  1. Rusty I didn’t know where else to put this but do you know how many teams have one a flag from outside the 8 from previous season? Not many I assume.
  2. Agree! Collingwood also tried to destroy Nothing Else Matters. Works for Liverpool and that’s about it ( and I’m not a fan of theirs) otherwise it’s cringe
  3. Hell Ain’t A Bad Place To Be 😎
  4. Sparrow was in there a bit
  5. A club great. After being delisted and re-listed I can’t remember him being beaten once against the best small forwards in the game. Thanks for your service to our great club Nev! Hope it continues off field.
  6. Yeah just like that, life is different and I will die a happy man! BUT like others, as much as I enjoyed watching with my 2 young boys, I want to experience this feeling with other diehards at The G. The emotion would be out of this world. We’ll get our chance too!
  7. Is there any way of avoiding the $12 postage fee for the $4 premiership poster thru Herald Sun??
  8. It's Adelaide, i have a mate in the inner sanctum . Big loss for us, hope we've copied his training manual!
  9. Hassa Mann seems to think it is, and he would know better than most! First flag for me but best team in my 50+ years by a long way.
  10. BUMP I know there is a thread on those no longer with us to enjoy this but this bloke deserves his own. It’s just so cruel he isn’t experiencing how we all feel today. At Marks funeral which was adorned with red n blue scarves , flags and our theme song, I took the mick out of Marks dress sense and in particular his go to outfit of faded 10 year old Dees polo and loud board shorts that clashed something shocking. The next day I visited his children and to my surprise they gave me a gift. It was Marks outfit. I was speechless. I made a promise to them that I will wear it every single game I watch from home which thanks to lockdown turned out to be most of them. ( I would not wear it in public for fear of ridicule) It felt like my suit of armour, he was our 19th man, and all season long I had this feeling of inevitability of what was about to happen. My first call post match was to his 15yo daughter who has continued Marks sponsorship of Steven May, she is such a passionate, tragic Demon like her Dad. I bawled my eyes out. It’s rare to be so damn happy and heartbroken at the same time. In my speech I promised Mark that when we win that flag I’ll come to where he is resting and we’ll celebrate. He’s in their lounge in an urn wearing his Dees cap. Can’t wait to go to their house, chuck the replay on and share it with them! This is for you markc ❤️💙
  11. 1st: Nibbler Most: Fritta NS: Viney Margin: Dees 33 points
  12. If you haven't seen the video the club put up with messages from all sorts of past players you need to see it. Surprising not to see Neale but I reckon they'll show them a speech from the great man pre game! Could be nothing more inspirational than hearing from him!
  13. Some great reading here guys n girls. Several others have mentioned 88 and 00 which I attended both mostly with hope and in reality we were no chance. This is completely different. It's not hope it's expectation. We've never seen a better team in more than half a century. I heard Hassa Mann this week say the preliminary final was the best he'd ever seen a Melbourne team play and that includes when he played in our dominant 50-60s era! Dogs will struggle against our relentless pressure which is a sight to behold. This is our time and we all deserve this. Enjoy and savour it. I've forewarned my 2 primary school boys who I'll be watching at home alone with that I'll likely be bawling when we win!
  14. Long but well worth the listen. What a legend of the club that guy is! Could’ve been one of the all time greats of the game!
  15. Not sure where to put this question but here is as good as any. There were a few of us that couldn’t watch The Brownlow as it wasn’t streamed they 7+ . Many assured we will be able to watch the GF if you had 7+ and Apple TV device but should we be concerned if it still doesn’t come up in a search on the app?? Worried!
  16. He might not be the only one getting wood on Saturday night…🤓
  17. Cool, we have same set up it seems. If it’s available thru appletv I’m good!
  18. I’m same. If you figure out if we can watch the GF or not let me know! Filthy I can’t watch this tonight
  19. Yep me too! Only just realised. If the GF is the same I’m stuffed!
  20. I am on record on here saying that he could become the best midfielder I’ve ever seen in my 50 plus years of supporting the Dees. I think he’d played 3 or 4 games at the time. He hasn’t let me down.
  21. He did sing Sherry!! I’m hoping that’s Cerras nickname?? The riddles are back!
