Hi there - as previously mentioned - attended that happy occasion with my father who won a bet with a Melbourne supporter at his work. The Melbourne supporter left the £1 on my father's desk on the Monday morning with a note saying "you bastards" - hilariousOr winning flags.

My dad was there too. He was 16 at the time. Think he went with his footy club.Hi there - as previously mentioned - attended that happy occasion with my father who won a bet with a Melbourne supporter at his work.

No pre-sold tickets then - rock up and buy them on the day - think my Dad and I got the last 2 seats in the old Southern Stand.My dad was there too. He was 16 at the time. Think he went with his footy club.
What is in that bag?At least you're still young at heart.

Yup. Huge focus on that as well. One of the main drills done every session.Has there been a focus on tackling? Most of our squad have a weakness in that fundamental.

I'm well aware of that - it didn't enter my mindBig Footy publishing doesn’t count…
Just a joke mate.I'm well of that - it didn't enter my mind
Flags are sensational but the most joyful seasons are ones just like this with a young list that has potential.
We get to watch them develop, all the highs and lows - it should serve as a reminder for some here that the journey itself is the reason and the realization of the dream the destination.
Enjoy the journey people.

I see a number of posters referring to Craig McRae as "Fly". I appreciate that this is a familial nickname and as such is usually something shared between well known acquaintances. I was comfortable with 'Bucks' as he was a long standing Collingwood presence - I'd cheered his playing days and sweated and cried through his tenure as coach. Once Craig has made his mark and established his credentials with a series of emphatic wins I'll be happy to accept him as a long standing mate. If a premiership falls his way then 'legend' status may well be bestowed.
Apparently Lou Richards who gave cheek to everybody only ever called Jock McHale "Mr McHale"Once upon a time we were referring to Jock as “Mr McHale”. Go even further back and we would have been using the formal pronoun “thou”.
Social customs and language evolve. Who knows, in 10 years we might have reached full hieroglyphics and he has his own emoticon …

Thats interesting. For me 2021 was one of the blackest i can remember. The off season turmoils, the clubs name being dragged through the mud by our own doing and the slide down the ladder. I have to say I havent been able to shake that blackness yet. My gut feel is we will be paying for our sins for a good few seasons yet. McRae has a really tough gig for mine. He is firmly in the honeymoon period currently but that never lasts. His task to get us back up against the odds will be monumental. If he succeeds and I will happily see myself as a sour old whiner.I saw 2021 that way and for me it was one of the most entertaining seasons despite finishing 17th.
Queens Birthday was one of the best wins you’ll ever see. Seeing the young lads debuting and developing was a treat.
Very generational also. All my friends parents were always Mr and Mrs. Even to this day, not that there are many left, I would call them that and feel uncomfortable if they said call me Gwen or what ever.Apparently Lou Richards who gave cheek to everybody only ever called Jock McHale "Mr McHale"
