Feels like we’ll get flogged in an elim. Again.

SMJ · August 17, 2019, 11:13pm

5,461 days. I feel like that’s probably enough.

As a soccer person this one hits me. The A League hadn’t even started yet

There were no smart devices around when we won our last final.

Facebook was then opened on September 26, 2006 to everyone aged 13 and older with a valid e-mail address.

SMJ:

John Howard and Mark Latham were in the middle of an election campaign. Howard would go on to be elected to a 4th term in October and would serve as Prime Minister for a further three years

George W Bush would be elected to a second term as US President in November

The highest selling mobile phone was the Nokia 2600. It had a colour screen, which was revolutionary at the time, but didn’t have a camera or Bluetooth. The first iPhone would not be released for another three years

Global warming received its first ever magazine front page, in Businessweek magazine

Amy Winehouse released her debut album

Facebook has been online for 6 months but was only open to Harvard students. It would not be open to the general public for another 18 months.

Twitter would not be launched for another two years. Instagram would not be launched for another six years

…

And finally…the first series of ‘The Apprentice’ has just finished airing, and Donald Trump was one of the most popular celebrities in the world

First post in the thread. It really is amazing when you think about it.

Last time we won a final

Tied an onion to my belt

We can’t bust heads like we used to, but we have our ways. One trick is to tell 'em stories that don’t go anywhere - like the time I caught the ferry over to Shelbyville. I needed a new heel for my shoe, so, I decided to go to Morganville, which is what they called Shelbyville in those days.

We beat the Ds by a kick and the ball ended with Hirdy taking a mark(??). I think game was the last for the young D who played on Hirdy, Trent Broadbridge who was killed later that year in the Boxing day tsunami.

All accurate.

I was house sitting at my folks in Geelong. Invited heaps of friends down for the next weekend. Not so good.

Zimmer · August 18, 2019, 9:10am

Not in the league of: remember when we last won a flag? - signed, St.K and Melbs.

Josh · August 18, 2019, 9:12am

I would of been 4 years old…

Surely…

ITS

TIME

You’ve gone lid off?

westozziebomber · August 18, 2019, 9:36am

I would just love, absolutely love EVERYONE to get behind the club and go lid off these next few weeks. If we get let down, who cares? We’re used to it!

but, if we win, you can tell every one “I told you” and celebrate like you’ve never celebrated ever before

ITS TIME

■■■■■■ oath, WOB. I like it.

Irons · August 18, 2019, 9:37am

IT.

Irons · August 18, 2019, 9:37am

Mendozaaaa · August 18, 2019, 9:38am

Bring this look back for good luck.
