Love the way we’ve been doing the jumper presentations to debutants the past few years, getting past players back, even those who only played a small role at Melbourne. Had Luke Dunstan present to Jack Steele yesterday as a former Saint, and Lynden Dunn to Mihocek too.

Not sure who orchestrated that but it’s great to see.

What’s the statute of limitation on getting Trac and Oliver to do jumper presentations?

Not sure if it's been brought up, but has anyone noticed the socials profile picture is this logo

The AFL website still has the monogram version but has there been a change.

I suspect it’s temporary. Someone suggested they might be gearing up for some retro merch to drop, which would make sense.

This would make sense. I also noticed it in the foxtel promo thing with Max Gawn. It's kind of the official unofficial logo. Anyway I think it's definitely a fan favourite.

Obviously it will mostly be cringe and embarrassing but happy for them to have a go, as long as they realise Irish jig is the only answer.

Happy to have injuries and stats announced, did my head in how the subs were never announced ATG. He is right that TV and radio have outpaced being ATG in a lot of ways.

Looks like they've been reading BF again:

Where's it from?

It’s a Shaker melody called Simple Gifts written in Maine mid 19th century.

The hymn was later set to different words by some English bloke so became “Lord of the Dance” which has now instrumental versions (used without authorisation or acknowledgement) in a kind of Gaelic style instrumental thing from that Michael Flatley musical Lord of the Dance, which is what we played after goals that time.

It’s not really a gig either. Gigs are generally in compound time like 6/8, 12/8 or whatever but that song is common time.

(I did warn you).

With all of that though, I really like the song. There are apparently just two Shakers left in the world. I guess a religion that requires total celibacy wasn’t going to hang on forever.

Club needs to introduce PG lectures after goals.

Actually very interesting
 
Wait why are we using fake irish music for?
Plenty of real irish music you can do jigging too.
Pogues- Fairlytale of New York (uncensored version pls)
How about a bit of Lankum. We can all dance to that.
