  1. Melbourne v Dogs + Wild momentum swings Name a more iconic pair.

    Perfect result!
  3. In my time (since 2000, because rating players based on reputation is silly and I'm not an old fart who remembers last century), with the goal being to pick someone to play a game for my life: 1. Gawn 2. Oliver 3. Jurrah 4. Petracca 5. Green
  4. As lovely as 2021 was, we're all still missing that one sight we know we all need to see: Ron handing the cup to Max on a warm September afternoon at the G.
  5. Jake Lever was in the same boat. No coincidence he never really got into it last year either.

    There was a period there where I was convinced, and stats sort of backed me up, that we were undefeated with "Pedo" playing, and batted about 30% with him out of the side. Absolute cult hero figure in my own brain.
  7. Racism is bad I agree.
  8. Yeah he was a ginormous step up from Burgo for us Dees content nuts and really helped bring a unique flavour to the MFC social media presence/footprint. Most Dees fans don't watch that stuff and won't care though, so the impact will be minimal. Bye Ben, from those of us tragic enough to know who you are - you'll be missed!
  9. My god, do you know what this means? He has achieved his final form!!!

    Above everything else, that was an incredibly physical match, up there with any men's game I've ever seen. Womens' footy between two good sides is now at the point that it is legitimately exciting in its own right as a spectacle and a great representation of what Australian football is all about.
  11. Ross Lyon and the Saints deserve each other. Total mystery how this club has ever won a flag. Massive overachievement that.
  12. Happy to keep winning flags with WA talent then send them back to "that other country".
  13. Is Harris the best ruck in the comp? I think so - some of the things she does in the ruck remind me a lot of Luke Jackson's follow up work. And she'd probably beat him in a one-on-one in the forward line. What a string to add to her bow.

    No no you're not getting it. It's "buy 2,022 jerseys and get 50% off. 2,201 jerseys? No discount."

    This triggered the most "good luck to you mate" spew I've ever done.

    OK folks I'm out. This is just far too slow to keep going on with. DM me if Trac or Clarry get on a roll.

    Aiming to be the longest broadcast of the year in spite of The Queen's funeral emerging as a late challenger.

    Both Brayshaw boys are like…why are you interviewing US???

    Petracca is no chance right? His second half of the year not good enough...
  20. Chook replied to Wilson7's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Clarry getting completely ghosted by the umps…🙃

    The older I get the more I just want this award to be some nameless official walking out with a slip of paper and announcing the winner, before walking off and putting the medal in the post.

    Umps don't see him. You need to have a TV camera zoomed in on him to catch his brilliance.
  23. Chook replied to Wilson7's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Dees were pretty good in the early rounds of this year…forgot about that. Wonder if we'll see that again when it counts next year.
  24. You feel the lions might just pinch this. Zanker and Bannen unsighted (Zanker since the 1st and Bannen all year).
  25. Great work lads. Imagine, if the AFL side had turned up this finals series we'd be a very strong chance to take out all 3 comps this year. Oh well…
