    Thanks guys. In bed with tonsillitis so I missed it. Shattered.

    Anyone got a link for the premium posters, I can’t find them anyway. Argh
  3. Not until the embracing on the bench with 2 minutes to go, did I start to well up. I’d had too much of an adrenaline dump after the third to experience any type of emotion until that moment. Kind of surprised me.

    My favourite quotes from BT during the game: “The melbourne fans in that pocket have gone unbelievably”. “Bailey Fritsch the only player to have kicked 5 in the 2000s”
as the screen displayed 5 other players who have kicked 5 goals in a grand final in the 2000s. In the last: Brayshaw “the crowd are calling for max to kick a barrel” immediately after: BT “I think the crowd were calling for the barrel”

    Approx 60cm x 45cm mate. I ordered a pre-framed poster from walltowall.net.au and that’s the size they’ve listed. https://walltowall.net.au/products/mark-knight-herald-sun-melbourne-demons-2021-poster?_pos=4&_sid=11c905ca3&_ss=r
  6. Got well wishes from almost every dogs supporter I know post game. They are of the same ilk as we are from a supporter perspective and I respect that.
  7. Going to set up two TVs side by side and play both of them at the same time
.it’s that good!
  8. 45 years I have waited for this moment. 45 years of love, heartache and often embarrassment. We bloody did it. I have no voice, the hangover from hell, can barely peel my lips apart and I wouldn’t change it for the world. Time to crack another can and watch the replay. GO YOU MIGHTY DEMONS and Thankyou from the bottom of my heart!!!
  9. I have just entered the oxygen tent. I will see you on the other side. Go Demons!
  10. My house is ready. My body is ready.
  11. Well from a personal perspective. Do: Naked Melbourne fan seen running through Eltham after Demons flag. Dont: Naked Melbourne fan arrested after running through Eltham after Demons flag.
  12. My old man wore number 43 in 1959 but didn't manage a senior game. Going to have to break this thread to him gently...
  13. Had a couple of dogs in trays try and take my head off. Hopefully yours was one.
  14. After being constantly kicked in the balls over the course of 45 years, I have convinced myself I am fully prepared for a loss. At the same time I know I will not cope with it and it will consume my soul, knocking 5 years off my life. I am quietly confident of a win. It means everything.
  15. I worked the bridge in Wahgunyah over New Years. Might have spoke to ya
.
  16. Yep. Have played an entire finals series with a sprained ankle. That’s what tape and injections up to your eyeballs are for and when you can’t walk the next day after a GF, you just keep on drinking until you can.
  17. I totally get where you are coming from, but we are all in the same boat and I am as frustrated as anyone. I live in an eastern suburb with no cases but have close friends in the west who live in houses I can’t afford to take a [censored] in. I know it was tongue in cheek but it’s hardly a [censored] hole.It just reeks of Melbourne ‘elitism’. I am sorry you cant see your sick dad, I hope he is alright and sincerely hope that situation changes soon.
  18. Completely unnecessary.

    Sent a drunken text to Richo at midnight last night to thank him and declare my love for him and all things MFC. To my surprise he replied this morning, thanking me for the support and said he hopes the club continue to make me proud. He also said “The boys are so ready”.

    Harry Petty what can I say. From one of the worst first games I’ve witnessed live v St Kilda, to destroying the so called ‘3 headed monster’ with May on one leg. (With all due respect to an unbelievable game from Lever). I heart you Harrison Petty.
