Whatever happened to MFCFSS?

What ever happened to this label for posters? Must have gone out of fashion. Never see it anymore unless I got the spelling wrong?

It's like having a one dimensional game plan where you kicked along the edge of the boundary line...it was soooooo yesterday.

Lol, so much bad stuff has happened lately it is not a syndrome anymore. Plus it's been replaced with the new "in" terms- "wrist slashing" and "hand wringing" argh!

I am pretty certain syndrome sufferers didn't think we were going to be this bad...

Anyway, for the syndrome to kick in we would have to have a modicum of success to question and wonder when it will leave. There is nothing to be paranoid about at the moment - nothing is going right.

Modicum of success? When the hell was that?

The 50's.

Were you there?

All the people who would normally be flinging that label around are too busy screaming about the fact that the sky is falling.
 

I have never known what the acronym stood for. Was it "Melbourne Football Club S##t Sandwich"?


I believe it is Melbourne Football Club Supporter Syndrome. There is no second F in the acronym, if I'm not mistaken.

I can think of an F word to fit in there.

I'm surprised I haven't seen it either, I thought we were having a pretty good start to the season...

Well, in actual fact we HAVE seen it. MFCSS does not necessarily only manifest itself when we are traveling better than expected; rather, it can also appear when we are getting our pants lowered, but the form it takes is that of ridiculous optimism... that is, a few days after a 108 point loss to Wet Toast we were going to walk all over the Toigs. Now, after a football lesson from the Toigs, people are already spouting about how we are going to walk all over the Doggies.

  • PREVIEW: Richmond

    Who would have imagined, when the season kicked off early last month, that Melbourne would emerge from the opening six weeks with wins over both Queensland powerhouses? At the time, Gold Coast and Brisbane were the competition’s early pace-setters, the flavours of the month, and the prospect of the Demons toppling both within the course of a fortnight seemed remote. Yet here they are, banking those scalps alongside home victories over two traditional Victorian rivals and building a quietly impressive resume.

  • CASEY: Brisbane

    From the outset, the Casey Demons lacked any spring in their steps. They were out-hustled and out-bustled and finally outplayed by the Brisbane Lions by 38 points on their home turf in perfect conditions at Casey Fields.
