Great Win But?

Recommended Posts

Just wondering, I wasnt at the game and I didnt get to see what happened when the team song was sung?

Did Bailey join in and belt out a few notes??

I heard the song on the radio and could only hear the passion.

It was great feeling Knowing the boys finally had a chance to sing it I hope he joined in.

Been a long time coming, lets hope they get to sing it a lot more over the next few weeks

The Richmond game now takes on a whole new meaning and places a lot more empahsis on the boys

They have won their first game and now they Must follow it up with a comprehensive win over the Sad Tigers

Bailey would never join in, as he stated the week before, it is the players who play and win

Loved how Bails gave the supporters and members a pump-up too. Nice to finally get some public acknowledgement for those of us who have sat at the 'G week after week through hard, seemingly endless winters where there has been rarely a glimmer of hope. I, for one, will be walking around with that very same smile he talked about in his press conference last night. Hope it might last for two weeks when we pump the Tigers next week.

What was the go with all of the supporters in the rooms afterwards?

I was watching it on the tele and when they went to interview Brad Green, there was a mass of supporters off to his left-hand side.

Is that normal?

No it is not, it is usually a few family and friends, but believe Chris Connoly got carried away with the win and threw the doors open........

That might be Baileys view but to me every person employed by the Melbourne football club is a part of that win, everything they contribute has some bearing somewhere.

To the staff who help run the club,to runners on the field, to the individual coaches who help the players get to where they are on the day

Let alone the coach himself. All are Integral parts of the team , all put in their bit of course all are not in a position to join in the song.

Bailey was there and should have joined in and been as much a part of that song as were the players they may be the ones on the field as Bailey states, but it takes a lot to get them there and have them perform. Bailey is as much apart of the win as they are. Wether he has footy boots on or not, therefore I dont see anything wrong with a public display of passion

Does anyone?

Highlight for me; Jack Trengoves face. He absolutely LOVED the win! He was filled with joy and I have the feeling he will remember this game for a very long time.

Does anyone think the fact that his first AFL win was against Adelaide will have any kind of relevance to anything at all?

I love this guy. His character alone is employable, and his happy go lucky ways are immensly hard to resist!

I've always been one for the players should be the only ones singing it but I agree that a huge number of people are involved in the whole thing and should enjoy it too... Maybe a 2nd larger circle around the players singing it every now and again...

Same. I kept an eye out for the reactions of the likes of Trengove, McKenzie, Scully, Grimes etc and you could see how much it meant to them, which was memorable to witness as a supporter of the club during what is potentially a historic period.

Not that I'm getting my hopes up.

Maybe it just maybe it was the players who have decided that's how they want to celebrate the win. And fair enough too.

If the others feel entitled then lets have ring a rosy around the inner group.

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    PREGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    The Demons head back to Melbourne after an embarrassing loss to the Dockers to take on the Magpies at the MCG on Kings Birthday. With a calf injury to Lachie Hunter and Jacob van Rooyen possibly returning from injury who comes in and who goes out?
