Lever was the first name i thought of.
Second was McDonald.
Based purely on the language that seemed to be spiked with a bit of humour, I was thinking it had to be either Max or Gus (or both, operating in podcast mode).

Cringe when I see this in Adelaide.
That NZ dance thing too
Do you mean the Haka that the players do before the game starts? That’s a fantastic touch that adds to the build up to the start of a big game.

Full replay six times.

In total agreement.
In past years when my son and I were able to get down to Melbourne and attend training sessions, I always enjoyed a good chat with Saty… I expect his joy over winning the GF will be somewhat tempered by the retirement of his favourite player, Nev Jetta.
I hope he and his partner, or, as he would say, “lovely lady” (which she is, by the way), are surviving the pandemic/lockdown ok, and are at least, still reading these forums.

No, you’re not alone with that one. I am sooooo curious. It went on for quite a while and by the look on Fritta’s face it was like Maxy was saying something rather devilish. 😉
Yes, my thoughts exactly!

"Thanks, Bailey. That was good."
The word in his ear went on for quite a while and the grins were broad.

Every time I watch the replay (5 times so far) only one question springs to mind… what did Max say to Fritta after he kicked his 6th goal?
Am I the only one?

I was a little surprised that Gawn didn't get a free as the tackle was over the boundary line, but I think that in the wrap up, their humiliation is punishment enough.

I love how so many on Demonland whinged about the commentary being biased against the Dees, and the Dogs supporters were saying exactly the same, except they call it out as being biased against the Dogs.

I disagree with ALL of the above. The real turning point was before the opening bounce, when the Bulldogs ribbon slipped down to the bottom of the Premiership Cup’s handle as it was being moved from the back of the ute to the table.
That 100 to 7 point final 40 minutes wasn’t bad icing on the cake either.

Big fan of greg back in his day great player
Me too… he literally flew for the ball! So sad to hear of his passing, made worse in the knowledge that he won’t get to see the Dees (or the Dogs… he had a foot in each camp) win a flag.

Yeah… so it’s such a weird thing for him to say.

Just got the word - Jayden not the sub. You'd figure it's JJ.
Got word from where? Considering that the decision isn’t announced until one hour before the game, you must have an inside source?

I’m certain that Rob Sitch is a Demons supporter, but I’m sure I just saw him finish his American News segment on the ABC News channel, shouting “Go Dogs!!”… what’s with that??

I just noticed that Mansfield is anagram of Find Salem!!

Nice choice, ‘Stone.
Some Demon-infused offerings would be David Bridie’s bands, My Friend the Chocolate Cake, and Not Drowning Waving; and Mackenzie Theory fronted by Rob Mackenzie. TISM with Ron Hitler-Barassi out front would also provide “suggestion of Demon”.
Rob, although living in LA, is a member here; we've been to a couple of games together. Other musically oriented Demon supporters are David Bland who some may remember from both the Go!! Show and Kommotion (he also attended games with Rob and myself) and the drummer from the Huxton Creepers, Archie Law.

""Certainly Tom did leave early, but with the blessing of the club and with the blessing of the players." - a fairly ambiguous statement there 😁

That Shanghai trip was said to be the beginning of Liam Jurrah's drinking. He kicked the winning goal after taking a monster speccie and the team partied hard. Was also the infamous Gawn-yawn over the sleeping HWMNBN that supposedly cemented his desire to leave MFC
I hadn't heard that Jurrah started drinking on that trip, but yes, I was aware of Gawn's Yawn. HWMNBN had already returned home, before the game took place... he wasn't even at the previous day's training session.

He did things with such ease and grace
I'd argue that his marking in general play was not so much grace as, because of the way he would land with his legs straight, a hyper-extension waiting to happen. But a brilliant, naturally gifted player. I saw him win the demo game against the Lions in Shanghai, pretty much off his own boot.

I'm a little surprised this hadn't been posted already...
