MFC Mandela Effect

[MarcMaverick]

As a kid, I thought our VFL allignment was to the Port Melbourne Boroughs.

 

[Headless]

I thought Guy Rigoni had retired for some reason until he was named in our 22.

 

[Johnny Karate]

Every campaigner saying we made top 4 in 22 and 23.

 

[Lord Nev]

Current - AMW showing amazing form and shaping as our half back saviour...

 

[mrmonkey]

Gary Morecroft playing 3 games for Melbourne feels like a Mandela effect, but it did actually happen.

I was struck by how much he resembled the North Melbourne coach

Wild.

 

[mrmonkey]

Reece Shaw coaching north melbourne, did it actually happen?

 

[Bluelegs]

Wild.

Didn't realise until Winston Abraham went on the front bar earlier this year. They both had a fair chance of winning both mark and goal of the year. Farmer took the goal while Abraham got the mark.

 

[Bluelegs]

Another Mandela effect. I totally though he kicked the goal after the mark.

Love the "UP GOES FARMER!" commentary.

Every speccie these days has me thinking "that could be Cadbury's Mark of the Year."

 

[Headless]

Good thread, MarcMaverick.

 

[Proper Gander]

I had it in my head (still do) that after sacking Neeld in 2013, we won our first game under Neil Craig and easily. I even have a false recollection of a colleague of mine having a conversation about how the team looked free and happy and played so well as a result.

Stats suggest Craig only won one game as caretaker and it wasn’t that one but who cares, I recall it strongly.

 

[mrmonkey]

All these precious memories makes me a proud melbourne Hawks supporter.

 

[Proper Gander]

Also agree with Headless - great thread MarcMaverick

For a moment, I thought you were agreeing in thinking that Guy Rigoni had retired for some reason until he was named in our 22.

 

[Proper Gander]

I thought Roy Cazaly played for Melbourne and was a forward.

Until about 4 weeks ago too.

UP GOES CAZALY!

 

[Proper Gander]

I do have a Rigoni memory that at some point he rescued a child swept out to sea by a rip. Can’t seem to discover that ever happened. In fact, I can’t find that anyone did this.

and Davey where not ever on the list at the same time (Which makes sense because Davey would take Leoncelli's number). But it always felt like Davey started sooner and Leoncelli played longer in the 2000s
