If not for standout games from Fritta, Trac and maybe Bont couldāve jagged the Norm Smith. Players have done less in GF and got one.

How did you become a Demon?
Grew up out east and Hawks had a following. Thereās colour photo of me wearing Hawthorn jumper early 60s. March 1965 and weāre in town, MSD (Melbourne Sports Depot) Elizabeth Street. Mum had canny eye for bargain, nodded towards a promotional basket of guernseys at 10/6d, saying, āRadar needs new footy jumperā. Guess which one fit. The rest is history. At least I came on board at dawn of our darkest era. Younger brother remains a Hawk. He canāt quite remember all the Premierships heās seen. The only happy fact out of all this is I was one size too small for the StKilda jumper.

2 weeks in a row sides get done by the Goal Umps
Can someone please refresh my memory on how MFC were screwed in 1998 finals series after beating Crows by 10 goals in MCG final? AFL later admitted they got our āseedingā wrong - MFC shouldāve had easier opponent/no interstate travel or something. Couldnāt believe it at the time. Donāt feel sorry for Crows.

Agree with a lot of OP post but what goes around comes around for Adelaide - Leigh Colbert mark MFC wrongfully handicapped after thrashing them in 98 Final - AFL later admitted they wronged us.
