The Truth behind the snow joke.


red&blue&true

Recommended Posts

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.

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 ?

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    PREGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    The Demons head back to Melbourne after an embarrassing loss to the Dockers to take on the Magpies at the MCG on Kings Birthday. With a calf injury to Lachie Hunter and Jacob van Rooyen possibly returning from injury who comes in and who goes out?
