On the way to Springsteen concert, as I type Redleg.

You will have to cheer for me.

Good luck we can do with a bit in 2014.

Win would be really nice but I have zero confidence.

In fact if you can have less than zero ( sure you cannot) then I have it.

I can't see us winning tonight unless the Tigers don't give it their all. What I want to see are the new personnel and some improvement especially in the midfield. A close game would be a good result.

    Agree entirely RL. Let's see what some of these blokes have to offer. Eg Toumpass, Watts and Dom Barry. Would have loved to have seen Hogan.

    Lacking rhythm Bitty?

    Back in the sixties/seventies the church tried to sell the rhythm method to good catholics. I thought it referred to rate of stroke and well .. look at me now. The church has much to answer for.

    You've just made Redleg's day.

    And another 10 000 Dees fans WJ me included.

    Went to Springsteen last night and missed the big win.

    On the way home after getting the result My daughter said "perhaps it is you Dad"

    She might be onto something

    Finally the solution!

    Come on OD let's have a glimpse of optimism. A memorable Dees win and the Aussies giving South Africa a touch up.

    Btw I couldn't help but notice how calm but intense Roos looked in the coaches box. There is certainly a gravitas about him. I can still conjure up visions of Neeld constantly scribbling (obviously useless) notes.

    I haven't felt this upbeat since the day I ran over a lyrebird.

    Read my over comments Bbo

    I have a Richmond mate around this morning to help with a domestic job.

    Oh joy today is about to get better.

    You must have been blinded by the light because you went to the badlands by river on the wrong side of the town instead of going to Etihad where Bernie announced, "I'm on Fire". Glory days are coming for those with hungry hearts.

    Was it a long walk home?

    A happy trip WJ

    The Dees won and it was a good concert spent with my daughter

    Sometimes it is hard to imagine a better friday night.

    In case you cannot see it Bbo here is my other comment

    WOW did not see that coming!

    "In actual fact I did not see anything last night went to Springsteen and got out to find we had won.

    I seriously thought we would struggle last night.

    Great way to start 2014 could not have been better considering the players missing.

    I can only imagine how good the players must have felt after the last two and a half years.

    Should bump along memberships next week.

    Go dees"

    Caution is not in my plan today!

    Perhaps he did some dancing in the dark? And were you born in the USA, WJ? :-)

    Disgusted they left Shannon Byrnes out of the final squad last night.

    Yeah they played that young kid number 24 who is obviously hopeless. Our future is clearly with Byrnes.

    Is that like killing a mocking bird? You sound like a sick man, BBO :-)

    Another six months and he will be ancient history.

    May be some help at Casey

    Sat near the Coaches box last night. After the game I congratulated Jackson who sat in the box and he acknowledged me as he walked past me. I also congratulated Roos, who was deep in concentration as he walked to the rooms and didn't even offer a sideways glance to me.

    I have to agree with others that these two guys are our best recruits in ages.

    I really liked Georgiou's game. Thought he slotted in perfectly.

    We have added that much needed pace in Jay and Dom, to complement Blease and even Kent. We will be a much more composed and competitive team, when our best are on the park.

    Thought the experience of Vince and Cross was just sensational, they don't waste possessions and are just so clean with the ball.

    More like an albatross, I should think.

    You ran over an albatross as well? You must drive a tank! :-)

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
