Anyone know what the match worn guernseys went for?

Wilsonâs Big Call
Her article about Goodwin the day before the grand final was atrocious. Took pot shots at his gambling background, Essendon drug history, divorce and near sacking. Absolute gutter journalism.

POSTGAME: GRAND FINAL vs Western Bulldogs
On my 5th full replay. Itâs honestly the best game of football Iâve ever seen.

The turning point
Wow itâs interesting watching that, but just focusing on Jackson. Jackson kept his feet when Martin went to ground twice, in the first clip the Bulldogs nearly had the ball at the start and Jackson immediately ran to the defensive side as a sweeper and the last clip shows how multifaceted Jackson is. English takes himself out of the game after the centre bounce and simply trudges but Jacksonâs speed and intensity makes it like having another midfielder. Sure, Brown has a point that their lack of defensive structure facilitated our scoring and turning point. But it was Jackson and the mids who had to win it in the first place.

Trust me⊠red wine and pasta- GRAND FINAL: Melbourne vs Western Bulldogs
Iâve gained 2kg over the past two weeks. I canât stand this anymore. Iâm a nervous wreck. Been trying to find comfort in wine and pasta. Made the mistake of watching one of our H&A games against the Dogs⊠you better believe that resulted in a 2014 Shiraz and pasta, butter and cheese. One more sleep to go.

Pandemics, riots and earthquakes⊠the Demons are coming đ- SEN interviews with past Melbourne players and staff.
Acknowledged his role was unlikely to continue when you get beaten by 186 points. Showed and read his diary entry for that day he got axed. Certainly didnât get on Demonland 9 years later to have an unrelated pot shot.- SEN interviews with past Melbourne players and staff.
He was a guest at a virtual work workshop I was at a couple of weeks ago. Was frank about the past (Richmond and Melbourne), his firings, depression, life in general and life after football. No comments as youâve described, but a lot more decorum than you.- What would a premiership mean to you?
Iâve never been embarrassed to wear the red and blue. Certainly, it could have been easier, but it wasnât. We were in a tough spot. $5m in debt at the start of the GFC, two expansion clubs, free agency and an ageing list. There have been a lot, particularly within this administration who have gotten us here, and sure things didnât go well with coaching and draft selections back then, but my gosh Jim picked us up and put us on this journey. For if he didnât start us off I donât know if we would be here. This win would mean the world for me, but deep down this one is for Jim.- Pre-Grand Final Match Simulation
- Sam Weideman re-signs until 2023
It was good seeing TMac being able to switch down back in the Geelong game to cover May. That versatility puts him ahead of Weids for me at the moment. That aside I can see him improving in the future and if he doesnât want to go anywhere I wouldnât trade him. Both Browns have injury history too.- Grand Final Day - What will you do?
âwhich way are they going?â, âoh why did they do that?â, âmy father says heâs texting you - why havenât you responded?â, âoh good itâs the ad break, you can talk to me nowâ, âeasy on the red wines, I donât want you snoringâ, âmy grandmother wants to know how youâre feelingâ, âoh well there is always next yearâ and my favourite âsee, Iâm a good footy commentator arenât I?â to which my response is always⊠âyep, better than BT!â I love my wife but I need to watch this somewhere else.- CHANGES: GF vs Bulldogs
Hmmm the doggies are a very dangerous team. Deep and powerful midfield, who know how to put scoreboard pressure on too. This is going to be an awesome game.- TICKETING: GF vs Bulldogs
Given my ticket to a mateâs son (WCE supporter) who has been barracking for the Dees this finals⊠under the strict condition that he gets a scarf and doesnât go home until heâs lost his voice. Go Dees!- POSTGAME: PF vs Geelong
