown at them by Geelong, Port or the Bulldogs.

There’s this bloke called Viney who may have a bit to say about that
