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.

 

"i can't get no Satisfaction" or maybe "mother's little Helper" "19th Nervous Breakdown"

The Stones have it all covered!!

By demons be driven Pantera. Great song and even better band.

 

What Goes Up-Blood Sweat and tears....


'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

 

'In Dreams' another one by the Big O.

'Is that all there is' Peggy Lee



I'd like to link this Video clip to our current seasons fits & starts patchy form,,,, leading us thru a tumultous hazy season towards 2013..

By demons be driven Pantera. Great song and even better band.

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

1: Friday on my mind

2: Saturday Night Fever

3: Sunday Bloody Sunday

4: I Dont Like Mondays

To be revised when we start to win again.


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......

We've grown into a monster. An arrogant, explosive motherf**k.!.

  • 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.

  • PREGAME: Gold Coast

    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?

  • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

    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?
