Many of you may have seen this before, if not I suggest you do as it certainly gave me a lift.

I hope our new CEO is the best we have had. Since leaving us 10 years ago i believe Schwabb is a much wiser man. T

    Wow, he if he can run the club as well as he makes speaches we'll be more powerful than Collingwood in 3 years time!

    He used the buzz word, UNITY. We have to be united in and pulling in one direction or we will not survive, simple as that.

    I was at this lunch and seriously fought the tears back when he was talking about Northey and the players running around

    I remember that Elimination final well. The noise and colour when Melbourne ran out of the rooms both before & After they broke the Banner was incredable. I'm glad Schwabb recalls it similiar to me. Shows us he wants to see it again....

    Yes it was quite an inspiring speech.

    It made me feel quite excited about the future of the Melbourne Demons.

    Nevertheless, actions speak louder than words! B)

    Actions speak louder than words indeed. I remember Gardiner making a similar speech, talking about how it made him sick to the gut that we hadn't won a flag in 40 years and that it was partly his duty and the players etc. to bring it back where it belonged. We all know how that ended up.

    The only difference is though that Gardiner rarely spoke directly from the heart, instead mostly from a sheet of paper. Schwabb's was from the heart. You can tell. But, it also makes me worry. I think his dedication stems from a knowing of how badly in shape the club is. He's emotional because he knows we're on the brink of non-existence.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
