I have left my Collingwood supporter daughter to go home via public transport ( in the rain) rather than the comforts of my warm car parked close by after she mouthed off one time too many to me at the football.

I have also given the silent treatment and basically ignored my husband for a week+ after QB.

Bitter but optimistic

Many of the kids I teach give me grief over supporting Melbourne. Of course I obtain revenge by downgrading their marks and writing them poor reports.

Essendon are always in my sights. Their red sash is like a flag to me, it brings out a feral side, like it does with a bull. I guess it's 2000 still haunting me. Surprisingly I haven't had too many pr

We have been the worst performed team in the league for over five years..... Outsiders have been given no reason to believe that this is going to change.....

It's nice to read the glowing training reports every pre season...... But in reality..... We are the worst team in the league and will remain so, until we win more games..... If we want respect from other clubs/supporters..... We have to earn it.....

From the reports I've read on here and what I've seen during this pre season, it appears that we have improved..... But I'll believe it when I see it in a game....

Wow after just torturing myself through the third quarter of the Adelaide Round 22 game, i can see how some labelled us as 'irrelevant'..... Can't wait for the start of the new season to rid my memory of that game....

Did Adelaide really beat us in round 22?

Not possible - we must have been tanking!

It's been a while since Essendon won a game against Melbourne and they were so pathetic last year that, even with all of our problems, we actually outperformed them from Round 10 onwards. Yet somehow, the majority of those who have posted on this BomberBlitz thread reckon we're the ones that have the dud list and are in for another horrific season - 2013 Season Preview - Melbourne Demons.

After reading the optimism in the training report threads, I wonder whether if it's us who are losing touch with reality or is it them?

I've been at work and out of touch with the outside world all afternoon but I'm thinking of registering on BomberBlitz to discuss this and other matters of the day.

Anyone else think it's a good idea?

I've been over there for a look and I reckon it wouldn't take many Demonlanders to join up and the average IQ would double or even triple!

That's very funny indeed.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp. DEMONLAND'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS It’s going to be a scorcher today but I’m in the shade at Gosch’s Paddock ready to bring you some observations from the final session before the Preseason Training Camp next week.  Salem, Fritsch & Campbell are already on the track.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
