Rewatching the penalty shootout this morning. Still can’t get over just *how good* of a strike Mary Fowler’s penalty was. 3-2 down? No worries. The guts to just absolutely rifle it into the bottom corner with no hesitation. Warra player.

Over 60,000 people at live sites across the country at 6am in the morning (even earlier in some parts). Can’t be understated how massive that is. There’s so much good and promise to harness in the game here, in what is well and truly: a football country.

Ecstasy for Moreland City, heartbreak for Pascoe Vale. With the last kick of the game, Apai Ukuno fired home the goal that has Moreland on the precipice of promotion to Victoria’s top flight for the first time in 75 years. The promotion six pointer definitely fit the bill.

Coming from a fellow apostrophised Italian surname who’s had his name butchered time again through his 23+ years of existence. The pronunciation of Massimo D’Ambrosio is said exactly how it’s spelt. Dambrosio not Dee-ambrosio. The apostrophe doesn’t create an ‘e’ sound. Grazie.

This isn’t just the end of a ten year coaching tenure, it’s the end of an almost 30 years as a player, captain and now coach. One of the great hard luck stories that he never got a flag at Collingwood.

Tom Wilson’s numbers throughout the first four weeks in the VFL: 20.25 disposals avg, 5.75 marks, 79.5 ranking points (mind you, numbers are weighed down due to quiet round one) Can play any of Howe, Roughead or Murphy’s roles (intercept, key or defensive winger).
