  1. Fritta will set him right.....
  2. A Van comes and a Van goes...
  3. Koornang Rd, 'cosmopolitan'.....pre covid I have sat in that cafe many a time for coffee and cake. Great cakes.
  4. I don't think they would be too upset as they are both dead.
  5. JT has said a number of times that we will go for what we need rather than best available so I am assuming we will go tall; unless of course our need is best available player
  6. One of my favourite photos. From memory one of the NAB Kickers ran up to join in then realised who they were and stopped.
  7. Thanks for posting a link not behind a paywall.
  8. TBH any shots of berlin landmarks with MFC colours in the foreground would be great. (We enjoyed Berlin)
  9. In terms of potential and probably talent I could possibly agree but at only 30 odd games ....... Otherwise we could end up in the mythical realms of the 3rd Flower brother and the 4th Waugh brother....
  10. "May has a hamstring injury....now we know why there is a 2 week break to the GF"
  11. Great photo. (How did Ross Smith get in that photo opportunity)
  12. Gee you are brave. The question is though would you want to be one of the 10? It is very exclusive which is not my style.
  13. Yes they actually call the game and explain how/why a goal is kicked. And G Healy still does not like us. And I am only up to half time and they have practically called the game for the Dees.
  14. I dont think BT is up to it anymore. Doing the GF is too long a day. His last quarter call was just a mangle of broken sentences - he was shot.
  15. Robbo would have been even greater if he kept his feet.
  16. He was certainly on my radar when I was a kid. One of those all round sports who excelled at football and cricket. He played in those days when a knee injury was the end of many a promising career.
  17. Here is a list of MFC players to wear #24 since 1964, courtesy of Demonwiki. There are some interesting names there, but not a lot of games wearing #24, or games for that matter. Note that Ian Ridley is just outside the date range. Ross Dillon Wayne Delmenico Graham Osborne Kelvin Richards Tony Martyn Des O'Dwyer Steven McCarthy Brett Bailey Luke Beveridge Phil Gilbert Clay Sampson Russell Robertson Liam Jurrah Jay Kennedy Harris Trent Rivers I think there is no doubt that Robbo is the standout, but then Dillon and Jurrah? What do you think?
  18. Just got the email for preferences in my membership pack. I went scarf, plastic card with Daisy on it. Scarf is ridiculous for FNQ but I have 6 caps already.
  19. Favourite - Sparrow Important - Fritta 1st of the 3rd Exciting - Fritta 2nd of the 3rd Extraordinary - Tracca dribbler Unbelievable - Brayshaw - only hit 2 targets by foot and this was one of them Professional - TMc - last goal Wtf - Gawn
  20. Sure did. I watched the 2nd quarter to bring myself down to earth, then watched the 3rd and 4th quarters which got me back right up. I didn't think the Dogs back 6 had a good game (Cough up) but Sparrow kicked his goal unmarked at CHF, and in the 4th Jacko and TMc did similar. What was the dogs defensive play? Commentators said the Dogs were short a back man and with Wood pulling the pin asap they are now short 2. Also in Bevos Blink of an Eye interview, he seemed very disappointed that the momentum was still with the Dees immediately after 3 quarter time break.
  21. 4 years ago when I was moving house I took most of my MFC memorabilia to the local Collectibles shop. The chap running it said (naturally) that of all the AFL sides, MFC had the lowest demand. memory is somewhat hazy but I didnt make big $$$ out of the stuff so your pennant say $20. Then again the market should be hot for MFC so you may do better.
  22. Well being in WA he obviously aint coming to VIC. I thought Garry might have flushed him out. Someone posted that Jeff had painted his garage door RednBlue. Anyone seen the OX?
  23. The only crushing burden that $cully ever carried was his wallet.
