4pm Light Tower 2

Recommended Posts

Yeah Sarah is a mate of mine from college. She just started by sending an email round and then things started gathering momentum to the stage now where I think now there is like A LOT of people getting involved and I think (don't quote me) the club has organised free entry for everyone. She was able to organise the publicity with the Age too which is a credit to her.

I'd courage everyone to come along!

See you there.

25 great years... 2003???

1987 was a great year. Remember the last home-and-away round against the bulldogs? Then waiting for the result from Geelong. Then carving up North Melb and the Swans at the 'G in successive finals? OK Waverley Park broke our hearts, but there was Robbie and Ricky and Alan Johnson and of course Rod Grinter.

Hiya heartbeatstrue

I remember it well too, was a great feeling after watching years of being happy if we lost but put in a good showing. The sound that went around the western oval in '87 was electric, standing in line for ages for finals tickets with other Dees supporters who also had never bought finals tickets for their own team before too was a hell of allot of fun

We actually beat the dorks at Waverly that day but for a goal umpire signaling a ball that hit the post as a goal to the dorks

what could have been, I was shattered

Yeah the feeling through those finals was magic. I was shattered all week, and doubly so for Robbie.

Unrelated to the way that this topic has gone. Just wanted to say I made the 4 o'clock and then was stoked to have just bought my membership and put on the new scarf just in time for Jimmy to arrive, sing the song and enter with high hopes. It was a truly disgusting game and i'm still happy with the investment I made today. Now I have to go see a shrink because I can't wait to go again next week to see us take on the cats.

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
