How will you celebrate a Dees' flag?


Ron Burgundy

Recommended Posts

I was speaking to a mate the other day. A Geelong supporter.

He said he was absolutely stoked about winning the flag last year. I asked him what he did following the win. His response - "just went out for dinner with the missus".

Couldn't believe it - simply ridiculous behaviour, and it shows that some fans have become completely complacent about success.

It made me think though - what we I do if we won a flag? I know it seems highly unlikely at the moment, but it's a nice thought nonetheless.

I think I would literally rip my head off and drown it in a beer barrel for a whole week. I'd probably also run around for a while in no particular direction.

It'd be weird if we were to a win a flag. I've never experienced that before.

What would you do?

I would celebrate with all the past players that played for Melbourne in heaven.

I was 11 when we last won a premiership, however I have no doubt I will not be around when we win the next one. Even if I live to 100 years of age.

If however they by per chance of a miracle win a premiership in the next 40 years. I would probably faint, then watch the replay to make sure I was not dreaming. Then I do not know what I would do.

I really don't know, I think I may get very emotional but just hope it's something I have to think about one day! Of course I will have plenty of porters to drink on the day and the ensuing days

Lay in a bath of champaign while downing a bottle of absinthe and snacking on a platter of fine cheeses and tropical fruits...then my alarm would go off, I would wake up and ponder who the MFC should be looking at with their two top ten draft picks.

I would rent a defibrillator

I would put aside my hatred of illicit drugs, and fear of needles.

I would say a tearful goodbye to the remaining stub of my liver.

I would scorch my retinas with replay overload.

And i would smile, for the world would once again be a happy place.

But.....

Its not going to happen in my lifetime either. Sometimes you really do need to realise that you support a lost cause.

yeah would go nuts, follow the MFC party, drink lots of beer, then lots of scotch, then maybe more more beer.

Be awake when the replay is shown the next morning, watch that.......then maybe get an hours sleep and hit up some sort of mad monday style event, repeat previous nights antics.

Would most likely involve 2-3 days off work, then a tattoo

Probably die of a heart attack half way through last quarter & miss the celebrations.

I fear this will be me also but a little later in the game.

A tattoo (have told myself I will not get one unless I am either 40 or we win a Premiership.. 16 years to go..), and a bender that will probably end up with me waking up halfway across the world because I would want to spread the word about how great the Dees are..

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo
