Yep, next captain is Lever for mine. Just let Trac be Trac. No need to add additional pressure to his game. Lever is a born leader.

Yep, that's it. I was nervous because I knew we were the better team. As the game ended, I simply relaxed. -

Being able to share it with others wasn't what made it hollow for me, but that was my sister's reasoning. I think I was hollow because I'd dreamt of a Melbourne premiership for 34 years and when we'd finally won one, I struggled for a new reference point or goal. -

I watched this section of the game 5 or 6 times last night haha. Bontempelli was off for the first Petracca clearance, but was then head to head with him for the rest of that patch. He couldn't stop him. It was glorious. -

Seeing my sister yesterday, we both said it was anti climatic. Quite incredible really, given we've dreamed of this for so long. I felt strangely hollow after it. -
Hope we can convert a few West Aussies for longer than just this finals series. 70,000 members next year is a real possibility. Reckon we'll make $2 mill+ profit now too. Pity it wasn't a $6mill year, but we've got a great chance over the next 5 years to make large profits consistently and strengthen our existing balance sheet with this team.

Having rewatched it a second time, I reckon I might have been a little harsh on my man Clarry. 10 tackles, a goal, a bunch of clearances and 33 is a bloody good game in a GF too. -
I hope that muppet Buckenara doesn't get another gig in the Murdoch press this year. Hasn't got a clue.

Completely agree. As she said, we'd kicked 1.6 for our last 7 scoring shots and we needed to kick one to settle the nerves. And bang. Fritsch gets his goal from Harmes. Daisy's commentary was spot on all night. We were playing too safe in the midfield because we were losing contest behind the ball. -
Long time critic, but he's gone up in my estimates. I knew he'd be better in finals, but his ball use in the last 4 weeks has improved out of sight. Well done, Jack. A premiership player. Time to redo that team of the century soon. He's surpassed his old man. 😉

I'm all about the list management mate. 😀 Sustained success.

That flag is going to be massive for list management. You watch the FAs and the stars line up now. Don't be surprised if Cerra nominates Melbourne in the coming days. Ralph is a muppet.

Happens regularly. Bulldogs, Richmond and now us. -

Yeah, I don't doubt Clarry's hit from Bontempelli took a bit out of him. Said so at the time. Also said he was likely to get off the chain at some point and sure enough he worked his way back into the game like the champion that he is. And don't forget Viney. I've been a long time critic, but he's a brilliant finals player. -

I think Rivers had him at stages too. -

I thought Clarry struggled for quite a bit of the game actually. Started well, but was smothered 2 or 3 times in the first quarter and then struggled to get into the game in in second and most of the third quarter until we went berserk. I said earlier in the year Oliver was a better player. I was wrong. They're just different players. Yesterday though, Petracca was the Norm Smith medallist by quite a way IMO. Fritsch for his goal tally was a distant second. Not only did Petracca kick big goals, including the first to settle some nerves after some early misses, he was so explosive from stoppage at the end of that third quarter. Given the stakes, Petracca's game is the best individual Melbourne performance I think I've ever seen. -

Can't wait for the Demonland podcast. @binman and @george_on_the_outerwill say I told you so and Andy won't know what to do with himself. I still can't quite believe it's really happened. -

Watching the replay, we made Daniel look like a clown in the second half. Our mids were breaking away from him repeatedly. -

How courageous was the Bowey v Weightman match up? Well done, Bowser. You killed him. -

Definitely a Melbourne supporter. Last saw him in the Qantas Lounge in 2018 post preliminary final in Perth. He was also donned in his MFC scarf on Fox the other day with Mike Sheehan. -

I cried all the way through this. Today is going to be super emotional. -

Fader is a great track. Love it. As West Aussies, pity they're not playing Optus. I figure they're probably not a band anymore. -

As an obsessive Bond fan, John Barry always calms me. Multiple Bond scores will very likely settle the nerves today. -

This made me cry. Cuts deep. Come on redlegs, you can do this.
