Cheers everyone, Go Dees!

First game Rd 11 1988 v West Coast Best game attended also 2000 QF final against Blues. Worst game was v Richmond R12 2007. 11 goals down at half time made me leave early and head to the pub.

I’ve done some investigating. This is Hunt from training yesterday watching Chandler’s kick after that blistering run. All fingers look ok to me.

Very clever Brownie, might explain why some pallets of beer come with a hollow centre into the warehouse now. No sorry, just a silly thought.

Hunt’s finger ok then?

Awesome to see many offering their barcodes to get other Melbourne supporters to the prelim. Maybe keep one because I found a way to get some of you to Perth. We distribute to Dan Murphy’s and BWS all over the country and we ship to WA daily. If you’re not frightened of confined spaces I can hide you in a pallet with an authentic shipping label. PM me.

More than happy to share. Have 6, 2 adults and 4 juniors if that matters.

This is the Cats 11th prelim in the last 15 years. Phenomenal achievement whether you love them or dislike them. Like Brayshaw said, it’s bloody hard to win one game of footy, but one thing our boys have given us this season is the confidence to believe in them and most importantly it’s the belief they have in themselves. It’s been evident all year. They’ve given themselves the best chance possible to make the GF and I hope the stadium is covered in Red & Blue. It can only be a positive for the boys in the absence of those of us that can’t get there. No doubt the nerves will creep in later in the week as the realisation sets in we’re one game away from being one of the last two. In the meantime try and have a good week everyone.

I’m in.

Felt for the Big Oscar Mac, he was one of their best and after 100 ruck contests he gets done for a block in the last centre bounce. How stiff!

Come on guys, Danger didn’t throw the ball….it was an offload

It’s all about focus for the team. A regular training run and some of our blokes aren’t too bad with the round ball but one bit that clearly stood out comes about 2.08 into the video. May and Smith.

Elwood beach seems a popular place. We should all head there to watch if we make the GF.

Thanks. Damn..thought some were a sneaky chance of heading over for next week as I didn’t hear anything about still requiring to quarantine. Oh well…back on the couch.

Posted this on another thread, maybe better suited here. Maybe there’s a chance for some of us to get there for the prelim mb. I hope I heard right on the news earlier when they said as of Monday Victorians can enter WA as long as they’ve had one shot of the vaccine. Didn’t hear any other details though.

Did anyone catch the news? I’m sure they said as of Monday only vaccinated Vics ( one jab required) can enter WA. Need confirmation.

For those wanting to disengage from footy until Game Day by listening to more footy content. Thought this was very honest with some Gus humour thrown in.

Very hard to get into the side right now. Thought Jones did present one of the more powerful moments from Saturday night. The vision of him next to Melksham and Hibbo, the hugs in the rooms from players and Goody, him clapping the song in the background. Very hard not to get a bit emotional watching that.

An Essendon supporter walking back to his seat had a tray full of beer in one hand, a cup in the other and was still appealing with the hands for insufficient intent. I would never risk one beer spilling let alone a tray pleading for deliberate.

Lucky Weightman and English are out there today for the Dogs.

Ecstatic for some of the faithful that got to see the boys live last night. There was a bit of noise there, it sounded like it anyway. Nearly 14k there, not bad considering a 20k cap.

This has been the theme pretty much all season with us IHW. The opposition will move forward at speed but our boys lead the charts ( average speed in defence) for top 5 on ground in this particular stat all year.

Haven’t been able to post all day due to nerves. I’m about to cry. An All- Australian bench on the siren …Gawn, May, Trac and Oliver. Usual suspects very good, special mention to Sparrow. He was good!
