50 years straight as a member is huge

The least the club could do is give the poor bloke a premiership!

    Is it possible that this guy is the curse?

    He has wasted much of his life.

    His sanity must also come into question.

    The club needs to cut all ties with this man immediately.

    For his own benefit.

    Club needs to provide free counselling for pain & suffering...

    Goes to show how far off the mark the club has been in the last 50yrs in getting things right across all departments...

    No reflection on current regime, but recognition of milestone members would not be the highest thing on their list....

    Why wouldn't it be ? No members, no club.

    I have received my 50th year recognition a certificate and a pin. I really appreciate the acknowledgement.

    I'm a believer in the famous words of JFK ... "ask not what my country do for me but what I can do for my country"

    We're all different and that's fair enough.

    I would have loved to have seen a premiership by now though.

    It's amazing that all us old supporters don't have a drinking problem.

    I don't have a drinking problem, it's getting enough to drink is the problem.

    I can hear a groan from some seriously OLD DEEs

    Know the feeling PD, as we get older we don't drink any more.

    Or any less.

    I certainly don't drink any more or less and there will be no New Years resolution to change.

    I am still looking forward to enjoying a 2002 bottle of Robbie Flower, signature collection Rare Old Tawny Port when the dees make the finals.

    I won't save it for a premiership as the port would probably remain unopened in my lifetime.

    I can go one better... I got the Ron Barassi returns to the Dees signature collection port 1981.

    nutbean I hope it is Tawny because if it is Vintage port it will be dead in the bottle.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
