Big Ben Brownâs Wild Ride
I think big Benny already has two records at Melbourne. Most games (13) and most goals (25) in jumper #50.

Roosy Talks about the Grand Final
I downloaded the app but then was totally confused about what to do. Ended up deleting the app. Itâs harder for us old folk.

AFL Memberships
I just thought a professional market research firm could see the flawed methodology. Maybe I went wrong when I thought âprofessionalâ. đ

Expected better from Roy Morgan.

POSTGAME: GRAND FINAL vs Western Bulldogs
Good one. I started out wanting to speak fluent French. Then it slipped to making do. I thought of teaching 70 million French people to speak English but gave that up too. Now like you, I just speak English with a French accent.

POSTGAME: GRAND FINAL vs Western Bulldogs
Some of you know Iâve had a number of health issues to deal with over the last couple of years. I saw my heart specialist today and all is good. We were speaking French (as best I can) and I could swear he said âyour heart beats trueâ.

Most Improved Player
Fritter by a mile.

Closest to the mark...2022 membership total
Does the club offer a special deal to those MCC members? Or do they have to pay the same as everyone else?
-
Closest to the mark...2022 membership total
Somewhere between 1 and 74,000. Iâm certain of 1 because Iâve already signed up.

Is Gawn the best player we have ever had?
Heâs definitely one of them. But he might soon be behind Petracca, who has many more years to contribute. (With respect to Fritter, I just wish Trac wore the #31.)

POSTGAME: GRAND FINAL vs Western Bulldogs
What a week! I got the all clear from my kidney doctor⊠kidney function back and dialysis no longer a threat. I sold our house for a profit, which is unheard of in rural France. And, if you hadnât already heard, MY TEAM WON THE PREMIERSHIP!

When will Melbourne break these embarrassing records?
Agree!

Vale Greg Parke
Remember him fondly in his 26. In fact, he holds our record for games in that number. RIP Greg.

POSTGAME: GRAND FINAL vs Western Bulldogs
We won the Premiership after missing the final the previous year. Surely thatâs rare. Does anyone know when that last happened?

GAMEDAY: Grand Final vs Western Bulldogs
Ok, you got me. When I go to the local bar, i wear this Tee shirt and work my way across. (Itâs how I get my five fruit and veg per day.) But they donât have the footy today.

GAMEDAY: Grand Final vs Western Bulldogs
ThĂ© game starts at 11:15 am for me. Iâve never developed a taste for morning alcohol but Iâll start at half time. Hereâs the plan⊠If weâre well in front at half time Iâll have a rosĂ© or three. If itâs very close, Iâll go for white. And if weâre in trouble, red. If weâre so far behind we canât win it, Iâll opt for Spirytus Vodka.

International Demons
Proving harder than I thought⊠In 1962, French President Charles de Gaulle asked, "How can you govern a country which has two hundred and forty-six varieties of cheese?" There is immense diversity within each variety of cheese, leading some to claim closer to anywhere between 1,000 to 1,600 distinct types of French cheese. Iâm going to need a bigger cheese board.

Weâre only 500 km apart! Drop in any time.

International Demons
Bonsoir from France. I donât think there are other Demon supporters near me, but that hasnât stopped me from flying the scarf in the car, putting that little membership sticker on the number plate and wearing the MFC cap whenever I go out. Plus Iâm wearing the jumper around the house. Big screen awaits. Just need the cheese platter. đ Vive les DĂ©mons.

I gave our Roomba a pretty solid workout this afternoon.

Didnât feel a thing in France, other than THE ENTIRE NATION HATING US FOR THE POOR HANDLING OF THE SUBMARINE CONTRACT.
