It's looking likely that I may have to do the same thing. Sucks because I've been getting really used to watching YouTube post game streams live. Bugger

@Gorgoroth Guess we both need to get our dukes ready to stick up.

This game was absolutely spectacular, some truly amazing quarterback play. Was really hoping the Bills would get it. Watch out Bengals.

Yeah exactly, he's got a tendency to get in his own way. No doubting his offensive mind though.

To an extent yes, but I still see the same occasional boneheaded Kyle come out to play. Even yesterday some of his calls for horrendous. Throwing on 1st down multiple times when we weren't getting diddly squat in the air. st was to persist with the running game, even if it was just 3 rards and a cloud of dust type stuff. No-one is scared of Jimmy throwing the football at the moment and it seems the only throws he's capable of are over the middle to Kittle or Samuel running slants or post routes. Then there's the genius of decidng to have our left tackle run motion on a 4th and 1 because, you know, it worked so well against the Cowboiys last week. The Packers D did a really good job of stopping that but we really telegraphed it. Have a lot of respect for Kyle Shanahan and he's a great mind. He's gotta be right up there when it comes to drawing up all sorts of running plays but to be honest it's because of that ability that I kind of expect a certain level of success in the running game. Sometimes it feels like he's either holding back or doing god knows what.

Pretty tough to say really. Playing the Rams in the title game is like us having to come up aginst the Cats for the 3rd time ofthe year in the Prelim. But in this case I'm a bit of a sucker for the more you play someone and beat them consecutively the more the other team could knock you off. Good to see the years of MFCSS have filtered over into other sports. On the other hand, Bucs and Brady. Would be a cool narrative to see him and Jimmy go head to head. But if you were drawing opposition QBs to platy in this game out of a hat Brady would be the short straw surely? Edge to wanting to play the Rams but only for a game in Cal and familiarity. PS: Watching the ganme later but I did see Rams staerted well.

The days of Staubach and Pearson when the phrase was coined are looking a bit prehistoric Stein! Even the Jimmy J Aikman time is looking pretty rear mirror right now! Haha just joking around, been a real long time for us too of course.

By the way, I kept joking to my Cowboys friends that if we were somehow able to trade Jimmy for Dak Prescott during the week I would have made it happen lol.

As long as you support a world where the Cowboys never make a Super Bowl again I’m good! Obviously I’m just joking Cowboy fans, live and let live!

Suits me, happy for them to go in with Jerry and Mike again bring it on!

Unbelievable, we were down and out with the wind squarely in our faces (literally too because it was bloody cold). I really don’t know how to analyse that game and what happened to be honest. Packers came out barnstorming on offense but then committed to the run which was getting reasonable results. I felt like we could get lit up with Rodgers-Adams at any moment but I think we did a good job in coverage even without Ambrey Thomas. I don’t know if I’d say GB or Aaron choked. Our special teams made 2 big plays. Take those away and GB win I say. If anyone is a choker though it’s Jimmy G, on a winning side :p

That’s unbelievable. And stupid because I lost the tip

Bills were incredible. No mean feat to come into Foxboro but Josh Allen looked like he was playing flag football.

Has 186 been laid to rest?
That's exactly why I put the question out there WCW, because I reckon this forum would be split right down the middle. I personally said yes because at the time it would have given me some comfort knowing that it would at least happen in my lifetime. Yeah it was humiliating and traumatising, but I'd already been humiliated and traumatised plenty before 186. On the million dollars thing, I don't think there's a better way to learn the lesson of money only being money than being handed a million dollars. The only reprieve with that scenario is that we'd be allowed to make the GF again. What if someone said a million dollars for MFC to never win in your lifetime? The guy offering that may not have ear drums left after presenting that offer.

The media was talking about an over reliance on OBJ. As a neutral I thought they could have tossed it his way more, just the 5 targets. But Stafford was hell bent on going to him on that last play, perhaps that was one of those McVay calls.

He's in the category of very good but can you trust him 100%. Then again there's very few in the league you can do that with.

Love it! Was in Anglesea myself over new years it really felt good to strut around in a Dees tee in a location other than Melb but still recognisable!

Has 186 been laid to rest?
I still find it hard to believe the list fell apart so quickly. The list was ready to take off after 2010 yet in Neeld's Open Mike he reckons when he got to the club end of 2011 it was a mess. Not sure about that.

POSTGAME: GRAND FINAL vs Western Bulldogs
I personally loved how my friends were giving it to me for going to one cup holding event and the main one on Dec 5, this was apparently over doing it. Love how easy it was to forget we were in lock down around GF as well.

Has 186 been laid to rest?
If someone told you on that fateful day on July 30 2011 not to worry, we'll be winning a flag in 10 years time. Would you have taken it? Tough one and easy to say in hindsight but yes.

I agree that you won't win a SB with Stafford at QB. He just doesn't do it enough in pressure moments although he did make a few ripper throws to Cupp in this game. Fangio would be a big get, loved his work with us.
