My money is on someone from the thread!

Old Dee,Red and Bluebeard, Redlegs or belzebub59!

How could we possible go wrong?

It from a very reliable source, well closer to a drink really.

Mr Jack Daniels and Miss Coke Cola.

You certainly don't need me TBF.

Banana Daiquiri might be more appropriate!

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

Redleg this is pessimistic but I will believe it when I see it and not one minute before!

Having said that I am getting a little excited!

Feeling that little tremor are we?

We are still a very long way from being out of the woods bb

But at least we can now see the trees and we have a very good woodchopper.

Well Redleg now I believe.

Two years is way short of what I would have expected.

It will be interesting to see what is said at the Press conference.

Someone is sure to ask about the short length.

Does that mean he thinks we are way better than I think?

I hope so but I am not holding my breath.

However over all a very good day for the MFC.

I listened to the press conference.

I was impressed and it takes a bit these days for the MFC to impress me.

Between Mr. P Roos and Mr. P Jackson I think we have something that has not existed for a long time.

We have IMO two people at the top who know what the hell they are doing.

I now have something to look forward too at the MFC.

I am however still fairly pessimistic about our team for 2014 and the next couple of years.

A lot of work is required to make our list into a competitive unit.

The upside is I believe we now have the crew to achieve it.

I have hope this Spring and summer.

Missed most of the presser but hope to catch up later..

I did hear PJ talking about the PP and I think he said that the other 17 clubs will have to get over it if they want us to be competitive and improve the competition.

That pretty much covers it

He also said that it is the reason we have a commission, so that an overall view is taken.

I also get the feeling that a few of the clubs are blustering to appease their supporters, while privately they acknowledge the need for the Dees to improve quickly on the field.

Remember this is all about money. The AFL is all about money. AD gets more money as well the more the AFL makes. Clubs get more money for bigger attendances and an interested TV viewing audience. The TV fees rely on interesting games.

As I posted elsewhere just ask James Brayshaw who has been publicly outspoken against us one simple question," next time we play North as their home match, does he want a big or small crowd". That sums it all up.

The Paul Roos thread is only 17 pages behind this one. Get posting!

It doesn't count because it is actually now two threads combined.

And it will be dead and this one will live on.

As Jack Dyer would say it does not have the "Intestinal Fortitude" to continue.

    HIGHLIGHTS/LOWLIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Melbourne traveled across the continent to take on the Fremantle Dockers in sweltering conditions at Mandurah south of Perth in a game that delivered the club both its highlight and its lowlight in the first minute.  But first, let’s start by doing away with the usual cliches used in connection with the game. It was just a practice match and the result didn’t matter. Bad kicking is bad football. The game was played in severe heat, the swirly breeze played havoc with both teams resulting in

    The Dees were blown out of the water early by the Fremantle Dockers before fighting back and going down by 19 points in their final practice match of the preseason before Round 1. Remember it's only a practice match if you lose.

    TRAINING: Friday 28th February 2025

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you their observations from today's training session before the Demons head off to Perth for their final Practice Match. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning, not much wind, more than a couple of dozen spectators.  The players were up and about, boisterous and having fun. One of their last drills were three teams competing in a hard at it, handball game in a small area. Goody

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the
