Only interested in one tradition in 2022. Unfurling the Flag!!

Browns, Titans, Chiefs

These bloody scammers are everywhere. I received a call a few weeks ago from a mobile number I didn’t recognise at first, then realised it was my own number calling me. To say I was a little freaked out would be an understatement. So if you ring yourself don’t answer.

Yeah tough day fellas. Down for the day, was on Hinged in the Flight Stakes. Almost a decent collect…we’ll go again next week.

Missed this one, saw it on the Channel 7 in the Melbourne rooms video the club released this morning.

This a ripper photo and pretty much the theme all year. The joy on their faces when a teammate has kicked a goal, not many instances throughout the season where a player on their own in a better position has felt aggrieved when bypassed for a shot at goal. Genuine happiness for teammates, each goal is worth a viewing of 4-5 times on the GF replay just to see the reactions in the background. One of my favourites is Spargo on his own in the goal square jumping and fist pumping the air.

Cheers Macca, love me some Gus. Wanted to throw a couple of BBs in the last few weeks but thought I’d wait until GF glory. I’ve picked a tough race, I just think the mare was very unlucky in the Autumn and she’s come back well this spring. She represents terrific value I feel. Good luck to the Premiership edition of BBs this weekend.

Hopefully in a month or two we can celebrate it with the club. Just finished watching the celebrations again after the siren and I’m glad they did it front of some of our faithful but I felt envious.

This is a magnificent innings so far on post-match. Clap the half century of pages.

I liked Gerard Whateley’s description of Sparrow’s long goal. ” It was up at Sparrows and just kept going “

Can anyone lip read ? After Brayshaw kicked his goal he walked back to the wing with Langdon and it’s clear on the replay he says something to Ed. To me it looked like he said “ I’m fu__ed”. The more I watch the replay the more I fall in love with Gus and I didn’t think it was possible. After playing predominantly as a defensive winger I think he was given a little more license to attack since the Cats R23 clash. His last quarter was pivotal that night, finals series was excellent and he was just brilliant on Premiership night. Just reminded a few that Top 3 picks don’t grow on trees.

Awesome scenes, was shattered for Hunt when he missed out but have a look at him go…front and centre.

There literally wasn’t any middle ground during the blitz. We’ve gone form 19 down and most thinking we’ve missed an opportunity to all of a sudden being 4 goals up at the last break. No time for biting nails and heart attacks. Extraordinary finish to a quarter.

We’ll keep it going even if we run out of things to say WCW, the drive home from work on the Western Ring this arvo was stress free. That’s all I got for now.

The five boys on the bench at the siren must’ve felt like greyhounds in a 297m race waiting for the boxes to ping open. Glad they ran on after T Mac’s kick.

Was unreal and something we’ve done a lot more this season. Protecting teammates.

Thought they were very good last night the umps, a well done to them…one or two might have been a bit dodgy but you get that. An exceptional bit of umpiring came in the third quarter just prior to the Gus mark and goal. Pickett attempts a tackle on Weightman and fell on his back. Was waiting for the whistle against us but upon closer inspection it was in fact Weightman that locked arms with Kozzie to drag him onto his back in order to draw a free. You can clearly hear the ump say play on when he saw it.

Gus was massive in the third. Watching the third quarter now without the live emotions and his work rate is off the charts. Couple of crucial spoils back in defence also. Simply an amazing performance.

Ravens, Cardinals, Seahawks

How’s the head going Demonlanders? Every bit of vision you watch over the coming days will most likely cause you to shed some tears. It’s probably been mentioned but seeing Kozzie trying to hand his medal to Neville Jetta on the boundary celebration got to me big time.
