Love your avatar mate!

Is there anything more MFC than making you go to an expensive car dealership to collect your scarf? :p

If this was a thing then North would have rotated Mckernan and whoever their other ruckman was at FF in the 90s every game.

I remember after Ox's goal early on where he raised the ball he was just sounding off. "I reckon it sucks, I've seen so many games turned because of that shocking behaviour"

Love the question, these are the first ones that come to mind: - 2000 Qualifying Final last quarter against Carlton - 2005 Rd 21 last quarter against the Bulldogs and Jeff White's winning goal - 2006 Elimination final against the Saints - 2016 against the Hawks - 2017 against the Eagles. Might have been my favourite Sat night ever as a Dees fan -2018 against the Eagles. I still have this gane recorded in the Foxtel planner and watch that last quarter probably more than anything I've mentioned. One of the best days of my Melb supporting life. - 2018 finals. Also, I always had a really special place in my heart for certain pieces of play by us that involved a massive team lifting bump that flattened the opposition that leads to the team kicking a goal straight after (usually from about 15 - 20 years ago). I used to jump through the roof when this would happen. The 2 that come to mind are the Neitz one on Mccabe that effectively ended his career. And the Wrecker Whelan one on James Hird in the 2004 down the members wing that led to the Trapper goal.

Sounds great, just get the guy some more dental floss

Hard not to agree. There's people that still think this list has the highest ceiling out there, the question is where is the improvement coming from?

At least we can agree he's a jerk!

Pete Carroll annoys me too, I can't figure out why other than because it's Seattle. I like the Trojans. I think he's a good coach but I also kind of feel like he lucked out with Wilson. 2 failed head coaching stints and 2 x 7-9 Seattle seasons before RW got there. I did like Kam Chancellor though back when you could hit.

I hated the Rams growing up. They were easily our bitterist rivals. But then the greatest show on turf and that Superbowl run a few years ago, you wanted to hate them and did but they just looked so darn good doing it. It would have been like hating Barcelona in their prime. The Seahawks on the other hand is such a manufactured hatred, although the Harbaugh vs Carroll thing a few years back brought some feeling to it. Other than that it's just meh and they always beat us anyway.

Haha, latest chapter in my new book "How to make Gorg's blood boil" :p

This is the Dan Patrick interview yeah? Had a bit of a Mick Malthouse Carlton about it :p saying hes been sacked 400 times and 'we need to do better'. I say get the paperwork out and direct swap for Jimmy G.

I sure hope so 58er. Can only have faith!

It's different to what we usually hear from the usual 'get on with the job' Wilson we usually hear. Got that bumper deal just 12 months ago but the guy obviously wants to win. I also think Pete Carroll has gone a bit stale in his play calling in recent years, doesn't vary it up much. Does he trust Russell enough? Speculating of course.

I think you'll find it hard to find an admirer in this thread!

While it sounds a lot less silly than 6 months ago I'd still think it's not quite worth the punt. The point is though we are probably going to need cover at some point.

Ah who care about some article Gun to head I'd say we're finishing 10th this year. With a bit of luck we get a few more wins and make the 8 but I don't see anything higher than that. The fact that most of us still get extremely nervous when we face bottom 4 sides frightens me.

Seems that way for the first time in his career. Made it pretty clear he's unhappy with their line. Also belated thanks to @Macca for the comp. But not too much thanks because I never come close to winning!

I will definitely go if it's allowed. My concerns about health and safety are there but minimal. If it came down to limited numbers I'd be happy to 'job share' with other members 1 game on 1 game off if something like that was put in place.

A ripping pre season and now his opportunity is here as hopefully a silver lining to an injury scenario no-one hoped for. Gotta back him in.

Excuses are great for factors in just missing out on results, we tend to use them a lot though when we fall abysmally short of our targets.

Exactly. It's ok to admit you don't know enough or haven't done enough walking in someone else's shoes but to pretend you do or claim you get it perfectly is what riles people up. Eddie's words of "We are not a racist club, never have been and are far from it". It's just uneducated hogwash and no-one wants to hear it anymore.

Good to see this thread back in the big time.

RE: Shaw Barrett I loved his game too. Personally would have loved him to get MVP he really set the tone for the game and brought the heat to Mahomes time and time again. Historically though if you don't do something crazy like run a pick back for a touchdown you don't get a look in.

Never fear, we're bringing back Josh Rosen so we're all set :p
