bad late 80's film clip

late 80's I am guessing form the players, the hair and the hot synthesizer sounds.

Some great shots like ricky Jackson stuck in a locker, Sean Wight playing bag pipes, O'Dwyer with a ranga kid, Feeby twins in the same jumper (two headed Tasmanians)

This is gold

    I have this song on Vinyl at home. My Dad bought it for me when I was a kid. What a stroll down memory lane.

    Such a funny song. I'm pretty sure Chris Connelly was involved in singing this song or something. I'll have to pull it out and check again.

    hahaha... Go Dees!

    Gippy

    Isn't it ever? I remember listening to it over and over when I was younger. Surprised I didn't wear out the record.

    Classic.

    Much much better than a few year back when the club decided to 'update' the club song and turn it into an electro-abomination.

    Still makes me cringe...

    I remember Jimmy Stynes appearing on Fox FM at the time trying to pump it up and have the song chart in the Top 40.

    North Melbourne, from memory, had the "September Shuffle" maybe a a season or two earlier?

    FWIW, I think the English 1st division clubs started this, maybe Liverpool? The Chicago Bears had the "Superbowl Shuffle".

    Edit: looks like '89? Highlights include the 88 prelim vs Carlton, and the production crew are wearing "DOMINATE IN '88" t-shirts.

    THANKYOU so much!

    Definitely Chris Connolly singing the song - mentioned it last year to him and wasn't too keen on chatting about it :)

    I had this on cassette and was truly shattered when the tape player in the car ate it.

    So happy right now

    That is awesome.

    The club should remake the video for this song for another Christmas video.

    Agree Clint. What a great memory.

    Update the vision and you have another great video.

    Ahh yes...remember that day fondly...was a guest of a mate of dad's.. ( an essendon member..mate,,not dad !! lol ) he was all chesty and vocal til that last quarter.. three of us got up ( [censored]..for reasons that become obvious later ) on a table back at their members bar...and proceded to sing the Melbourne song as much to our surprise as anyones as it really isnt the cleverist thig to do ..lol... yet no one said a thing They were all sheep; all bleating the same disbelief...not sure if it was of us or the mighty Dees winning. Either way was a hoot.. and we didnt stick around to long after that..:D

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
