As a couple of others have suggested, Jimmy's slogan is the best -- WHATEVER IT TAKES.

My only question is: How come those Essendon ratbags have stolen it? Seems they use it as part of their Press Conference back-drop. Absolute cheek, if you ask me!!!

MFC - Abandon Hope All Ye Who Enter

When you give up hope you just become hopeless.

Not for me!

I'm happy to remain optimistic when all of you guys are giving up. In the end, when the turnaround comes, and it will, I'll celebrate proudly with the knowledge that I never gave up hope.

GO DEES!

Sadly I will probably be in the ground by then Reverend

Have fun for me.

How good would it be to have a massive heart attack 30 seconds after a one point victory over Collingwood in a grand final? That's the way to go! C'mon OD, don't just give up and lose hope. Be determined to live long enough to see the turn around. It will come my friend. Hope will keep us alive.

Firstly Crawf Can I have my heart attack on the sunday I would like a few hours of celebration mate!

Second the problem is not that I entend to go anytime soon it is more about the length of the journey that the MFC will need to make.

IMO our list is such that it is going to take a decade to get to a GF if all things go well.

In my view very few of the current list are capable of AFL standard football and the majority of the ones that are will be too old by 2024.

We are currently in the position of a new team joining the AFL in 2014. A long journey awaits.

Old dee, you're being too pessimistic. Look at how Port Adelaide have turned it around in the last 12 months both on and off the field.

I understand the cause of the pessimism and if things don't change off field then you have ever right to be concerned about the future on field. To use a cliche, there is a lot of low hanging fruit which can be plucked readily to make significant and quick improvement.

There is one big difference between us and Port LDC

The LIST

Port had a reasonable list in 2012.

We have a shocker.

I honestly believe we should not have one in 2014.

Over the last seven years we have talked the talk but have been miserable at walking the walk.

in 2014 lets achieve something that we can shout about in 2015

    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
