   l waited 56 years (born 1965) for the greatest game Melbourne ever played.   Now I can die happy, you beautiful things!   I’ve had diehard Collingwood and Essendon fans and even Geelong fans (friends)  say that that last minute of the third is hands down THE best football they’ve ever seen, by any team, at any time, ever ! It was the most thrilling passages of play in one minute I have ever seen. In a grand final! That third quarter was the most insane I have ever seen . Goodwin  has done what none could for 57 years, and given me the greatest joy of my life . He gets a few credits in the bank for that. I’ve told Nick Davis that whenever I’m down, I just put the final quarter of the 2005 Semi on and in 30 minutes I feel great.  I bet you end up doing the same with that miraculous third quarter.  Cheers and well done Dees! Yes there were plenty of Demons for a day - the location and the border controls meant that that was inevitable. But what I saw was a  huge outpouring of goodwill
