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.

Your request for an extension is granted.

I'm a little more optimistic than you. Whilst I can see what you're saying, I don't agree that the list is as bad as you think. With some culling at season's end, and some judicious drafting, we could be knocking on the door of the top 16 next year. In 2015 I expect to see further culling and the addition of some more free agents to bring us up to a standard that we see us replacing Richmond in 9th place. After that, the sky is the limit. I predict a return to greatness some time before the end of this decade. That will leave me on the good side of 70 and, hopefully, still fit enough to celebrate in a 'wildish' fashion.

GO DEES!

Now that something to celebrate!

I'm assuming this was a typo? :) "Knocking on the door of the top 16". So, 17th. Daring to dream.

If you meant knocking on the door of the top 8, this club is a gazillion miles away from that. Without some major coups in the trade period and injection of genuine talent into the midfield, I'm not expecting next year to be much different to this one.

Viney has gotten me through 2013. I suspect Hogan will be playing a similar role in 2014.

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    The Demons once again went goalless in the last quarter and were run down by the Lions at the Gabba in the final minutes of the match ultimately losing the game by 5 points as their percentage dips below 100 for the first time since 2020.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
