Prediction: We will have won the most VFL / AFL premierships by the end of this decade.
My thoughts exactly.

Closest to the mark...2022 membership total
61,222. I don’t see the membership will increase that dramatically given people from Victoria still aren’t 100% certain whether AFL footy will be a TV event or a live event next year.

Proved them wrong
Didn’t he have one of the Wagner brothers and Petracca more or less on parity?

Kate Roffey, the unsung hero of our success
Well that’s impressive IMO.

A Shout Out to Saty
Saw him at a random Friday afternoon practice match against North at Arden Street last year. Sums up the blokes passion for the club. His training reports and injury updates were certainly appreciated for Demonlanders to read in their lunch breaks.

Kate Roffey, the unsung hero of our success
Didn’t someone around here suggest that Kate was going to the ultimate unselfish act by electing not to travel over to WA so she could allow another staff member to go?

Best email to reach Pert
I reckon every premier in recent years would’ve been just as unapproachable as our club has apparently been.
-
Best email to reach Pert
I feel so sorry for Western Australians for any pain and suffering caused by Gary Pert. You guys have sure done it tough over the last few weeks, that’s for sure.

Best email to reach Pert
Whenever one needs the CEO it’s invariably not going to be positive.

Gosch's Paddock.
Speaking of grounds, we played our most scintillating footy away from the MCG I thought. Most of our really good wins took place away from the G and our last 4 games at the G (ESS, GWS, Hawks, Dogs) were some of our poorer performances of the year. Marvel, Optus and Adelaide Oval (aside from the Adel game) is where we played our best footy Hopefully we can replicate our awesome form next year at our home.

Who’s going to fill the back pocket?
Maynard from Collingwood.

Odd time to make a complaint to the CEO??
-
Is your life complete now?
Almost. 95% there. A flag at the G would make it 100%. People who attended in Perth would beg to differ. Really hoping we’ve got another flag in us over the next 3-4 years before May and Gawn pack up. Hope we don’t do a West Coast and go backwards by the year or the Dogs who failed to even makes the finals for the next 2 years.

The 2021 Backline
100% agreed. I posted after our win over Sydney that it was indisputable that the 2021 backline was the best to represent our club in the modern era. Certainly since the early 90’s. They just gelled so well this year.

POSTGAME: GRAND FINAL vs Western Bulldogs
Would be Richmond in 2017 wouldn’t it? I’d also like to know who was the most recent losing GF team to kick 6 goals in a quarter and yet still lose like the Dogs did last night.
-
GAMEDAY: Grand Final vs Western Bulldogs
Exactly what I’m thinking.
-
First Goal, Norm Smith, most goals, winning margin
First goal - Hunter Norm - Harmes (30 touches/2 goals) Most gls - BBB Margin - 39 pt win to us.

Why Jayden Hunt must be the sub
Same same yeah? I would say our selections have been predictable and successful.
-
What would a premiership mean to you?
Best wishes to you mate. Let’s hope the boys get you the flag you’re so hoping for.
-
GAMEDAY: Grand Final vs Western Bulldogs
Happy to bag the win and move on to our next opponent.
-
Why Jayden Hunt must be the sub
I’d be flabbergasted if Jordon isn’t sub tomorrow. Our selections have been predictable and conservative all year, and having no injuries have helped. From a sentimental point of view I’d be taking Hunt over JJ but the club has rightly thrown romanticism out the window, as per Jones returning home.

GRAND FINAL: Melbourne vs Western Bulldogs
My apologies indeed. You’re spot on.
-
GRAND FINAL: Melbourne vs Western Bulldogs
Fair enough mate. Each to their own. I personally prefer they focus on the game rather than remind us Victorians of our current plight. Tomorrow night is supposed to be an escape from the doldrums.
-
GRAND FINAL: Melbourne vs Western Bulldogs
I’d like to thing the MCC and the state government would fight tooth and nail to retain the GF given it has a 40 odd year contract and has lost it two years in a row.
-
GRAND FINAL: Melbourne vs Western Bulldogs
Really hoping the crowd isn’t going ahead with this petition by Basil to stand up and applaud all people in the first quarter that can’t be at the game. Just focus on the game. https://www.google.com.au/amp/s/amp.abc.net.au/article/100488598
