i am seeking help from all you Demonland demon worshippers, i have been looking up the ancient demon text, on breaking curses this monday is the 31s t of march and on this monday it is a new moon, in the ancient text if this chant is recited at midnight on a new moon if it will end a curse, And it will bring in a new era.

So if many believe, and if many recite the chant at midnight on the 31st of march monday night, when the new moon is in the sky.

oh the man of the underworld, oh dear spirit of norm smith, arise awaken at the sight of a new era,norm smith forgive the past, this is the present a new club, let it once again be great and mighty, let the demons football club rise above the football world, enough time has passed let the healing begin, enough time has passed

So how many believe, so how many will join me and recite the chat.

Can't do any harm. I might need to partake in some prior liquid spirits to attain a state of mind befitting the occasion.

Yelling at Jack Watts to Tackle or Bail to hit a target or just at the team for being so crap hasn't worked so may as well try something different

"Hey Norm you were treated badly...I sympathize with you 100% But now you should rest and enjoy.

50 years is when copyright often runs out.

It is time to hunt down the elusive 13th and not just hope the club doesn't implode.

Can we have big crowds at the MCG again please Norm?"

Buy one from the supermarket......Save a lot of blood and mess....

Being a modern man of science I scoff at such superstious mumbo jumbo. On the other hand being a Melbourne supporter come the full moon on the 31st I will chanting the house down. Not only that I will do it naked. I don't know if being starkers will help the cause much, but it can only add to the general ambience of the moment.

Sorry, you have got it wrong.

It is not the Norm Smith curse.

A few years ago I was talking to a bloke from Bonnie Doon and funnily his name is also Norm - seriously.

He said he was there in 64, towards the end of the game he said, "I don't care if we never win another flag just give us this one".

Maybe he got his wish?

I will take a chook to his place on the way to the match on Sunday.

The spirit of Norm Smith unfortunately can't make it - something about a calf strain - 4-6 weeks.

Well desperate times call for desperate measures...

I was in Italy last year about the same time the Paul Roos coaching decision was being made. I went into every church I walked passed in Italy and Croatia and lit so many candles and sent a silent prayer each time praying for Paul Roos to be the Melbourne coach. My knees were sore from so much kneeling.

Stranger things have happened so why not?

I hope this involes drinking lots of beer afterwards

Before, during and after! If I'm going to be up that late better stock the fridge!

I'm all for superstitious mumbo jumbo, but can we please spare the chooks?

This is serious Mr Rhode Island Red. Surely you would sacrifice a distant relative for a flag.

I have twice offered my mother in law for sacrifice, the silly old chook.

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
