Fork 'em

Whenever we needed something this year it was Oliver that got us rolling near every time. He's a machine and his will to win is off the charts. I don't even care he's hack kick any more. Gawns had a quiet year and Tracs in and out of the game. By rights all things being equal Oliver should lead our side in the voting easily.

Swans landed Franklin after a flag and Richmond landed Lynch after theirs. And we're looking at Gunston .... Please. Aim abit forken higher. Get some young hungry gun that wants to play for premierships. Not some injured old crock looking to pad out his retirement.

Considering Hipwood always causes us grief him being out is fantastic.

And this is what it sounded like.

The whole lot of them were absolutely red lining. None more so than Oliver. His will to win is off the charts.

The kids have gone past him. It's about the future now.

Considering most of our games will be watched live by neutrals I hope they all jump on our bandwagon and shake whatever stadium we play in.

Both supporters and players. After last nights game could you imagine the atmosphere at full house MCG next week. Playing finals infront of big crowds is what the players grow up dreaming of. Here we are top of the ladder and no-one has been able to go.

And surreal when it does.

Love this. The reaction in Slo-Mo. https://www.facebook.com/7AFL/videos/1066353584188233

I heard a couple commentators saying after Geelongs 2nd qr onslaught how great if would be if Hawkins manages to kick 8 for the game to give him the Coleman or something. I'm sittin' there thinking "Forken .... NO."

Woulda preferred a stadium full of Demons. Imagine.

That win will be chiselled into Melbourne FC folklore.

Nah,

Captains goals don't come much bigger than that.

Too late.

It's how we roll.

Gotta beat 'em all. Doesn't matter what order.

It will when 93% of those are Port supporters.

Nah, same helium voice. And when he got to the Dogs he would've had a few flags with the Dawks so I'd reckon his ego would have been right off the charts by then.

Wouldn't surprise me TBH. When I was in grade5 a couple young hawthorn players turned up at my school to conduct a football clinic. One in particular was doing all the talking and I remember thinking "Geez, this bloke loves himself. Talking like he's a superstar and I've never even heard of him." I was footy mad back then. Anyway, I took note of his name and it was Terry Wallace. That was about 1978. His 1st year.

I'm awaiting Meghan Markles statement myself.

I fear our own inacuracy infront of goal more than any anything or any-one getting hold of us. If the yips set in when the pressure comes on we're forked.

Reckon we look better ATM when Jacksons rucking TBH.

I saw the filth get flogged by the toigs in 1980 when Bartlett kicked 7. Could bring your eskies full of grog back then and standing room had to be there from about 8am to get a decent spot. Overlooked from the 1st tier many bloody conflicts in the standing room area behind the goals at the city end when it was all concrete. Pisshead filth and toigs fans who'd been drinking all day it was fair dinkum feral stuff.
