I have been to many finals over the years but aside from the GFs that was one of the best
That roar when Acres kicked the goal magnificent
What a great fighting come from behind win when we were on our knees
What made it special was I was with my daughters and son in law also a poster on these parts and we have been going for years and particularly the last 20 and we havent been too good to put it mildly
Told them to keep the faith for year it will turn they got this week the dividend for preserverance and loyalty
How brilliant to see their elation at the end of the game
Just a brilliant night and a night the sleeping giant really awoke
Enjoy everyone its been a long 20 years
To all those who have been on the journey in here for years and before that the Blue view savour one of our greatest finals wins enjoy every second
We have a football club to be admired
Other teams now fears us again
Thank goodness to early in the season our management and board finally stood up supported the coach took a deep breath and stared the malcontents down
Go Blues
I’m the first to admit that I got a few things wrong a few months ago
Since the end of the first quarter against GC at the MCG the players have been magnificent
It all got better when Mathieson left
If you are a United club your half way there
If your not you have no hope
For the first time in nearly a quarter of a century the club supported the coach rather than sack him
Hey presto
The other thing I like is Voss won’t select blokes who are really soft or not up to it
Young
O’Brien
Plowman
Fisher to some degree
We have some hard footballers and it’s great to see others improve
It would be a surprise to beat Brisbane
But you never know
Let’s hope regardless Zorko and Daniher have shit games
