The Premiership feeling
I'm looking forward to reliving the experience and celebrating with the faithful in 29 days time. I'm so looking forward to heading into the city, proudly wearing my newest Dees merch, strutting along Swan Street.

New CEO - Gary Pert
You despise Pert and have had a few cracks at Bartlett along the way. Youāve implied some inside knowledge. A few posters have asked what you know and got crickets. Whats you're beef with Pert? What do you know that we don't? I reckon you've just got an over-active imagination

Melbourne Demons - The movie/documentary?
In the big screen adaptation Iād have Tom Hanks as Goody. Heās plays the everyman role well (although he might be a little too old at this stage) Reckon Jason Momoa could play Maxy Dwayne Johnson aka the Rock play Stevie May Hugh Jackson as Rick Lever No idea after that

10 Most Important Players in 2022
HArd to argue with the list. Petty maybe gets in ahead of Langdon. I know TMac's form tapered off in the second half of the year but we would have been stuffed if he didn't step up in the absence of BB and the Weid for the first half of these season. Very important contribution from Tom this year

Learnings, Circa 2021.
Max Gawn is the best captain in the AFL James Harmes delivered the most sumptuous inside 50 kick of the year (century?) to set up Fritsch and kick-start the revival Christian Petracca produced one of the all-time great Norm Smith performances Luke Jackson is going to be some footballer Jake Bowey thinks this s**ts easy

Happy Halloween to the Cats
- Flying the flag
Only available space left is on the roof! Next year maybe you'll get a flag or banner up there- 13 victories shaping Melbourneās 13th flag
I reckon the win over the Tiges on Anzac eve in Rd 6 should be higher than 11. Huge game in terms of generating belief in our system and ability to execute on a big occasion at the G. We beat Richmond at their own game. They challenged hard early, we were wobbling, but we steadied and won convincing in the end. They couldn't live with our intensity. First time i really started to believe we were genuine contenders. I have a soft spot for our Rd 1 win v Gold Coast 2015. First time i enjoyed a game at the G for a long time. Beautiful Saturday afternoon. First time i had a seen us score a coast to coast goal in an age as well. A real thing of beauty from Dom Tyson- POSTGAME: GRAND FINAL vs Western Bulldogs
I agree..............but i'm not tired of the second half against the Cats in Rd 23. The last passage of play starting with the the ridiculous insufficient intent call against Brayshaw and finishing with the mark and after the siren goal from Maxy WILL NEVER GET OLD- Will a team improve enough to challenge us next year?
We may regress due to injury next year. We may not be as hungry. Not sure what Burgos departure means. It is possible we wonāt perform to the same level Far more likely imv is our unmatched, and genuine differentiator, ruck combo of Gawn and Dogga will torment the opposition. No other ruck can stay with Maxy around the ground and Dogga is a fourth midfielder for us at centre bounces. Where most teams don't have one decent ruckman we have 2 stars. They are an unbelievable weapon All the youngsters will improve. Kozzy has more levels. Bowey is a beauty. Petty, Rivers, Sparrow, Jordan will get better. BB has found his feet. TMAC is the only player who may be past their best. We have competition for spots which will keep everyone on their toes. In terms of other teams I think the Swans are a genuine threat. Real talent on their list and very well coached. GWS if they can stay injury free (Big if). Doggies have genuine mental scars to deal with after the mauling they copped from us. Great midfield but no ruck, and very suspect defensively Tiges might have one last hoorah in them Weāll be favourites for the Flag and rightfully so. Yes teams will hunt us. Thatās a given. But we can match anyoneās grunt and intensity. I reckon the only team that can beat Melbourne next year is Melbourne. But if motivation is needed to ward off any hint of complacency then we should remind them that they havenāt won a flag in front of the faithful at the G. I canāt think of a better motivator for this group than lifting the cup at the home of footy with all the fans there to enjoy and celebrate with. It was the only missing piece in any otherwise dream season for us this year Iāll think Iāll head to the bookies now and put my money on the Dees.- Jared Polec
Jared Polec is a great idea. Why not. While weāre at it we should ask Jonathan Patton if heās interested in resuming his footy career with us as well.- Daisy Pearce - Coach?
Her insights are top-notch, she obviously understands the game but we don;t know if she'll be a good coach yet. Eventually a woman will break through and coach a mens team and I would love if it was Daisy- It is time BT is pensioned off
