For starters my research may be a little off - but you can go check/correct for yourself.

I cannot help it, I hate this team more than any other.

I am Melbourne and I am Melbourne through and through, perhaps this is why I hate them so much. But if they did not exist, our team would have won a lot less.

Not only have Melbourne won 6 Premiership out of 7 Grand Finals against that filthy team, but we have also recored the following:

In our history, we have played Collingwood in 20 finals. We have won 16 of them. One of Collingwood's wins was in 1897 in the Round Robin - not really a final.

Since 1937, Melbourne have won 14 of the 15 finals the two clubs have faced off in - including 5 grand finals.

At one stage, the Dees has won 9 straight finals and at present we have won the last 5.

Suck it filth.

It was for four in a row, not six. We won 9 straight finals against them including 4 premierships. It doesn't hurt that much. Maybe rpfc is right it should come up later, maybe he was more correct when he said Melbourne fans were self loathing.

It was for 4 in a row - but had we won that one and because we won the next 2 - we could have had 6 in a row.

So are you enferring that '59-60 don't count. If we had beaten Collingwood we would have ended our run of GF wins at 6. And no Team would ever touch that.

don't you understand, 58 would have been 4 straight, 59 & 60 would have made it 6 straight. 58 they changed Barassi's jumper no, that was a HUGE stuff up!

Exactly i was inferring to 45's earlier post. he stated it was 4 & not 6.

If my Auntie had balls she'd be my uncle.

Losing '58 cost us winning 4 in a row - you really cannot argue that. Who knows what would have happened later. Maybe losing that one spurred us to win the next two.

Losing '58 cost us four on the trot, fairly simple. And why are we delving on the negative here? That's a bloody good finals record.

I'm pretty happy with 5 flags from 6 GFs.

In a effing row!!!

And 45HG16, yes, we are a funny lot.

I don't know if it is to our detriment, but we tend to easily think a bruise is a gangrenous growth that requires amputation.

That wasn't a subtle metaphor. Apologies.

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    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.
