If you're gonna fantasise at least let us get the 4peat sheesh

Remember when we peaked too early? Remember when we were May champions? Remember when we hadn't played anyone yet? Remember when we finished top and won the bloody flag???!!!!!

Anyone know where the best place is to get frames for these posters? What size frame do you need? I've got the weg posters from 1900 through to 1948 which have been sitting in storage waiting until I can put them up with pride now need to get the 55-64 ones to complete the collection and want to frame them all up on the wall in my study. I bought the block mounted Knight poster but want to frame the rest.

Hmm if he is contracted then it wouldn't surprise me to see him back next year. TMac was asked to look elsewhere last year too. He is decent depth and can help bring some of the kids through at Casey at the worst. If we're already letting go/retiring Jones, Jetta, AVB, Lockhart, Nietschke and one or two others then that is a lot of turnover without having a great draft hand or too many players earmarked to come in via trade.

@binman I couldn't agree with you more about how history will be written - I said it (or at least thought it) earlier in the season that if we were to go on and win the flag people would look back in hindsight and say "of course". We were far and away the best team especially after Footscray dropped to 5th after the last 3 rounds, we lost 4 games by a combined 40 points or so plus had one draw, only two of those games were to other finalists and in the end we romped it home in each of the finals (the QF less so but still an emphatic win).

Just put it on while I sit down to commence work - best intro ever Andy!! How the hell can I work now, I'm tearing up, shaking. I [censored] LOVE THIS CLUB TOO!!

Who gave Caleb Daniel 3 votes, Goody or Bevo? Goody feeling a bit generous? Or Bevo taking the [censored] with favouring his own players?

Best I've ever seen - they will need to add to the tally if they want to be considered the best of all time though.

Lever seems to be earmarked internally as the next Captain but things do change.

I think it was Norm Smith who used to say in a perfect game of footy you should be able to kick a goal every 6 seconds. Ruckman taps to rover, rover kicks to full forward, full forward goals. We may not have kicked a goal every 6 seconds on Saturday but at the end of the 3rd we gave it a bloody good shake!!

I'm tearing up just thinking about it. It will be glorious.

I had a cheeky tenner on Demons over 40 points at $5.50 - also had a tenner on each of Petracca, Oliver, Gawn, Viney for the Norm so my $75 return paid for the block mounted premiership poster I bought haha

I've still got a lot of life left in me (hopefully) - there's plenty of other things I want to experience befoer I could say my life is complete (seeing my kids grow up, growing old with my wife, grandkids). In terms of AFL we still have a mountain to climb in my eyes; 16 - Essendon, Carlton 15 - Collingwood 13 - MELBOURNE, Richmond, Hawthorn Still 4 to go and hopefully at the bloody G!!

And that he did

Well, I still think he's not quite our best ever but I'm no longer laughing at the question and the argument is there to be made so I can't say it's not close. Won us the minor premiership with a goal after the siren down at Geelong, tore the Cats apart in the Prelim with a 4 goal burst in the 3rd, lifted the cup for the first time since Barassi in '64 and last, but certainly not least, has fostered a fantastic culture among the playing group, a group who genuinely seem to love each other, the club and the fans and who are living the "esprit de corps" motto. Mea culpa

Nothing comes close

They also refused to set up with a defensive sweeper in the middle when they were getting obliterated out of the centre. Fool me once...

Another thing to come out of the footy show is that Goodwin definitely had a speech prepared which he didn't get the opportunity to present because that absolutely moron Basil Zempilas stuffed his cue and didn't allow him to get in front of the mic! He also didn't allow Embley to name the Norm Smith medallist. What a tool.

Same here HJ, I was jumping around celebrating each goal and high fiving, hugging etc but at the end it was more a sense of relief and shock, no tears or anything. The tears started to well today watching the footy show and the replay as it started to sink in that we finally did it! Seeing "2021" added to our list of premierships which has been eternally set my entire life as "1900, 1926.......1964" is surreal but I'm starting to get used to it.

That goal he kicked off one step from 50 with 4 dogs players running at him from every corner of the compass 👏

Abso-bloody-lutely!!!

Gawn in 60 seconds 😁

Petracca also said on the footy show the players were told to slow it down and run down the clock and the midfield group all thought "f that, we're on fire let's see if we can get a couple more"

When Bont kicked that goal to put them 19 up I was worried. They seemed to be beating us in ground ball all over the field and had kicked 8 of the last 9 goals. Our small forwards seemed unsighted and we looked fumbly. I look forward to listening to your analysis on the podcast and rewatching the replay with this in mind.

Surely, surely your mfcss is now cured, right? 😉
