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*).

#fruitlesstask

you fight the urge to drive your car off the freeway with the cruise control still on on the way home after a loss

 

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

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.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
