Switch us on!


Gippsland Dee

Recommended Posts

was listening to shannon nolls song and was thinking it describes melbourne pretty well at the moment. Neeld is the one who switches us on :) not saying this has happened which it hasn't but quite sure he is the man to do so! i've changed the i's to we and 'you' to neeld :P the only thing that doesn't fit is the part when we were younger.

it was good for a bit of fun! GO DEES

"Switch Us On"

we never thought that we'd find ourselves here

The darkest place that we've ever been

we never thought that we'd take this life for granted, but we did

we would've given it all when we were younger

we would've given up everything for a taste

Of the life and the lights and the crowds

But our mind wasn't right, there were lies

Then neeld came along...

And neeld switched us, switched us on again

And neeld showed us what it's like to live

When neeld found us we wer empty

we were too far gone for anybody

Switch us, switch us on again, tonight.

There was story my old man told me when I was young

He said the measure of a man ain't in his bank account

He said be careful of the things you say and what you do

And all the people that you've got hangin around with you

And I lost my way, prodigal son

Of who I am and where I'm from

Ooh, I was blind but now I see

Then neeld came along

And neeld switched us, switched us on again

And neeld showed us what it's like to live

When neeld found us we were empty

we were too far gone for anybody

Switch us, switch us on again, tonight.

Tonight I've never felt so alive

Just looking in your eyes

I finally realized

What I'm doing with my life.

And neeld switched us, switched us on again

And neeld showed us what it's like to live

When neeld found us we were empty

we were too far gone for anybody

Switch us, switch us on again, tonight.

Neeld switch us, switch us on again

And neeld showed us what it's like to live

When neeld found us we were empty

we were too far gone for anybody

Switch us, switch us on again, tonight.

YDE

i think you might have too much time on your hands if your listening that closely to Shannon Noll.

I would reckon there are many songs that could be applied to MFC particulary Blues related but I have rarely followed the lyrics of one song that closely so I do admire your thoroughness.

And I do like your creativeness and enthusiasm (passion) for the DEES

That song should also inspire Neeld with the level of support you display

BUT

I also would worry that you may see Neeld as the sole factor for success. It is the Melbourne club, the team of coaches, the team of players, the team of supporters who will together participate in the success. While its true he may be and must be a major factor it will only happen when we are all able to contribute what we have.

If you still have time you could look for some similar inspiration for other players Maybe starting at Morton Spencer sylvia and Moloney etc those who are more under attack on Dland than others.

I am sure they and we all could be inspired by songs of support.

Keep the passion.

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
