Winning is the thing where you have tiger blood and finish on a higher score than your opponent. I know it's been a long time since we've won anything, so I don't blame you for not understanding.

We won the coin toss on Saturday.

I rejoiced.

Kill me.

If I do, it will make it considerably easier to be here till you die.

I am going OS in two weeks oh how I wish it was this weekend.

The next week is going to be agony.

Imagine if you were the FOJ sponsor right now. The publicity you would have received would be priceless.

I will try again at home and see what happens, because it is happening to my office computer.

What ever happened to JATZ CRACKERS

Late yesterday i had taken about all I could concerning AFL Football and the MFC.

So I made myself a promise that I would Ignore anything to do with the AFL and the MFC for 24 hours.

All was was going well till I picked up todays Hun and wham what a head line.

But I held fast and did not read any of the story ( that was really hard ), I avoided radio by listening to a CD when out in the car.

The result has been unexpected, I feel very calm and I have a new prospective on my liesure time.

You know there are 1 billion people in China who do even know that the MFC exists.

So I am now looking at the MFC in a new light.

DO NOT OBSESS

We are a football club that is towards the bottom of the competition in a number of areas.

So what I have had a lot of fun times as well as a lot of crap.

We may well be crap for the balance of this decade but i have been here before I know what to expect.

I find it hard to believe we will win on saturday in Perth but who knows the margin might be less than I think.

I get a lot of fun out of Demonland and the majority of you dees supporters out there even if as a football team we are very ordinary.

I cannot change what happens to the MFC, if it fails to exist in 2020 so be it i might not exist either.

The up side is enjoy life do not let the Bloody AFL get you down.

There will be plenty more headlines this year.

While not a headline, we see Nicholson suspended for a match for drinking. What's tomorrow?

This club drains you so much that I actually spent time thinking it would be ok to finish last this year, as we could virtually rebuild our mid field in one draft. Imagine getting Viney with our 2nd round pick, the 2 best mids in the country with pick 1 and first compo pick being pick 2 and then say another good mid at 10 or 11, whatever that compo pick is. You really could become a top side if these kids became the basis of a new midfield for us. We are ok forward and back and in the ruck IMO.

I know we won't finish last but I just couldn't help thinking, one more bad year and then a decade of good years to follow, I could live with that.

Redleg you may get your wish and we will not need to tank either.

However we have no chief of recruiting who is going to pick them?

But then again it seems the chiefs of the last ten years have not set the world on fire.

Perhaps we are better of without one, It is hard to believe you could not do as well picking them out of a barrel.

Given his record of advising us who he would pick, WJ could do no worse than the paid professionals who have done the job for us.

Our head of recruiting for 2012 is Todd Viney. At a guess I think he will be doing the picking.

Just because he was a past champion Demon, that gives me no comfort.

Who is in charge of player development at the club, is it Todd?

Where did you get this info?

He is not listed as such on the MFC web site

Then again Greg Healy is not list as a board member either.

Some now getting their jollies from GWS being thrashed and $ playing poorly. I guess I am one of them.

A strange calm has come over me.

Late yesterday I realised that we are indeed due for a very sad and depressing year.

So I have given up all expectations for 2012.

The only real thing to look forward to now is the trading period and Draft day.

With a bottom or near bottom finish, comp draft picks, and talk of new jumper sponsors in September and October

That should provide something to look forward to.

Of course it is also helped by the fact that I will be out of town next week so I can largely ignore that result.

The off OS for the next three games, in the good old USA you really have to look for AFL results to find any.

So bliss has arrived no more MFC for 4 weeks, that sounds like heaven.

I am off there next week and miss Cats, Hawks, Saints and Dogs games. Might not be missing too many wins.

As for your comment about the season being over, I think 2 games in with one at Pattersons against WC is too early to call.

Ok Mate see you later in May.

Good luck in the USA

Not sure what has happened but I have just checked the Newspapers, Radio, TV and Internet!

Nothing disasterous is being reported about the MFc.

What the hell is going on.

  • 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.

    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.
