Agree with you, hopefully Bulldogs to win the flag, they are the least arrogant. Otherwise Saints.

Yeah, that's the funny thing about St Kilda. Supremely arrogant supporter base, yet have achieved little success.

Which ever teams put out Carlton, Essendon and the Filth (and to a lesser extent, Adelaide). Could not care less who wins the Flag out of the remaining 4 teams, so long as it is not one of the first 4, particularly the first 3.

At least, if it was Adelaide, we wouldn't hear about it over here.:P

Yeah it could be like losing the Ashes, simply never mentioned, move on to something else, spring racing whatever. Their local news could blow their trumpets all they liked and we just get on with life oblivious to it all and looking ahead to next year :D

(plus we get the pleasure of seeing a few of the scum get belted, like the bombers tonite hopefully...)

Definitely not Carlton, Collingwood or Essendon nor an interstate team.

Dogs, Saints or Cats in that order.

Posted

Being born and breed in the western suburbs I have a real soft spot for the Dogs! Go Dogs!

For the weekend:

Friday Night: Couldn't of cared less. hate them both.

Saturday: Western Bulldogs

Saturday Night: Carlton

Sunday: St. Kilda

St. Kilda for the flag.

After growing up watching the Dees and saints battle out for the wooden spoon for the majority of the late 70`s and nearly all of the 80`s, I desperately want them to win it. be happy for the doggies though.

Posted

Not one single person on here wanted Essendon to win last night. One person wants a Collingwood victory on Sunday (YOU know who you are ;) )

I want the Doggies to go all the way, will be at the 'G today waving my Demons scarf at every doggy goal!

- Collingwood (I HATE St Kilda!)

....

How could you...

Truth be told, I'm not much of a St Kilda fan either. Their supporters aren't much better than Collingwood's or Richmond's. But we can't have Collingwood succeed in any way shape or form. And I wouldn't mind seeing one of St Kilda or Dogs end their drought.

Its such an empty feeling sitting at the G on gf day and watching happy players and supporters celebrating a flag. Don't know why i put myself through it every year.

I empathise with you and all other Melbourne Supporters....45 years without a flag is far too long....even the woods pinched one in 1990 to break their drought.

By the way I watched a replay the other day of the last quarter of the 1987 prelim at arctic park. Apart from the well documented "Stynes over the mark" incident, I was reminded of the easy shots missed by Campbell, Yeats and Eishald.....another bad memory DOH.

Let's hope we have better fortunes over the coming few years....though I must say I do not think Bailey is the man for the job.....I am hoping Gazza makes his move into coaching and pays the Club back for the many opportunities he has enjoyed. He is clearly a passionate Melbourne man and still young enough to do a great job developing our next premiership team.

It was a good first week. Only slight disappointment was the doggies getting beat. They could have done with Robbo.

Next week I'm going for:

Bulldogs

Adelaide

Having watched Geelong, they have a way to go to win another flag. They struggled to hold on in the last qtr. On form, Saints v. Crows is looking good for the GF.


Posted

As long as Collingwood don't win the Grand Final, I really don't care who does. I still think Geelong will go all the way, but really it's open to anyone. Wouldn't mind seeing the Bulldogs win it though.

I just hope Adelaide can put in another brilliant display up forward again this week.

HT, This week I would assume your with me on the crows?

You would assume correct. With you 100%. :)

Go Crows! :blink:

Posted

It was a great weekend for ALL football suporters this weekend; Essendon, Carlton & Collingwood all lost their final. Now Im crossing my fingers for the Scum to take out the Filth out in straight sets (then the Scum to be knocked out in the Prelim final) :lol: :D

Go Brisbane go!

There is a reason why you are my second team, despite by a long long margin. The way you toyed with Carlton, making them think they had it won then [censored] slapping them into submission was just a thing of beauty.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
