I should have been dropped for Weideman but no one else on the the list should have

Petracca on 360
I don't much care if Trac is on 360 although he's not particularly interesting I don't much care if he does cheap advertising though I prefer not to publicly single out players over the team. What irks me is his spinning the ball as he runs in to miss shots at the goal. As best as I can tell none of the leading goal kickers do it and thus it maybe relevant

Bleeding Hassa Man..I reckon I could have slotted that and I was only 14! BT would have gone crazy( laugh)

The penultimate Melbourne Premiership - 1964
Memory and last quarter jitters...I remember Gabelich 's wobbly run down the forward line being longer but I do remember 3 Dee's chasing him down...too late. Maybe that was why Norm was so angry at Crompton.. " WHO' S ON GABELICH!!!??:

The penultimate Melbourne Premiership - 1964
On behalf of Dicko ..I am insulted by your kicking observation( he got a bit of the ball too)[ smile] I remember John Lord as a bit of a duffer..I guess that was closer to his retirement and when I was a bit older. Bluey ripping off out of defence on the outer side brought back memories. Note to fans ..I wore number 6 on my jumper until I was about 15 then I stored it away to memory. If you are 30 + years old don't embarrass yourself

The penultimate Melbourne Premiership - 1964
All I remember is looking down on Gabelich running past me in the the Northern Stand and feeling sick and someone ( Crompton) putting the world back on its axis Also Dickos kicking, and I can recognise Bluey before the commentator calls him. Even worse goal kicking than today but no one seems to mind. Great names there and none of us knew the Tigers were about to invade our home ground......advantage

Brownlow Votes. No love for defenders in All Australian Team 2022
It wasn't home and away but if May wasn't 3 votes against the Swans then Goodwins a great coach with flexible options Over the season the dee fence pretty much won the first 10 games and the votes should show that You'd think any half smart umpire would notice how they had to run back in the other direction every time the ball went towards the Demon defence Petty is to May what Trac was to Oliver

It's the Culture
No he didn't, you spuds accused him of that just before you started going on about" banged up" Demons over the last two weeks Oh and umpires and the AFL (laughing) To his credit the coach said they weren't banged up , but I reckon they were and he was just covering up for their season long selection mistakes The Cats WERE obviously flat..almost as if they were recovering from a debilitating illness. Pathetic...grow up

FINALS 2022: Week 03
So why is the best" repeat effort " on here so called fans saying the Dee's lose because of umpiring favouritism. Ps It clearly was "IN THE BACK " (can't overlook a nudge then leaning across space to push) but you might argue the mark could have been paid

Lucky we did because no one will remember how much better than the Dees other 3 were.

It's the Culture
Hard to get a clear picture the wonderkund coach says they weren't banged up at all No one going to surgery blah blah blah.

2022 Brownlow Medal
Yeah but he's not a vote winner for umpires .half the time he's out of sight under a pack and then Trac gets the ball in free air

Ollie ain't going to win it. You can put money on that He probably should though ( sigh)

FINALS 2022: Week 03
Geez The current year,the current opponents and the current teams are all that is relevant at the seasons end. The Dee's earned 5th the 4 that finished above them deserved to do so on current performance. No riddle it speaks for itself. You may want to argue that next season may be different. Last season was
-
FINALS 2022: Week 03
Yep every team that finished above Melbourne beat them or at least beat them when it counted. The Dee's had no right to finish higher than 5th

Well you don't really like football then. Anyway this arvo will likely be the one to watch. And not barracking actually makes good football great

FINALS 2022: Week 03
I'm pleased to see when morning comes around that there are some supporters who arnt totally delusional. Last night the only thing stranger than BT was people here calling BOTH teams crepe and how if it wasn't for umpires and the AFL we would have beaten them...easy!!

I wish he had been a Demon [censored] He could have taught Trac how hit a leading forward on the chest or kick a goal from straight in front

No mate it was the umpires fault. Just give up and go to bed

BT reckons there's a lot of time left.. Then notes the Lions are a long way behind. That's 12 stupidities so far
