POSTGAME: GRAND FINAL vs Western Bulldogs
Eliminating mark and kick, the choices are: a) When he was the only one who knew the ball was touched and bounded through traffic to kick on the run; b) Bursting out of the centre to kick from 60 metres on the marginally more elegant run; or c) Outmuscled ruck in the pocket and kicked the goal even he did not think would go through. Incidentally, well done team. Few on line but 99 pages and rising.

POSTGAME: GRAND FINAL vs Western Bulldogs
In a valiant attempt to get this to 100 pages by New Year's Day, when did you know we had won the GF? For me it was that moment in the PF, so far ahead in the 3rd quarter but Gus and Hibbo were madly diving in the Geelong goal square to deny even a point. Then I thought 'they will not let anybody beat them'.

Sitting in the open so have joined the raspberry faced squad. Just need a few bruises and it'll match my red and blue polo.

Consolation for the level 4 party team - My Level 1 seats will look decidedly less flash if it rains. Watching the long range forecast closely.

Farewell Shannon Byrnes
This will cause a major re-ranking among the table tennis players at the club. I'm with those who, sentimentally, would like to see Jonesie in the role. Imagine the reception when he runs onto the ground as runner in a final.

Welcome to Demonland: Taj Woewodin
there are browser extensions that can get around paywalls. I use Extreme Paywall Bypasser. It pays to turn it off when not needed as it can interfere with sites you have a paid subscription to.

Welcome to Demonland - Pick 17
Jason Taylor and Tim Lamb are absolute artists. Several years in a row trading up the draft. Most recently for Bowser and Laurie and before that for Kozzy and Rivers. I recall Taylor's excitement 'we're gonna get the Riv; we're gonna get the Riv' before the cheeseboard appeared.

Prediction: We will have won the most VFL / AFL premierships by the end of this decade.
Mods: should the MFCSS thread be merged in here? Oh wait, we'll need that next year at first sign of injury or loss. Best keep them separate.

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - JAKE BOWEY
Bowser also more comfortable kicking with non-preferred. I laughed when I saw the official AFL teamsheets that had him matched to Ratugalea but figured he could always reach up and tickle him. To quote Spargs "If you're good enough, you're tall enough.
