Great result and helps set the club up (hopefully) for a sustained period of success Well done to all concerned

looks a little bit like a young Ben Cousins to me - I think young Woey will be a good get - he is certainly joining the club at the right time with some very capable coaches and players to learn from

I still feel his best chance is as a forward - we good depth in the back six I'd like to see him put in a good injury free pre season then get a run of games as a forward to see if he has what it takes

Congrats Max and Jess - cute bub ☺️

They have such a strong home ground advantage that it’s almost certain that will make the finals If they had to play all their home games at say MCG or Docklands I very much doubt they would be in contention The teams sharing the MCG and Docklands have less of an advantage for home games IMO I hope next year it will be our 1 in 30 year break from having to travel to the litter box

I'd say Melk and Vanders had a pretty good idea they were not likely to be part of that team going forward - footy is a very very tough game

Nice highlights from The Big Mac Can kick, can mark, can run, can handball If the MFC really want him I say they will find a way to get it done In Jason Taylor I trust

Just wow - so glad this man plays for the MFC - very proud and love reading stuff like this Petracca’s Grand Final gesture to good mate Lucas (melbournefc.com.au)

I guess all good things come to an end - Nev was certainly a very good thing and one of our favorites I'm sure he won't be lost to the club and continue to support MFC going forward as we have seen with so many great former players recently Good luck with everything you do post playing footy Nev

No thanks

Well I have watched the 14 minute mini match replay at least 10 times and I still tear up I can’t actually remember how I felt early in the 3rd quarter last night but I’m sure there was a fair bit of “oh no this is not going to plan” The way this team ran rings around a side that is pretty damn good is something I honestly never thought I’d see - the last half was easily the most impressive MFC performance I have seen in 50+ years of supporting them Christian Petracca - just Wow he has developed into not only an outstanding footballer but I’ve been super impressed with his maturity and how he speaks. I’ve said this before but I love the way he openly expresses his understanding of what this all means to us the supporters particularly those who couldn’t be there to see it first hand Thanks to everyone at the club for getting us here to this place it is a special day and one I will not forget. A special thanks to our recruiting staff who have picked some outstanding young men who are now playing as one team The people that read and post on this site may not always agree but we are all passionate about our team and I am so happy for all of you because I know how much this means. Personally some people who post here particularly in some of our more difficult times have helped me get through and for that I’m grateful I’m still a bit numb but I could get used to this feeling 🏆🔴🏆🔵🏆

Amazing Not sure it would be fair to single out individuals so I won’t So happy for this group - players, coaches and all those that support them To be honest I never thought I see this

Might have something to do with a largely neutral crowd wanting to support a team that hasn’t won for 57 years ! Maybe 🤔

Or is it more about them confusing him for a girl

I'd rather Dawson personally

Great I’d prefer that everyone thinks the Scragging umpire darlings are favourites our guys need to worry about only one thing - 100% effort and focus from first bounce to final siren our best is better than theirs IMO we play our best footy we should win if we don’t they get a look in

Love the fact his Mum's name is Dee - something rather prophetic about that :)

Well played Jonesy kept making the right decisions all the way up to the end - is there anything more special than seeing the arrival of your twins - I doubt it From a footballing perspective you had, and will always have enormous respect from the demon faithful - thank you for all your efforts over your career and staying loyal to the greatest football club in the world Just like many other of the demon faithful I know you will be watching and cheering with us when the team takes the field on GF day to make their (and your) piece of history

Yep we did 20 scoring shots each 9 goals to 13 our disposal efficiency 60% v 69% wet day and of course Free Kicks Us 11 Them 25 (no surprises there)

Yes there are certainly some similarities- both read the game well both have good vision and decision making - but I actually think Bowey could be better by foot eventually - he can kick the ball low and fast with precision whereas Salem tends to kick it a bit higher and slower (still a good kick obviously)

Not sure I’d agree with the skinny kid assessment he has a decent build for his size and isn’t as easily pushed off the ball as many many other AFL players with much more experience

Agree the Perth support was awesome I gave my tickets to mates in Perth - they said it was like a Melb home game

So happy for this team so richly deserved enjoy a few days off then reset to make your own history Been supporting this club for 55+ years wish I could be there to share it

Despite what some people think Pigs do not fly and Rohan has a very good vertical leap - will beat Hibbo in the air easily - not sure about that match up

There will be no Cerra with 76 games and some AFL seniors form on the board available in the draft - its a bit of a lottery When an established player wants to leave you extract what is available - if its pick 6 than so be it
