This is up there with Essendon 2001 for the feeling of despair.

So far this season: only side not to be goalless in a quarter. only side not to lead at 3/4 time only side not to win…

So torn between keeping on watching to see us win and wanting to turn it off to avoid the heartbreak…

Had to leave at 3/4 time for my sanity. Fired up playlist on phone. First words to blast out “I’m a loser” by The Beatles. Cheers, phone.

West Coast just kicked the same score in every quarter (2.1) against Adelaide (who themselves went oh so close to kicking the same number of goals each quarter - 7,7,7,6). How many times have a team kicked exactly the same score in all 4 quarters?

Fantastic news! Having being at Dallas Brooks in 2007, chipped in for the debt recovery over the years, and kept up memberships throughout the whole period, I'll be raising a glass tonight for this. Has to be up there with our premierships and that night in 2007 as one of our most significant...

Bloody Hell! Just listening to that on the radio was torture. They just never let us relax, do they? Fantastic result.

First live game in forever. Atmosphere in members (L1/37) is fantastic! Go you good things! Not sure if my hands and voice are up to this after so long away...

As the very definition of a lurker (<10 posts a year over 16 years) I hope Eugene appreciates that he’s dragged me out of hiding to say thanks for his magnificent (if way too brief) time in the top job. A true hero of the club, who we, and all the current players and coaches owe so much to. Was...

Was only able to watch this tonight - fantastic memories. That night at Dallas Brooks Hall will remain with me forever - the trepidation, passion and utter joy when the decision to stay was announced... I even got to ask one of the questions in the Q&A session. The only thing missing from the...

Thanks for all the great memories. A few that I don't think have been mentioned yet: - that game against * in 2001. As Kingy kicked what we thought was the 13th straight goal and the quarter-time siren went, the stunned reaction of the entire crowd - the low rumble of disbelief about what was...

That'll do, JB, that'll do... That night at Dallas Brooks Hall still feels as clear as when it happened - the passion, the venom towards the journalists and AFL, the joy when JB said we were staying, the singing, the clapping, the cheers - what a night!! Thanks to JB, the "white knights", all...

Only 3 have played more than 400...

Yes, pretty sure that is why I am Priority 1 this year (would otherwise be P2).

I didn't select this option, and hope I don't get standing room tickets. However, I went to the '99 GF with my then 6-year old with standing room tickets, and had a great day - the view is not ideal, but the atmosphere in the standing room section in the Southern Stand was incredible - only...

My take on this is that the "Ballot" element is about how you get allocated a seat, not whether you get one. That is, being Priority 1, you are absolutely guaranteed a ticket (i.e. not a ballot), but the actual seat you get will be determined by ballot. This makes sense if you consider that the...

Done! Thanks for link to mobile site, managed to do it on the train into work. Surprisingly smooth process for a change.

Rang the club today as well - same story as some others here. As a Premiership Pledger, my Priority 2 membership is upgraded to P1, with the same barcode, and no additional chance to enter the ballot. I was told that only if you already had a P1 membership already would you be entitled to a...

Just roll the clock back to Round 12 - we'd just come off another of those appalling wins against Gold Coast (Gold Coast!!) where it looked like we'd thrown away another easy win by taking the foot off the pedal, only one match after the Hawthorn belting (and Arocca walking :() . At 5 & 6, and...

Did anyone else think it just a tad insensitive earlier on when Tony Grieg waxed lyrical about the ocean surrounding the ground, and the beautiful waves? Given the 2004 tsunami and all...

Gee, it makes you feel good to be part of this club, doesn't it? Hopefully they can leverage the "feel good" effect into some more tangible benefits down the track. Maybe they should be shaking the tree for sponsorship from "The Good Guys"? :)

The sheer intensity all over the ground for almost the entire game - no easy possessions for Carlton, and the way the forwards fought to lock it in. Boomers goal - hadn't been able to relax up till that stage, given our recent history (and the fact I went to THAT game in 2001 against the...

Level 1, Aisle 37, exactly on centre line, a few rows from the boundary. Noice...

Just saw this on the MSJFL web site - looks like we're sponsoring a junior footy club, which I assume will be known as the Brighton Beach Kangaroos. Will be nice to see the little tackers running around in the blues & white stripes... Good initiative by the club, I reckon - hopefully will...

That WAS fun! I reckon most of us were on our feet after Boomer's fifth bounce, cheering for the goal that must (surely!) come... Voice is almost gone, which is my criteria for a good day at the footy.

Had a problem with our memberships, with Number 1 son not getting automatically renewed, and hence his reserved seat being allocated away (leaving us with 3 "split" seats). Rang membership, with no joy, and not a happy camper. Then had the brainwave of going straight to "The Man" (Euge) with...

$50 from me - thanks for setting this up.

"Only Time will Tell Temple"?

I know - but where do you stop with quoting this one - the fact that he hasn't spoken about this before was probably the most impressive part. This all seems so far from the night I went to Dallas Brookes Hall - everything was so uncertain then, and really felt like relocation was becoming a...
