Good to have you back Salo!

Interesting decisions

Got a cold but I'm here friends. GO DEES!

I'm not for one second suggesting you're old, but was this the time when beer cans were steel and much stronger so you could make a platform to stand on out of them? My dad was at the 66 grand final and all I ever heard about that game was how he did this 😄

I'd say so. Might go on a run and finish 6th or 7th, possibly win a final then go out. That's how it's tracking.

Yeah a bag would be nice

Why don't they put time back on the clock when they call back a bounce? Another fundamental flaw of the game.

Cameron is playing like its his jubilee

No Stewart, no Geelong

My last post will self destruct if we get done on QB 😝

I definitely have a competitive dislike for other clubs but at the end of the day I love the game above all. Any opposition fan who buys a club membership and loves the game as much as I do is ok with me.

Absolutely love it

Couldn't possibly agree more. It can be hard to stay humble in these times and we all deserve to enjoy having a bigger head at the moment but I always like to remember that there's 17 other team in this competition with equal interest in winning the major prize and we don't have a monopoly over the competition. I think I just saw too many Richmond fans turn into these gruesome creatures. Pleased to hear this story, it's ok to be confident, even a bit arrogant at times but always stay respectful.

Still pretty down about that one but I would like to have a bit of a rant about my experience from Sunday morning: The Imperial is the venue of choice for Liverpool fans but the only chance of getting in there on nights like this is by getting there at 11pm on Sat night with no option to leave and come back during the night. I could have done this but with 6-7 hrs to pass in a pub the options are to either have a few frothies and chat which is the equivalent of getting on it at 7am on Grand Final Day or go easy and play checkers or something. Beer Deluxe was my next choice as I went there in 2019 and it was great but they were not open so settled on The Crafty Squire. Got in at about 3am with 2 hrs to kick off and found a good spot downstairs. With about 45 mins to kick off all Liverpool fans are told to go upstairs, essentially if you were wearing any kind of gear you needed to get the heck out of there and go upstairs and they were a bit authoritative and pushy about it. Little strange but ok fair enough. Went upstairs and somehow snagged a reasonable spot again which was good. The darl went to go and get an espresso martini and the guy at the bar gave a bunch of attitude. “I’m way too busy to make cocktails sorry” he replied while handing out cans and pulling the odd beer as the extent of his duties. Didn’t seem to be a problem downstairs but again, fair enough. But what got me was the next thing. For whatever reason they decided to absolutely blare the audio volume of the pre match and the game, this was serious loudness. I go to quite a few music gigs and this was literally giving me a headache, to the point where I didn’t even care about what was happening in the game. I’m someone who tries to protect my hearing whenever necessary and I would have given anything to have my ear plugs at that time. A lot of us asked if they could turn it down a notch, they said they didn’t know how. By half time we decided we just couldn’t take it anymore and headed off to watch the second half at Fed Square, it was freezing cold but anything was better than that debacle. Needless to say I won’t be going back there to watch football. I know hospitality has done it real tough but if the question every week is how to get people back out in the city you really don’t have to do a lot, the bare minimum will do. Rant is over!

It will essentially be like having two Superbowl mornings in one year, more than happy with that!

Watched it last night, well worth it. Good on Tayla for doing this.

So it's place of birth not place of pathway? Edit: Pathway.

Bangin match up, I'd be keen.

Essendon should be F-

Don't worry @Sydee just a joke. I like Sydney 😛

The system works, sort of..

I'm just gonna piggy back off this by saying I also has a dream two days ago where we were losing this week and on TV the graphic was coming up about the last time Melbourne lost 2 games in a row so it felt sort of real that we were about to be beaten. Although we were wearing Hawthorn coloured jumpers, so it was slightly less real.

The wing is always a difficult one to select for, players you think aren't suited for it can excel with a lot of training (Brayshaw) then there's guys you think could be good fits but don't end up quite right for it. It's definitely a spot that needs a lot of positional training through pre season in my view.

For sure, thanks for the tip RPFC.
