monoccular

You must be too young to remember Dixon, Adams, Keneally 👹

All above observations noted. It will be hard to break into a Premiership team that has Spargo and Pickett going so well AND an absolute disaster of a feeder competition even without Covid. What was it, 21 teams (so multiple byes) of very variable qualities, made up of many part time footballers who have real jobs yet are expected to travel interstate for days on end. We need to restore the V as in Victorian FL (with an even number of teams so no byes) and let the other states organise their own state competitions.

Are the current trees non- indigenous elms? If so I would have thought that the woke Melbourne City Council and all the local Greenies would support their removal and replacement with local indigenous ones, which could be placed around the expanded oval.

Only once a week?? Too easily satisfied.

No way … their ground is pint sized.

The big guy could turn out to be OK 🙄

I felt pretty despondent …. left the room realizing that I wasn’t wearing my scarf ….. put it on and ….. bang, bang, bang (and repeat) …. so you can all thank me for the turnaround. 100 points to 7 with the said scarf on ❤️💙❤️❤️💙

Mmmmm .... no regrets from me. The only regret would have been spending all our petrol tickets in the Brisbane game and not being able to come back in the GF. And, speaking of the comeback, of course in retrospect (not good for the heart at the time) would grinding the Dogs from the start with a progressive 3,6 9, 12 goal gap have been as invigorating as having to come back and slaughter them?

Certainly there were many (myself included) who were disappointed that other than theGC game we didn’t really smash anyone during the H&A season, but I seem to remember hearing / reading somewhere that this was part of the grand plan, pacing ourselves and letting go come finals time. The way the season panned out this could well be the case.

Just out of interest, what did the Crows get with the swapped picks we gave for Lever (and Petty as someone alluded to earlier)?

Given his stature he must have always as a junior, and far more so at the top level, needed ‘footy smarts’, courage, tackling ability and pressure as well as his obvious disposal skills, and he has shown us particularly in 2021 that he has all of these attributes. Great season Charlie, and well rewarded. Many thanks.

,,,and so would we

Ir maybe in 10 years Pendlebury may be recognised as just an undersized Luke Jackson.

Sure thing - but we could have had a really dominant finals series had we had decent facilities 🙄🙄❤️💙❤️💙🏆👹

Nearly three weeks on - please tell me I am not dreaming. Maybe I should watch the second half again (10th - 15th time) just to make sure. 🥰😍❤️💙❤️💙❤️💙❤️💙😮

JT. Eternal thanks for what you have contributed to the MFC and our drought breaking list. You should be incredibly proud of what you have achieved - we all are here.

Not really relevant to the thread title, but what a difference a successful season makes (other than Melksham’s lack of pressure)

Please, God, don't. Their arrogance deserves the proper reward, preferably by the Demon, if not the Devil.

I personally would give it a break. Sparrow has done #32 proud and I am sure Vagg would agree.

Lots of tee shirts, but are there any polo shirts (collared)?

Good observation durango. Seeing Goodwin on the bench calmly chatting to players as they interchange, without the antics we see from some in the box (🙀😮for one), shows complete confidence in his lieutenants to convey what is important but without the constant static.

Composure and skills are just fantastic. At quarter time he looked like a Norm Smith medalist, and the rest of his game was really good though not quite as much as Q1 - but that set up the win.

Brilliant I hope that perhaps Ron, and ND can be the official flag raisers when we unfurl the our 2021 Premiership flag.

Demonstone - can you tell us which year / age group this photo came from? An absolute ripper. PS. And which event.
