I know it's in the sig

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!

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.

Can you bring this up when we are decent?

I can't go to my uncles with this right now.

Timing is everything 45HG16.

:D

:unsure::lol:

Might have to *Bump* this thread in the week proceeding the QB clash next season.

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out
