Only got ourselves to blame for that one. Had the run of the game for the most part and did nothing with it and Collingwood would so often just make it look easy in the fwd line which was deflating. Good fight back, but we never should’ve been in that position to begin with. 

Managed to get 3 GA tickets together on level 4 bay Q7. Had to wait for the public tickets as my partner isn’t a member yet 

The pressure in this game is off the charts so far! Carlton have been immense but our defence has been equally so.

Fun fact:

Round 11-16: 39.63

Round 17-20: 52.39

Good to see them getting back to the accuracy from the earlier rounds this year 

If anyone is wanting some cheap 21 premiers merch, the south wharf dfo afl store still has a bunch that is heavily reduced. Picking some up myself. Everything there is ranging from $2 up to $8 except for the framed picture and the big Petracca bobble head, and the scarf. 

Got the 21 premiers sticker, 22 and 23 members and a demons beanie kids in the rear window along with a Melbourne badge on the boot lid. Also have the 21 members lanyard hanging in the front window but can’t upload as it goes over the attachment limit 

Decided to have a peek at this again, and they truly are a delusional bunch of supporters wanting Hird back 🤦‍♂️ But if it keeps them down for a bit longer then great! 

Papley really does have a head you’d love to punch. So annoying that he kept torching us.

Pretty happy with my seat 

That line for the mcc area is crazy 😂

nobody waiting as I came in gate 3 though 

Thought I’d try my luck again just then. Surprisingly I got straight in after about a 30 second wait and got a ticket in m11 on the 50m line!

I have been saying this for some time once that once  membership gets above a certain level the chances of a finals ticket drop substantially.

Yeah, and for me the 10am release just completely slipped my mind and was just in the queue for maybe 15mins just then. Hopefully I’ll still get a general public seat later on.

Nothing left, no matter what I pick now it’s coming up with no tickets available

Levers face was priceless with that goal 🤣🤣

🤣🤣 made an account solely to rub the Clarkson decision in and they got all hurt from this little comment. Account suspended too 🤣

totally immature but I couldn’t resist after the complete mishandling of this situation they created. 

Great all round team performance. Viney was huge, Jackson really stepped up as the first ruck, lever back to his best, and all the role players really did their job.
 

And, maybe Weideman has found his role to play in the team. Obviously Max is out so chances are it will be him to make way, but he played his role well and if he can put in that sort of effort whenever he gets his chance then it’ll go a long way for him. Something to really build off for him. Hopefully it’s not a once off. 

Weideman has shown a bit in that first half so good on him. Looking at the stats doesn’t show much but he’s had a bit of presence at times. 

Doesn’t help for big games like this one when the carpark is shut except for permit holders and disability 

I was going to go to this game, only to find out the carpark is shut except for permit and disability. Not going to bother driving the 1.5-2hours and then try to find street parking somewhere. And the train is more expensive than driving for me. What’s the thinking having the ground closed for a game like this? 

Wtf is this umpiring! 3 frees in a row for 3 disposals resulting in 2 goals 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️ Honestly, these umpires have lost their mind

I would love to see Sydney steal this one, but I also want the blues to win solely for my footy tipping!

I'm delighted to have been so wrong. A 35,000+ crowd is a fine effort for this particular day and timeslot.

I couldn't attend the game because of family commitments but when I did have the chance to watch it on delay via Kayo the first thing I noticed was the relatively healthy crowd numbers.

I was thinking we’d be lucky to push to up to 30k for the game too! Was a very good crowd considering it was Mother’s Day. 

I’m going to games more than ever this year and I’m two hours east of Melbourne. Only game played in Melbourne I’ll miss at this rate is the freo game in a few weeks (too slow getting the date in at work 😭)

I quite like the look of these old logos. I’d be happy to see them flying on the flags again

Always Ponsford stand at away games unless we play away against Collingwood as they sit their on home games

Ok thanks, don’t normally go to away games so this was new to me.
