Those who left on bad terms...
The club was very badly run for a long time. There must be plenty of people with legitimate grievances out there. Junior is an obvious example. But the grudge is against the people who treated you badly not the club itself. 99% of people can tell the difference and I think thatโs why there was an almost universal outpouring of joy from past players when we won. We all love the club but not necessarily the people who have been involved with the club

The Premiership feeling
That was as comprehensive a finals series from a premier as i can remember. This team should win another 2 flags imo. I'll be very disappointed if we don't win another

I reckon the one we win in front of the faithful at the G will go close

Given the speed at which this process is moving I reckon this thread will outlive us all

EVERY ANGLE: New look at Dees' flag-winning burst
Complete misnomer. The angles were the same as every other time i've watched these goals. That said, gave me an excuse watch again which i don;t mind at all.

2021 Player Reviews: #6 Luke Jackson
Genuine point of difference. Effectively an extra midfielder at the center bounce. An absolute beast of a player. Immortality beckons

POSTGAME: GRAND FINAL vs Western Bulldogs
As soon as the fixture comes out i'm putting a circle around the date of our game v West Coast at Optus and start organising my flights and accomodation (hopefully no ongoing border issues but you can;t be sure with McGowan). It'll be a pilgrimage of sorts, visit the hallowed ground of Optus, pay my respects at the final resting place of the Norm Smith curse. And i want to lord it over the West Coast natives Outside of the G i can;t think of a more appropriate location to end the drought than Optus. We buried the Norm Smith curse and exorcised the ghosts of 2018 in one go. September 25th 2021 was a beautiful night.

2019 Draft Re-Ranked
He's a stager and quite dislikeable but Weightman should be higher in that list

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. Youโve 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 Iโd have Tom Hanks as Goody. Heโs 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
