I fear my esteemed upper class mate Earl Hood may not being enjoying his free trade non genetic modified latte this morning. I have noted, sadly, that his name does not seem to appear as a gongee on list printed on this day of celebration in honour of our esteemed monarch's nativity.

His selfless work in dealing with the eerr .... dregs of our community is again unrewarded and unrecognized.

Seems it’s gone the way of the Joel Smith tests positive thread aka the Demonland Bermuda Triangle.

It was not that long ago people were saying the Dees would fall apart without Hogan. Glad to see they were wrong. I tend not to follow ex players as I lose interest once they leave the club. I mu

Only problem Biff is I am here in Melbourne.

Redleg is the man there at present.

In Miami tomorrow, anyone want any salsa.

By the way did I get a gong for my untiring support of the MFC?

sadly not redleg, apparently your association with certain landed gentry from the romsey region, and shady characters from a certain disreputable establishment in st. kilda seems to have counted against you this time

Partying with the beautiful people in South Beach, Red? As for the award, if they awarded it for that, the honour wouldn't be so exclusive.

Gongs are awarded to recognise far less significant efforts.

Unfortunately the only reward for "untiring MFC support" is the inner feeling of peace and tranquility in knowing that you can overcome the deepest extremes of all emotions to triumph and place the rest of the tawdry circumstances in life into their shallow perspectives.

Expect same to continue today.

Bad day at the footy.

Uncle bitters was socialising with the Ox, Rivers,jnr, Tappy etc and kept quietly missing his shout as he warms his nest egg.

Maple stole my lunch and left .

Collingwood won.

It's a cruel world.

Apart from the result, I had a good day at the footy. Joined the march to the G at the last minute, managed to get close to Neale, the PM and Gill (didn't realise the dill was so tall), as well as Eddie, Neale and Bill Shorten. Even managed a quick word with Neale and gave him a pat on the back. Then saw some play from the Dees that I haven't seen for some time -- dash, pace and skill. There were the usual clangers, and the margin was pretty much Cloke and the maggots, but finally some spirited footy --- just not enough of it.

Call me a glass-half full dreamer (OD, your cue :)), but there it is.

Strange MFC supporters.

We now enjoy losing.

Anything less than a belting is considered joyful.

Come on, OD, you know better than that. Would I a prefer a full glass? Of course. Do I like the fact that we lost? No. Can I change anything about it? No. Can I do anything other than yell from the sidelines? No.

So I can either say "#^R$#$!!! We lost again!" (plenty of threads for that :lol:), or say "Hmm.. what we the good things about today?". I'll take the latter any time.

Oh come on R and B you were baiting me.

I said elsewhere it was funny leaving the ground as I was smiling that we did not get belted.

Thought you would be proud of my skills, Biffen. Besides, I was just trying to encourage you to make healthier choices.

Are you happy about anything Old Dee?

Oh, and being MFC supporters makes us all a little strange by definition.

Would I do that? :lol: I didn't see your other post, as I tend not to read every thread in detail after we lose. FWIW I share your sentiment.

Every thing except the MFC.

It gives me grief year in year out.

The really sad bit is I am too stupid to leave.

What can I say OD?

The MFC team still sucks.

To me it all about results which we see do little of these days.

But the MFC has moved from be the worst team in the league to the second or third worst.

That is an improvement!

Plus we could have all been Carlton Supporters, those guys will be having some long term pain.

So things are not all bad.

Doesn't seem to have affected other winners.

    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

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol
