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.

Or Robbo singing that song down in the forward pocket, "What about Me" it isn't fair!

    TRAINING: Tuesday 28th May 2024

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatcher Kev Martin returned to the training track to bring you the following observations from Gosch's Paddock this morning. Beautiful morning for training. The dew has dried, out from AAMI, quiet chatting. Maysie does his heart symbol. 7 in rehab, Turner, Hore, Sestan, BBB, Petty, Spargo and Schache. All in runners. Melky weighted and change of angles work. Salem has his individual program. White cap (no contact), Howes, Woewodin and Sparrow

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th
