Jaded No More

Prey tell where Gray would fit in? Who's spot does he take in the starting 22? Melksham who is much fitter and younger can't get a game and is being told to explore his options. I know Gray on his day is a much better player, but he's done. His body is absolutely shot.

I doubt we will ever watch 4 more pivotal games to turn the fortunes of a club in our lifetime. Those were 4 performances of a club destined to achieve greatness. I doubted it, but looking back, it was always meant to be ours!

None of those won a flag and a Norm Smith on the weekend! In fact, the only Norm Smith medalist on the above list is a guy not a single recruiter had pegged above Scully or Trengove.

Love that for me Dogs fans at 8pm- The flag is ours Dogs fans at 8:02pm- What happened while I went to pee?

Dangerfield will go alright for Casey I guess.

Elite midfielder about to hit his prime has offers from rival clubs. Never heard such explosive news. How many desperate social media friends requests is Peter Bell sending Jackson as we speak?

Sparrow’s goal very underrated. Kicks it from 52m off one step. Elite!

Saints fans. You gotta feel for them. Imagine watching that game knowing this guy could have been theirs. Ouch!

So I found out today Mark McGowen is a Freo supporter. I always imagined him to be a West Coast fan as he comes across as arrogant and someone who loves to boo an interstater. However I now understand why he’s so insane. Supporting Freo will drive anyone to the brink. It’s not easy.

I hope we employ him in some capacity. A development role with Casey perhaps? I know Matty Whelan already does the indigenous relations, but Nev just seems like such a wonderful role model. I really would hope we can get him doing something so he isn’t lost to the club. He’s too special.

I’m so out of the loop with winning anything that I had no idea that was even a thing. Wish they had golden spoon jumpers so I was familiar with these things.

Geelong will go again. Please and lol.

59. McKay 58 Floppy Elbows Hawkins 62 Absolutely elite from a medium forward.

I know! I bought a number plate today. If we win next year do I just replace it with other one? I am really hoping they release memorabilia with our indigenous jumper design from this year. My favorite jumper of all time!

Thank the lord we backed ourselves to keep him. No Oliver no flag this year.

A solid reminder that nothing in footy can be taken for granted. A good reminder for the players that it comes and goes in the blink of an eye. Like the Dog’s 19 point lead.

Goody said on The Couch they have to finalize everything by Wednesday. Brutal but it is what it is.

Nibbler for me. At three quarter time I thought the Dogs can still go on a run here. They kicked 6 on the trot and they can do it again. And I thought they’d come out firing. Nibbler put it beyond them.

Nothing like a full bodied Shiraz post flag. Hahahaha so Melbourne 😂

Disagree. “Your hair has held up immaculately”

Hunter is a grub. Happy he played a poor game. When he dropped the ball on the wing in the last quarter I literally lol’ed.

Was it the Petracca interview being interrupted by walky talkies at the back of the pub? So emotional.

One of my all time favorites. Held us together down back for years with sheer determination and some shoulder tape. As brave as they come. As loyal as they come. An exemplary human being on and off the field. Did so much for so many, including Kosi and countless indigenous players before him. A great of our club and a massive part of this success.

Another vital cog to our success. Was the bull protecting the young cubs. Everyone walked taller with him around. I absolutely think GC should grab him. He can do a lot of good for a young team needing a brute force.
