What date is this account, WJ? Was it in the footy season? (The origins of the “Going to the Snow” narrative?)

Dawn of a new Era - Paul Guerra article 18.10.2025
That’s one way of looking at it. On the other hand other clubs weren’t interested in taking Mr May. I’m just hoping that he’s spending his off season getting himself into as ripped physical condition as he can before presenting on day 1 of preseason.

Why Petracca and Oliver never won a Brownlow
The game where he did kick the winning goal but it was wrongly deemed to have been touched?

Not sure about that, F and T. I thought he was eligible to stand again.

The Greatest Demon of All Time?
) Yeah, and another factor was probably that characteristically for Barass he was ahead of his time, and in the one-umpire era he often took it upon himself to help out with the officiating by giving advice to the umpires, and usually not with sugar-coated delivery! He wasn’t your exquisitely gifted exponent of the skills of the game like Tulip, but was a force of nature around the ball. You can see it in the YouTube videos that are around; he was fitter, stronger and more intense in the contest than everyone else, but also was footy smart and made the most of his skills. He’s rightly in the mix in the discussion of Greatest Demon in terms of team outcomes - and team outcomes are what we all crave.

Demons Ponder New Strategy Boss
Isn’t it the CEO’s role to be in charge of strategy? Why does he need another person to be between him and the Head of Football?

When will Melbourne break these embarrassing records?
I think those 3 might be all end-of-season conclusions to their gigs, and was Judge a resignation rather than a sacking? A mid-season sacking after a thumping win is probably in a category of its own.

Saturday is the 40th anniversary of Leigh Matthews giving Neville Bruns a busted jaw behind the play. Amazing vision on YouTube; Matthews himself ends up staggering off the field with a bloodied face and helped by trainers after the subsequent melée. Apparently it was 20yo Steve Hocking who took on the role of equalizer. Lethal was charged by police, deregistered as a player for 4 weeks by the then VFL, but still managed to get amongst the goals in his final 9 games, including bags of 6 and 4.
