Seriously Nathan Jones you poor man.
Back to reality with a thump! Sad seeing what could have been, with Ryder, Melch, Hibberd, Crameri and Hirdy as coach…

Marks 144-74, tackles 61-35…
78-28 inside 50s. Wow
Isn’t it 8th

15 goals after half time, just like last week. 
Not often we have a win like that. Very nice.

The storm last night played havoc with my internet connection. By the time that was sorted out, it would have been lated in the third quarter for everyone else. l decided to watch the game at my leisure, rather than catch up to everyone else.
Id forgotten how laughably bad Melbourne was
back when he was the talented grimes.
I miss it so much! He’s now decking his boy in Essendon gear. My wish to the footy gods is that the howl will be back in the years to come! Bring on 2030 something! AWOOOOOOOO!!!

Grabbing a better digital copy from VHS of the 1992 Reserves Grand Final now… it gets extremely “willing”. Don’t remember how many weeks of suspension came from it… nowadays it would be years all up!
Bradley Plain slotted two more goals while I wrote the above.
