    O captain, my captain

    O Captain! My Captain!

    O Captain! my Captain! our fearful trip is done,
    The ship has weather’d every rack, the prize we sought is won


    THAT WAS MY CAPTAIN WHAT DID THAT!
    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

        He owns big moments in games like that more than any other bulldog player I've seen in 50 years of watching us play.

          That performance from Bontempelli was Da Vinciesque. Rembrandtesque. Mozartesque. Beyonceesque. De Niroesque. Einsteinesque. Streepesque. Arethaesque. If you were allowed to give all the Brownlow votes to one man it would be 6 votes to Bont.

            He never even looked like he was in doubt. Set the tone all day and that last kick on goal was perfection
            BB.

            Looking forward - Naughton, Darcy and JUH. It will be the envy of everyone.

              He was electric first half and back half of the last quarter. Was the lift we needed - taking the game on, maxing forward at all costs and then delivering when it was his turn.

                I said to my auntie that Bont is imposing his will in the last, fitting that he kicked the sealer.
                TF is this?.........Obviously you're not a golfer.

                      We might just be watching the greatest player to ever pull on the tricolour.

                      What a player!

                        It's Bont's world, we just live in it.
                        Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.
