Cam Bruce has announced his retirement from the Hawks.

Really a pity it was from Hawthorn and not from the MFC.

Should have been at the Dees during 2011.

Good luck in the future CB.

You gave me a lot of joy over the years at the Dees.

Agree.

I don't know exactly what took place through negotiations etc, but I gather there's much to do with MFC's list management and Bruce's true market value at the time being the sticking points.

Had he signed on reasonable circumstances, he'd have chalked up 250 games as a one club player.

Not to be. That said, he was a good servant and representative of the MFC during his time at Melbourne.

Is it just me?

I think I have lost enthusiasm for the season.

Left the game on saturday and retired to the pub for a couple before the trip home.

My mate said it is three weeks before the next game at the G

Just looked at each other and the feeling was who cares.

I think the results so far, injuries, certainity of results and "we have been here every year for the last 5" have drained my will.

Struggled to get even the enthusiasm to even come on Demonland till yesterday.

I think I am over the multi threads on here talking about which players will go, which players to draft etc.

When on earth will we have the prospect of making the finals, discussing the possibility of winning games start?

Early july and another season is done.

I used to worry about losing games now I expect to lose

I think the MFC have drained me.

Welcome to the masochists club.

No, it's just not you.

I want the feeling of enthusiasm back....the spring in the step.

It won't happen whilst the cue is in the rack.

The cue can leave the rack after we lose to Port and the Dogs beat the Blues.

This is exactly what I am talking about Redleg.

When did we start hoping not to win?

Any way I keep telling you there is no problem.

We have one possibly 2 wins to go this year.

It does not matter what the teams above us do

If Port and Dogs win this week I will agree with you.

Correct IMO. Buy some breathing space. Otherwise we may see a GC or GWS game I don't want to see.

I will be very happy to watch those two games, one live at the G and one on TV, hoping for a win.

I am with you there.

In fact Redleg I hope we win more games I do not give a stuff where we finish on the ladder.

I want the rush of winning.

To hell with draft picks we have done that for 5 years.

Just win games and worry about drafting in November.

Now calm down Old Dee. Why as a football fan would you want your team to win?

Seriously I have said to myself, " self this is the last year that you should put up with this sh-t" . To that end, I want the best drafting/trading position possible and then I will pray to God that we don't stuff up. We can fix our side with one good off season and I think this is the one to do it. It really is now or never for many Dees fans.

Sadly I agree not sure there are any more trips to the well left for a lot of Dees fans.

While I want us to win as many games as possible Redleg The reality is 2 is I think the Max.

I really think we will struggle to beat both GWS and GCS.

Go Dees ( spoken in a soft voice with no conviction )

Poor old Brad Scott. He can't sleep at night worrying about the state of the game.

Poor li'l possum

What could we suggest for him to get some sleep, would hate to see him miss training - apart from Stilnox but

Great drug with a bad reputation DC

Handy one to blame when you screw up.

A bit like blaming the car when some idiot does some stupid and causes pain and death.

Send some free samples to Scotty.

I hear there are plenty floating around at the Tigers.

Well who would have believed it. Last night I blended a banana into my diet shake and kept reblending after each cup. Ended up swallowing a whole lot of air with my drink. Up all night burping from both ends. I don't blame the banana but what a night.

Whats that got to do with footy, well nothing, but we have been so bad that I have resorted to this rubbish.

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    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.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    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
