Household Feuds


Still Waiting

Recommended Posts

In our home my son and I are rabid Demon followers.

My other 1/2 is a C'wood tragic although she hates Malthouse, Cloke, Fraser and Johnson. She has pics on the laundry wall of Buckley, McKenna, Rose, etc plus a smaller replica of the 90 Premiership cup.

I have all my Dees stuff in the study including team of the century print, signed footies, mugs, scarves, caps, books, etc . When/if we beat the Pies I know I wont get fed that night, unless I get take away to bring home. She really cracks the sads.

Sometimes she does the same when they lose important games to other sides too, but I wont mind a bit if I have to buy take away this w/e. I really hate Eddiewood and his miserable cohorts.

Does anyone else have a partner or family member that causes grief in the home when their team misses out on a win?

I too unfortunately have a Collingwood partner. I try to be supportive, but I really struggle. She will never switch, but I'm adamant that should we ever have kids, they will be demons!

I have a wife who hates sport, and avoids me when sport is on.

I use to have a filth g/f but I made her come to all the Dee's games and she fell in love with Woey and I converted her!

Condemned 84, a job well done. Should be an award for conversions made! :lol:

My Mum cried back in the day when Collingwood lost a GF to Carlton.

Now she'd cry if they won one. Hates them with a passion.

A great conversion.

Wooww someone teach the me the ways of conversion :lol:

My girlfriend goes for the Collingwood but is not a fanatic. I am trying to convert her but she always says "Melbourne don't have any hot players"

Maybe we should forget about a tall forward and an elite midfielder and get some good looking studs? ;)

There is your problem, see they turn for a good looking bloke, so hope we draft a good looker and then you buy them badges put up posters etc and pray they do a shot with their top off and they they are signed sealed and delivered.

Ahhh I see, Maybe the Dees should use Cale as the pin up boy? He would be ripped under that shirt of his ;)

Should start by going to Queens birthday together and doing the MFC march, make it tradition.

Then buy her an MFC scarf.

I've bought about 10 this year and when a kids birthday party comes around, instint gift.

Next is MFC footy's.............

Got to plant the seeds.

Likewise.

My mother and one of my older brothers go for Collingwood. My poor 1 year old son doesn't know if he's supposed to say "go dees" or "go pies" when the football is on TV. My three year old just says the team of whoever she is trying to impress at the time.

I'm doing my best, but I'm severely outnumbered unfortunately.

No. Marrying a Melbourne supporter was part of my strict selection criteria for choosing a wife. And she puts together a mean PowerPoint presentation.

Whoever pays the Bills wins. It's easy. Otherwise throw them out.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
