I can't remember feeling this low as a supporter of this footy club. My friends marvel at my resilience and ability to bounce back and always be talking about next week, next year or the next six foot recruit from Eaglehawk. Put simply, I'm struggling to see a way out and in all my years following this team, I've always hung on to more than just blind optimism and irrational hope. I've always penned my MFC premiership team (in puzzle-like fashion) with a label some 4 - 6 years in the future. My friends have stopped abusing me, my students pity me and my family probably think twice before calling me. We have surely hit rock bottom. I hate self-pity and often have a crack at other Dees supporters for giving in to the losing culture and exposing the very obvious chip on their shoulder. Now it's time for my self-indulgence.

I give you the Goodvibes Graph of Faith/Hope. It's clear proof. We've never been lower.

Love a good graph. But what on earth were you doing in 1977 to come up with a 100% hope fest?

I was 3. My daughter's 3 right now and sings the Dees song every day and was singing it at the end of the game yesterday. I'm guessing I was the same back then.

Trust me, this is a very carefully considered graph. :lol:

Know the feeling Vibes. I don't get hassled by anyone being a Demon anymore.

Stay thecourse

One of my best mates is a filth supporter and he texted me at halftime against GC to rub it in. He's a right [censored], but he's one of my barometers. Once HE gives me pity, we're officially done. While he's still giving me grief, there's hope.

I'll be at my lowest if we ever go!

Otherwise, there's always hope.

The job isn't impossible, just needs smart decisions made on a consistent basis.

I arrived at work this morning to find one of my colleagues hitting play on the Gold Coasts club song as I entered the office.

Low, very low is how I felt.

Still managed to PMSL though.

i still get the abusive texts, especially now that the Eagles have won a couple of games in a row. I enjoy the banter though and they know it. Here are a few from Sunday;

"hahaha Sylvia you dirty #$*%, you are pathetic just like the excuse for a football club that you play for"

"If i went for a team that lost to Gold Coast by 10 goals i would top myself"

"Hobart Demons?!"

"hahahahahaahaha is Jack Watts going to be made captain next week?! Rubbish"

In all fairness when the eagles got the spoon i was relentless with my abuse!

If football was golf, we'd be winning every week..

New sport for Neeldy perhaps?

    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.
