Autopsy UP THE BLOODY PRELIM!

[Godfather32]

I agree

Just told the missus if we drop this game I’ll be taking a long LONG walk that afternoon. And please don’t hassle me with anything for at least one week

She wasn’t impressed.

All good mate, be a fairly even game until 2 or 3 minutes into the last quarter then we'll surge ahead and win by about 5 goals

 

[avishka5]

Pure savagery from this lions fan.

 

[wraglesweb]

I can't handle another loss after 2015. I'm far too attached to this game, for the love of all that is holy, please win.

If we forget to handshake the umpires hands after the anthem. Be very very concerned, showed how nervous we were in 2015.

I'd just like to thank all those freo supporters for getting down to support Melbourne yesterday and help us break the attendance record.

 

[avishka5]

Not sure who this bloke will be barracking for on the weekend

I'd just like to thank all those freo supporters for getting down to support Melbourne yesterday and help us break the attendance record.

The thought of them coming down to support against us and then having to watch that game is hilarious

How bad is it here? An Eagles supporter just bought me a beer and they are all being really nice. #AFLEaglesDees

Those condescending bastards thinking he couldn't afford to buy his own beer. This is so like the slime. /cockburn

Page 39 of the game day thread from memory

 

[KERRPOW]

Watching the replay for the second time on fox.

We ******* demolished them

 

[Wosh]

Anyone got the gif of Duggan poleaxing Gawn?

Know the quarter and time?

 

[DJMac]

Pole smoker referred to "Dessie Headland" as an eagle great!

Not even a Brisbane or Freo great.

 

[WCEswift]

Know the quarter and time?

All i think i remember is last quarter maybe last half of it?

 

[avishka5]

Gawn maybe big but he's a bit of a bitch. Remember Cripps getting him and someone else as well.

 

[DJMac]

Also loved the scenes from fed square.....View attachment 562438

Shame they didn't beam it into Optus for the whole game.

Federation square at 3 quarter time.

 

[Broken_Chairs]

Pls tell me they live streamed the Melbourne fans cheering in federation square at the game

 

[Monocle]

I agree

She wasn’t impressed.

Biggie I didn't even need to tell my wife , she already knows what I will be like if we don't win , she shook her head this morning and told me if we don't win the GF she is bracing herself for a s**t month, actually her exact words were " Christmas cant come soon enough. "

My wife really hasn't got that much interest in footy but for her own sanity she will be wanting an Eagles win.

 

[DJMac]

Will they be streaming fan scenes from WA next week?

 

[The Passenger]

Had a bit of a read over on the dorkers board. gee, they're a salty mob. Void/starved of success. They envy and hate us at the same time.

I don't really care much for comparisons to freo as they are just another of 17 opponents... But I can't help but love the fact straight on the back of their most successful period we have - by virtue of making a second grand final - surpassed that period of success with what is (on current achievements) only our third most successful period. And you know how much that eats away at them inside.

 

[Wosh]

All i think i remember is last quarter maybe last half of it?

Sorry, not the best quality

 

[DirtySandman]

the dorkers

I have worked out who should present the cup to us next week.

Ross Glendinning!

It has to be,

Notes:
- After 2 matches where Vardy predominantly played 1st ruck, things returned to normal
- Cripps spent the majority of the match starting off the back of the square
- Masten was back in the last, but I wasn't 100% paying attention as to whether he was legitimately playing as a back again, or just starting off the back of the square
