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!

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was
