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

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.

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.

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 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.

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the
