Signs you're a Melbourne Supporter

Featured Replies

you think its great when theres no line when you decide that buying a 40 dollar dried out red rooster role would be a nice little treat for such a dour event.

 

This year i got the "oh well roos looks like he might have them on the mend, theres light at the end of the tunnel champ".

makes me angry :mad:

people feeling sorry for me ...grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Planning Holidays to warm parts of the Earth are a doddle when one is a Melbourne supporter.

Since i have been away we have won 0 games...nothing...Doughnut.

And people still say 2014 is an improvement!!

 

you have not watched a Dees game with a friend who doesn't barrack for either team playing, if you are watching with a friend who does barrack for the opposition team, He comments during the game "do you actually watch this sh*t every week" usually during the 1st Q.


When someone makes a joke about going to Mr Buller, you reply with "Don't be silly, I don't go to Mt Buller, we all know the snow is terrible, I head overseas instead..."

You try and identify which games are worthwhile seeing for your up and coming kids.... (GWS game.....*cringe*).

You can't bring yourself to delete the Carlton, Adelaide, Richmond and Essendon games on your Foxtel IQ, even if you have run out of space, just for those times when you need a pick-me-up

You constantly ask

How did we beat those teams?


You constantly recall '87, the early 90's, Jakovich, the up and down years with the Reverend and reminisce with such fondness.

You are slowly running out of positive phrases to tell your kids when they ask "which game can we actually sit there and enjoy knowing we are a really good chance to win as all we want to do is sing It's a Grand Old Flag with everyone else?"

You can find positives in just about anything... we only lost by 10 goals, player X hit a target, Jack Watts layed an effective tackle, it's a good draft year, the jumper looks more red this season...

Bummer I missed it

Edited by old dee

You get excited by beating richmond


You give away great seats to a Bruce Springstein concert so you do not miss round 1 (2013 Melbourne vs Port Adelaide).

You have mentioned that before Jane. The experience has obviously scarred you. You may find catharsis by beating your husband, who, if memory serves me correctly, follows the filth.

when will people realise that the rangey has been supplanted by the porsche cayenne?

dc wash out your mouth you heretic you...

...when no-one bothers to tease you about pathetic losses (ie GWS) ....because it's the norm .

Ha ha ha ha ha

We will be basking in those re-runs over the summer when a fix is needed. Cant wait to have one a week to watch that will cover most of the off season

Or if you're a bit older, you reminisce about Robert Flower and...err...just Robert Flower.

Rubbish article. It says hold the Range Rover jokes and then proceeds to name 2 of them in the 19, plus 3 classist jokes. Same old, same old. I'd like to read an article that discusses the character building attributes of being a MFC supporter.

 

BBO - I definitely need therapy regarding this - I tend to hold onto things. My husband also wanted to see Collingwood play that night and if memory serves me correct, they lost as well.

  • 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.
