Since 1984 - only three “breakthrough” flag sides backed up crows 97/98 Lions 2001/2 Goodwin was there Its about a one in 12 year event if we include 84/85 Bombers I thought early this year MFC got a few games against injury/report weakened sides. Freo, St K, Geel, GWS

I believe Clyde Laidlaw holds football’s most treasured statistic* 120 games, 5 Premierships * min qualification required to exclude the Marlion Picketts Come on down, Jake Bowey

Recency bias, no one alive can recall any players before 1920s

Some how I get fb updates from GFC. They’ve picked up a 30 year old Hawk reject and shunted a 20 something kid to Freo. Their fans are loving it. They see it as an honour they’ve made so many Prelims (never mind the losses) GFCSS - long may it continue

I believe George Lakes has a Physio therapy business, Station Street, Moorabbin

R23 at Geelong - indicating to Lever where to put it. Then our season went nuclear

Max and Gawn there from when Roos/PJ arrived

In that crazy 30 second blitz in the third - not the Fritta/BBB Combo - after Oliver’s goal, Petracca only half a tackle away from drilling a fourth. Immediately before siren. Happy with the three.

Leaves BBB one out. Fritta free to roam. Brings it to ground for Kossie/Spargo/ANB Defenders can choose to leave him or man up Gawn/Jackson floating forward

Adelaide, Collingwood maybe

Gotta go down with Nuggets call of Australian Men’s Relay Moscow Gold Gold to Australia Gold

In the final Q, Petracca heavily tackles ? Hunter and wins a free in our D50. Games over, CP runs by, gives Hunter consoling pat

Hope it’s same team. NO CHANGE

“Max Gawn, Melbourne’s last Premiership captain” Hopefully next

Also, when I hear or see “Premiers sign Saints Midfielder” I think who is going to West Coast or Hawthorn now. When US President changes or PM, takes me a while to adjust, too

And this - no longer an asterisk for 1958 Growing up only ever saw smug Tiger/Hawk copy

This too

To see these years listed is counter to every intuition I have. Kinda alternative reality. Supporter since 1965

Only commenting on the 3rd. Keep getting drawn to it …for some reason. Good to see all the little things

Followed MFC since early 65, so kinda full journey. 57 year wait. Not only 1. have we won, still can’t quite reconcile 2. the way we won 3. the magnitude of the win

Yep, Viney In everything in the third. Not only the reverential final minute. All quarter, crash, bash, thump forward, thump a Dog

Interchange is a 70s or 80s invention. Was 19 th or 20th man. Once off - stayed off. Radar would get his run as 19th man. Be taken off for 20th man

Haha - so I’m not only one who receives that type of soliciting
