It's less than one kick per game. Nothing to get upset about, folks.

I'd be confident that Jaded is neither a Pratt nor a prat.

You'd look good with a "K" on one butt cheek and a "z" on the other. When you bend over, it'll spell "Koz".

Hard to believe anybody would be dumb enough to pay $300 for a piece of crap like that.

Is it compulsory for makers of such videos to have woeful music playing under the footage? FFS!

Maybe the other clubs realise he'll be going to Melbourne as a father-son so no point in inviting him.

Count the Gabba, Carrara and Cairns out then. They don't come any more dense than Queenslanders.

I hope the "Woo hoo!" guy gets a seat near a ground microphone again.

Not as nervous as me and thousands of other Melbourne fans! It was the longest, most agonising few seconds of my life until the ball sailed through and the sustained hootin' and hollerin' began in my lounge room.

The Brownlow, Norm Smith, Premiership and Rising Star would make it a glorious Quadrella.

I was only seven, living in a country town and more interested in the weekly ritual of the Saturday afternoon matinee than football and it was at the cinema where they showed cartoons (yay!) and Cinesound newsreels (boring) before the movie that one day featured some colour film footage of Melbourne v Collingwood that so enchanted me that I immediately fell in love with our magnificent jumper and my allegiance was founded. We didn't even have a TV in the house and, alas, I don't remember the Premiership and I have no memory of Ron Barassi playing for Melbourne. I started following the Demons in earnest in 1965 with Hassa Mann as my hero and it was his number 29 that I had my mother sew onto the back of my first Melbourne footy jumper.

Great highlights and some wonderful memories of a superb season there. I'd recommend that you mute the sound unless you're a fan of bland, annoying elevator muzak.

"Marks it at its highest point". No, that would be metres up in the air. Marks it with arms up at full stretch is more accurate.

Dwayne has had it in for Melbourne for a long, long time. I'm pretty sure that at one stage his employer (might have been K-Rock) even ordered him to tone down the relentless, over the top Demon bashing comments.

Plenty of room on the Demon finals train. All aboard!

Our record of 36.22.238 v Fitzroy in 1979 (I was there ) was eclipsed in 1992 by Geelong's 37.17.239 v Brisbane Bears. That day at VFL Park remains the highest losing margin of 190 points. Second is 186.

So are the numbers. Consider this: 1. Number 13 wins Brownlow in same year that his teams wins their 13th Premiership. 2. Our last flag was 57 years ago in 1964. I was born in 1957 and am now 64. 3. We won 17 games this year. Jake Bowey wears #17 and looks 17 years old.

I was completely unaware that University wore those colours. Thanks for the learnings! It might explain why the two University teams in the Amateurs are Uni Blues and Uni Blacks.

Ho hum, yet another regulation win. First time in our long history that we've won a game with a kick after the siren and some form of poetic justice served given how Max missed a similar match-winning chance against Geelong a couple of years ago.

No. There are alcohol issues as well and she's permanently legless.

Eishold revealed years later that the occasion got the better of him and he became so nervous and uptight that his legs turned to jelly.

The only thing that I find slightly odd about that terrific painting is the club jumpers depicted on Wills' blanket. It was clearly before the time of GC and GWS, but there are 17 jumpers portrayed. Port Adelaide gets two mentions with both their black/teal number plus the prison bars version. Was this an oversight or a deliberate thing, Webber?

Two draws in one season for Hawthorn. Can't imagine that would happen very often.

I come from a family of failed stage magicians. I have a half-sister.

It's not quite as innocent as it seems as it's a shortened version of the rhyming slang "dropkick and punt".
