There was once a great club feared by all its rivals, without fail this club would be top 4 every year and had just experienced the most succuccessful period of all AFL clubs racking up premierships like they were bargain rolls of toilet paper after a large meal of spicy indian curry. Yes this club was our club, we owned the top of the ladder.

Then Barassi left and we treated Norm Smith like dirt, we pretty much changed overnight no longer were Melbourne continually sitting above all others, instead we were down the bottom all the time, looking to fill each previously won cup with a big lumber spoon, MFC was out of place, the world had turned upside down!!

So, the snow joke was born, when Melbourne were doing badly we were all off to the snow, the true meaning has been lost over the years but the joke was we were upside down,.. why snow?

get out your crayons and write DEMONS on a piece of paper, turn your paper upside down and you have the MFC snow joke.

Carry on! B)

Ii can never understand why people want to go to snow, you go outside fall off your snowboard and your soaking wet, your better off going down the ISLAND and go surfing, and it dont cost a 1000 bucks, thats probably why i live in cranny.

JtR, you'd be hard pressed to find a place where you can get a nice cold beer for $9 a pop near the beach, easily done at the Snow

Is that true? Where did you get that info from? Because the affluent Demons supporters really do go to the snow. Does it just work on both levels....

Meh. With all this global warming going on we only have to listen to that tired old joke for a couple more years.

Also with the push into Casey the joke won't quite fit any more. Not sure how many bogans head up to the snow ?

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.
