OD, I remember a time years ago when we were both complaining about getting flogged by 15 goals regularly. I think we said something like 'When we are good, we will look back at this time and laugh about how crap we were'. Well, I guess that time is now ...

    I could not get to the grand final either!

    But then again neither could Eddy. 2021 was not good for him as he lost the Presidency of the Filth and blocked from coming to the AFL Grand Final. Things are getting better!

    All too true. Maybe next season is the time for that?

    Oh dear! We can't beat the lowly Dorks. 

    BRING ON 2022!

    As this season is not looking good for a grandfinal win. However, I do hope I am proven wrong.

    My neighbour is still flying his Western Bulldogs flag, it may be time to play my favourite song “It’s a grand old flag” for the next week.

    Unfortunately, ours houses are too far apart. Backup plan should be to build a new shed that is really close to my neighbour and buy a really big (loud) sound system. Then educate him on the best theme song in the AFL.

    I should keep playing until his flag is removed. How can anyone contaminate blue and red with white?

    Frog, your neighbour is trying to get under your skin. [censored] you off. 

    Your reaction needs to be tempered. 

    If he is a big thug, with busted nose and lots of ink,  and works at the abattoir or glue factory, invite him in, crack a frosty and tell him that the Dogs are your second favourite team and will win the flag next year. Delicately suggest that this would be the time to fly his Doggies flag. Tell him that you will fly one too and hope this does not eventuate. Tell him that if the Doggies beat the Dees in the Granny next year, you will move suburb. If you live in Doggie territory move anyway. If he lives in Demon territory diplomatically suggest that he could make a killing on his house and buy a mansion in Doggie land, if there is one. 

    Alternatively if you have the physical advantage and the guy happens to be a mild mannered accountant and attends the local Baptist church, Invite him in, throw up over his black shiny shoes, use offensive language, and take his flag down yourself. Tell him that you recently converted to the Muslim faith and don’t take kindly to Doggie supporting Christian evangelicals.

    I am still recovering from a stroke and a qualified Accountant. So not much of a fighter. But as a Demon 😈 supporter, I am clearly the winner and will take on all comers.

    Over here you live in either a Beagle or Shockers area. I feel like a high priest trying to convert the barbarians to a real AFL team.

    I had my Melbourne flag flying outside until yesterday. But this one would be an awesome option.

    I wonder if there is anyone who we drafted at pick 1 years ago, who did the dirty on us and never won a flag at his next two clubs, who is thinking "what if".  Karma indeed.

    Time to drop an MFC membership form anonymously in the letter box, followed up by a 'Demons are Premiers' poster the next day.

    Bit of a violent streak there Ernest, even for you. Maybe it is time to cut back on the booze for a bit and focus on banana bread ...

    Beagle or shockers ?

    Best wishes with your recovery,  Frog. And despite your profession, you have a sense of humour. Well done and I applaud your missionary zeal.

    Brilliant idea! 

    A week full of MFC membership forms should do the trick.

    Beagles (Eagles) and Shockers (Dockers). I live in Western Australia. But was unable to get a ticket to this years Grand Final. We should have built a bigger stadium.

    Accountants have a great sense of humour! Just look at all the very creative accounting many of us do!

    • NON-MFC: Round 09

      Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.
