Blues create history tonight, being the first time they have lost the opening 6 games.

Congrats on the new record.

 

Those Blues just keep on breaking records. Here is hoping they create two more in the next two weeks, to go 0-9.

I never like wishing defeat on another team, in this case, on-going misery. Maybe wish a little but not too hard.  Perhaps Essendon  but not others. Bad Karma.

We have been there ourselves and know what its like.

Better to celebrate our wins.

You missed the point. The 9th is against us.

Can't see them winning a game, Bolton will not see out the year if they are 0-11.

sure did Redders, but I am a day to day man. 

at a stretch week to week. 

I do not plan only hope to get to the next day or match. 

I must go to the Temple soon and seek redemption.

Let's hope the GCS don' do much better than their NEAFL side this week. They played Brisbane (with 11 listed AFL players including 2mPeter and Kane Kolij) and could only manage 4 behinds. Bris kicked 96 pts

5-3 and back to the G to play the super confident Blues, hopefully without their main tagger and umpire toucher Ed Curnow.

The worry is that we will be hot favourites.

Plus Melbourne does not do four wins in a row.

The GODS have still not forgiven us for 1965.

Big game this week. We have tended to play poorly against them for a few years even though they have been down the ladder.

We need to play at our best all game and drive them into our turf.

I don"t need to read this Frog.

With our recent wins, I was just emerging from my MFC induced depression to some semblance of balanced mood state. 

I was even planning to go on Sunday, with a feeling of quite optimism tempered by the ever present trepidation.

However,""there is a crack in everything, that's how the light gets in.""

Wrong post.

I don't understand, football is being discussed here. I must be lost.

No you are not, you are on the world's best thread, not just Demonlands'.

Red, apart from your good self and a few other stalwarts, the posts on this thread seem to have dropped off lately. 

Many of the old characters with their peccadillo's seemed to have disappeared into the ether, with the result that the only thing to talk about is football.

What's happened to all the chameleons, the perverts, the eccentrics, the boasters, the liars, the weirdos, the freaks, the nuts, the sad and lonely, the non conformists, the entrepreneurs, the drug peddlers, the pretenders, the psychotic, the delusional, the washed-up lawyers and academics and writers, the homeless, and the bizarre characters that used to come and go in the night on this thread. 

I think I have covered everyone. Oops, I forgot the dead. 

After 7 years, perhaps its time to close this thread.

Let's face it, this is not a thread for mundane, boring or repetitious comments about football.

Well, we will see if your suggestion brings the motley crew of characters back to life again and reinvigorates their posting.

I think the razing of that salubrious gentlemen's retreat upon Fitzroy St has rattled some far deeper than originally anticipated.

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Gather Round is upon us and the Demons face off against the Bombers who are on a 17 game losing streak. Who comes in and who goes out?

    The Casey Demons secured their first win of the season by the narrow margin of four points against the Box Hill Hawks at Casey Fields on Easter Sunday morning.

  • POSTGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

  • PODCAST: Gold Coast

    I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
