The Feelings Back

How good is it to have the love for footy & winning back. I was out walking the dog this morning listening to SEN and to hear people talking melbourne up and praising them bought a smile to my face and put a spring in my step. For this first time since the mid 2000's we are a club with some passion and direction and I couldn't be happier. The last few years I've gone to the MCG and almost dreaded going knowing what the result would be, now I can't wait for each week to roll past so I can get to the G to watch the boys and when they run out through the banner with the theme song belting out I know what I'm going to get from the 22 players. I'm excited for the second half of this year and beyond, bring it on! Go Dees.

    Probably my favourite thing is the anticipation of the coming game. I can't wait. The previous years left me feeling sick at the idea of watching, then spending game day wondering why I was yet again torturing myself by watching for the nth week in a row.

    I reckon there's a good chance we'll drop the ball a couple more times this year as we did against GWS, and looking at the draw there's a good possibility of a belting or two if we happen to drop it on the wrong day. I've seen enough this year though to know that even if that does happen, it *is* just temporary, we *are* getting better, and that we finally have the right leadership to get us where we want to be. Just having the light at the end of the tunnel has rejuvenated my will to support this team.

    A belting here and there you can cope with over the length of a season if the rest has effort and desire.

    I was not confident of beating the Tiges, but I knew they would have a red hot crack and they did.

    isnt it great to read mondays paper and chat to mates about OUR game,instead of talking about other issues.

    give us a couple of more wins and our mates will want to change the subject{like we used to}especially the essendon and carlton ones.

    yep,monday has hit a all time high for awhile.

    i know i know wet blanket time BUT

    in 2010 there was a similar mood in the air

    just sayin

    Was that when we belted the Swans with a flashy outside game?

    This team is being built on defence, by a master builder.

    [censored] 2010.

    Totally agree, however the other wet blanket is the importance of the appointment at the end of Roos' contract. There is the hope he will stay on, but as it stands he won't be, so we need to nail the appointment of his successor to keep the train rolling.

    But at least we can say the train is now on the tracks.

    It's a great feeling.

    I read all the forums and watch all the footy shows after a win.

    After a loss I just mope around on here.

    Almost forgot what winning felt like, could not imagine how the players felt.

    We've earnt these wins too, strangled half decent teams and battled for the win. Not skipped past an expansion side.

    Give me more.

    The players were really pumped after beating the Tigers going off facial expressions...It seems to me they are all thinking...HOLY SHAZBA we can actually play....And play well!! We are going ok here!

    And I swear someone lit a fuse down at Demonland before this game....Thanks Roosy!!!!

    Just listened to Roosy on SEN this morning.

    My gut feel is he will want to see this through.

    He would love to raise another cup at the 'G.

    Our Cup.

    We also didn't have the messiah in 2010.

    Things are looking up, and it's going to stay that way until we are at the top.

    Agreed. As long as we keep things at the back end in tip top shape, I reckon Roosy will stay.

    Have I pre-booked one September Queensland holiday too many? Oh here it comes, the lid coming back down on me.

    My friends dont pity me now. My wife and relo's ( all filth ) arent quite so cocky about QB.

    Folk are able to say the words Demons and Footy without breaking into laughter

    The poles must be correcting themselves as that freezing in Hell ( a sure sign the Dees are on the warpath ) seem nigh :)

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
