Featured Replies

Posted

Hey guys,

Ive just moved to Perth, I sat and watched the collywobbles games in a sports bar with not one other AFL fan in the prescinct.

Does anyone know if theres a group of Melbourne supporters here that go and watch the games somewhere on a regular basis?

Im sick of walking into pubs and asking if the AFLs on and these imbreds just reply "sorry we dont play GAYFL"

Cheers

There is Joan and Rod LAWSON run the Western Demons and I know they meet regularly to watch matches at The Melbourne Hotle in town and also the Mighty Quinn in Tuart Hill, if you go on the website and join up you will get regular updates on functions etc www.westerndemons.com

When was the last time we won a game in Perth?

Is it as damming as our South Australian record?

My crystal ball says round 2, this year.

I will bet they are both better than our Geelong record!

Can you gaze deeply into it and see if get close the Hawks next weekend?

The Bentleigh Club will be a rocking that night, but it still doesn't tell me what i asked!! Hope you are right though.

Geelong was 2006 i think. I know ND cracked the win & a draw.

Before that we were coached by Swooper.

It's seeing a similar result to the Collingwood game with Jack Watts having the pill on a string.

I think we have won 2 games at Geelong in the last 25 years plus a 30 goal loss now that takes some tossing

Have fun at the Bentleigh, I will be at the game.

You had me up to the last 8 words.

Are you sure you did not have a long lunch today!

Sh!t it is a decade! No wonder sides line up to smash us sideways.

Neeld is going to be another Swooper Northey. Tough.

Enjoy the game. Give Wet Coke heaps.

I'm thinking the whole sentence suggests a long lunch.

My 13 year old daughter has been a member for 8 years she has yet to see the MFC win at Subi. :mad:

I hope they improve this year My daughter bailed out when she was 12 got tired of going to games that we never won.

Took up with Essendon ( still there ) and got a couple of Premierships for her troubles.

She is now a rusted on Bomber

Probably a good decision.

Hope you have more luck.

It is all about winning when you are 12.

Hopefully we will turn the corner for her this year.

Hey - I'm about to move to Perth for 3 months for work. Unfortunately I'm going a few days before Rnd 1 (I've been hanging out for it since September) but I did get a fix on Saturday night.

One consolation is that I can go to Rnd 2 v the Weagles. I'm planning to buy tickets through the club to sit with the other Dees supporters- do many people do that?

I was in Europe for the West Coast Game in 2002 but remember the win against Freo it was pouring down and they should have beaten s but let us off the hook and I remember thinking during the 3/4 if they dont put us away, in the final quarter we will be kicking to the city end with a howling westerly an driving rain we can win this. Thats what happened Vardy starred for us, I also think it was two or 3 years ago on fathers day we lost to West Coast by about 8 or 9 points but should have taken them, Crystal ball says Round 23 win against the Dockers to finish off the year.

Yeah mate. They poke us up behind the goals at Subi. Not the best seats but at least you can talk with other normal people.

I too am also making the move west in the coming weeks, and would love to find some fellow Dees to watch games with.

PM me with details of where is good to watch the footy, grab a pint and a good meal.

On a side note, anyone know of any jobs for an Environmental Planner out west?

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
