A poster in another thread mentioned the idea of starting a thread of inspirational videos from Youtube and the like.

We are 0 and 9. The only way is up and the only way we'll get there is if we all start to ... believe. From the players to the coaches and administrators and of course us to us loyal supporters, it's the most vital ingredient of success. More important than the money, the facilities, the high-perfromance training, the premium draft picks. More important than the lot of it put together.

Belief.

I'll start us off with some Italian Stallion, Rocky Balboa.

Feel free to go ahead and post your own.

I like the cut of your jib, young fella me lad.

I was inspired by Misson's mantra from his article a few weeks back, an Aristotle quote. It made me somewhat more hopeful of the future (I might even go so far as to say it gave me belief in our future).

That clip is hilarious-made even more so by seeing my ex-girlfriend at 2.42.

Surely the mullett is our only hope of ever being anything ever again.

Can we edit Hinch out of that?

That clip is brilliant clucka. Should be shown to the players pre-match tonight.

Lol'd at that and thought instantly of Cale Morton and Jack Watts.

I have received some very very super duper credible information that this is what mark neeld's pre game talk to the players and post match press conference's will look like from now on.

Hopefully we don't gas ourselves out in the first quarter CFH but rather come back from a pummeling and Hulk Up in the last quarter to steal an improbable victory. :lol:

I cant help but watch these two videos and think how far off the Melbourne players are in comparison to actual 'Professional Athletes'

Apologies for posting collingwood related material, but this is exactly the guy I think we should have speak to our players.

But of course in anything that we want to go... from just a beginner to a pro, you need a montage!

"Being perfect is about being able to look your friends in the eye and know that you didn't let them down ... because you told them the truth. And that truth is that you did everything that you could. There wasn't one more thing you coulda done.

Can you live in that moment as best you can? With clear eyes ... and love in your heart. With joy in your heart."

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.
