Agree 100% mate, anyone who wears the Navy Blue is a hero of mine, let alone a player who makes a statement in a finals match

I haven't been so pumped at a match for so long, Richmond brings out such an inner hatred in me its not funny, leading up to this match it reminded me that I grew up hating Richmond just as much as Collingwood - all those games they used to belt us and as you would know not just on the scoreboard, hate, hate, hate

I got home to Bendigo late that night and I watched the last half again on the TV - it was an incredible match to have the privlege of going to live & watch, I was there with my younger brother and two nephews and I know they wont ever forget that experience, emotion, atmosphere

Gee I love my Blue Boys

Waite was fantastic on Sunday and deserved a greater bag of goals...Vinnie would've been proud.
