- latest news re hawks. Roughhead has gone down. If its serious they might struggle to field a team against us round 1.

 

Waiting for confirmation - early talk is a knee of some sort. Just not sure how serious.

Lets Hope we pick a side who can beat the Dawks. Exploit all these weaknesses & holes they have.

Let's not just pick a team of players we think are ready, Let's aim to SMASH these bloody Hawks just like they did to us 2 years ago in Round 1

That will get the membership numbers up as we all know who visits our home ground in Round 2.

Go Demons-"If it Bleeds we can kill it" an old but very true statement.

Really hope he is ok and availible round one. We have a few injuries but the hawks are in a worse situation than us. I thought they were a chance this year but injuries are changing my mind.

A tad dramatic. Although I would love nothing more than to beat the Hawks round 1. Hell we'd be in the 8!

Not Dramatic at all if you were in the crowd in '87 & '88. We have a big chance to beat Hawthorn if they are so depleted and that's the attitude i want to see in Round 1

A HFC official said it's not serious - according to SEN. Just precautionary.

Let's not get too excited. I'm sure he'll be there for round 1.

But let us not forget old Roughy may be feeling a little Tender come round 1....Memories of Nieta's Hip & Shoulder on McCabe are flashing before my eyes!!! (It was Mc Cabe wasn't it-pretty much finished his career!!)

Yeah, I hope he's allright too, we don't want the opposition to fall off the edge of the world so we can win. Then we'd be just like the Colliwobbles.

What???????????????????????

And again, what????????????????????????

Who gives a rat's about the opposition, they don't about us.

Agree Redleg, I want the worse side Hawthorn can put out there (unless they will sitll beat us, cos that would crush me for the year.)

Don't tell me you have sympathy towards the Hawks [censored]?? You must be a lot younger than i. i will never tire of seeing Hawthorn being beaten!! :)


Thanks very much. This thread made me smack myself in the face about 5 times. Far out

And again, what????????????????????????

Who gives a rat's about the opposition, they don't about us.

Exactly.

Who they put on the track is their issue?

Given our young side and the hell we have been through in the past 3 years why shouldn't we take a win that is there and it should be celebrated?

A small step in the bigger scheme of things to a flag in a few years time but a big short term step in young players belief in themselves and their confidence. Worth 8 points. Its going to be a long year for young bodies.

No, I was at the 87 finals series. I was devestated, I cried, but I don't hold any grudges like you. Im not interested in watching another teams players fall over so we can benefit. Especially given our situation. Having said that if it was a grand final I hope they all bloody fall over.

Really hope he is ok and availible round two.

Fixed.

just found this from the hawthorn twitter "Roughead left the field in the 2nd qtr with a knee injury. Roughead now walking freely with compression bandage. Precautionary only"

You obviously weren't at the '88 Grand Final though, that's obvious. Of course i hold a grudge against Hawthorn, I Hate all clubs except the MFC including the AFL.

Sick of seeing every one else win cups, particularly the ring ins of the past 20 odd years. :)

Move on bro. History is great, but hanging on to 24 year old pain is just ridiculous for a sporting incident. Move on

Move on to where? This club aint nasty enough, that's why we do not win.

Really? I thought it was because our players aren't as good as the ones from other teams.

Hitler/Mousselini/Ivan the Terrible

Vlad the Impaler/Manson/Bush

Bin Laden/Amrosi/Zedong

Judas/Hussein/Jones

Lucifer/Jack the Ripper/Stalin

Mugabe/Pengli/Behram

COACH: Kavorkian

Would obviously be one of the best lineups in history if "nasty" is the only criteria. I'm sorry to say that "nasty" means nothing when you have players dislocating shoulders and breaking jaws and doing their knees and tearing their hamstrings for the umpteenth time.

This thread is BAD KARMA.

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
