Not a member but was there for Pav’s 300th and remember the crowd vibe was so much more electric than normal, then Pav came out, kicked a blinder in the first and we dominated Geebung like usual.
The crowd went nuts every time Pav went near it .
I’m expecting and hoping the boys do the same and blitz the bullies early - and I’ll be there on Saturday again to witness what is an amazing milestone in the modern era.
Can’t wait to cheer for this legend with every sidestep, feigned handball and after-the-siren piece of magic

I have always loved Mundy. Even in the earlier days where people bemoaned his so called casual style, his lack of manicness, I just saw a guy who thought his way through on a footy field. Where others were bluster, huff and puff, Mundy was a player that just worked and built his game slowly and surely. He had skills in all facets without being stand out elite in anything, but that rounded game was evidenced from very early, I always rated him.

He got stronger, smarter and his already good skills turned elite. He snuck up on people as he never had that crazy breakout game, he just built and built. Next minute, he's a 300 game player, club leader and among the best in the league.

He's a gem, plays to win, always improving, never a dickhead, loyal, stands up in big games and in big moments - been a pleasure to watch those 300 and look forward to a good few more to come.

Its weird to think most people there have only been around for the tail end of Mundy's career. I like Ballas picking an older moment.
you mentioning that lead me to discover that Tabs, Tucker, Langdon and AP are in the top 10 for games played for freo on the list currently, which is bloody weird

I've mentioned a highlight from recent times, so here is one from earlier days.
Mundy's hanger the play begins at about 6:45.
such a ripper mark by a ripper player.
some great highlight there
He's never been that high since (unlike some of our team)
