When I think about decades of following the Demons I often have melancholy feeelings around other teams competing in the finals and us being perennial also-rans. Some years though had sympathetic highs, with accompanying sound tracks. What were yours, for better or worse?

Off the top of the bat I can remember listening to the late 60's post-season night finals with Melbourne 'starring' in night finals and The Easybeats playing "Sorry" over the car radio. On a less happy note I can recall endless renditions of Hey Jude in our dud 1968 season. Hey Jude thereby always carries a certain sadness removed from its intended sad message.

    'It's a Long Way to the Top' (AC/DC) seems to have a ring of truth about it, and 'Crying' by the late and great Roy Orbison used to be relevant, but I've long since given up crying after a loss. When I'm at a game, I often feel like telling feral oppsition supporters to 'Shaddap You Face' (Joe Dolce).

    Edit: typo

    'You Werent In love With Me'

    Its the song where "Blind Freddie' started seeing all the problems and advances within the MFC.

    Its the song in which people on here state they have a close relationship with Freddie.

    Coz Blind Freddie talks to some posters on here and he sees things others cant, and its blindly obvious that everyone should see.

    I love Blind Freddie. He is such a source og information

    Reckon Suicide Note (Pt. 1 and Pt. 2) are more apt

    i remember watching the come from behind win against freo in 2008 whilst listening to the album Watershed by Opeth. Early on we were getting pumped, so i turned off the commentary and put on Watershed. No single song from the album reminds me of the game, but vividly remember watching us come back from the dead whilst listening to the album!

    If we're talking about song titles that reflect my various feelings being a demons fan in recent years;

    Lost to Apathy - Dark Tranquility

    Angry Again - Megadeth

    Blind Faith - Dream Theater

    and if i had to pick a Pantera song title i'd go for Shattered, they way i feel after every game these days!

    Or perhaps Slaughtered? I'm Broken? Hollow?

    Oh for A New Level and Domination......

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
