Could we add "beat a team coached by a Whinge Twin"?

    On the original list winning at Skilled wasn't mentioned, but I think this really should count as knocking off two hoodoos. That was just awesome.

    About half way down there is an entry "Win in Geelong".

    Beat St Kilda at Etihad a week after beating the Pies on QB and that is four of the above...

    Some are more meaningful than others though.

    Beating Geelong down at Mordor would be huge, and of course beating Hawthorn, but Geelong are on a precipice - I would love to push them over...

    Did we push them over?

    Probably not. But we kicked them in the nuts in front of people that like them - so that'll have to do...

    Geez that list would be so much more impressive if we had beaten St Kilda last week. Would have wiped off the Saints and Etihad like we wiped off Geelong in Geelong today.

    and back to back wins too... would have been nice.

    Guess we will just have to smash Meth Coke up in Darwin in 2 weeks.

    lol here is one for the good record list:

    "Although the result was a shock, the omens were bad for the Cats leading into the game. Melbourne has not lost when a player on the opposing team is recording his 300th game – having defeated teams including Leigh Matthews, Luke Power and Paul Salmon. The Cats have not won any of their three games when a player has celebrated 300 games."

    Beating the other one would feel just as good.

    I thought a win at The Cattery would be one of the last ticks we marked off this long list

    To lead at every change...What a dream!!

    Smashing teams is a fair wish for all demon fans, but happy to settle for playing footy like we did against the Cats. Keep doing what we did on Sunday and wins will come. However, with our developing team there will be ups and downs, Seeing the group of talented young kids come through is going to be exciting and a reward for the disappointment of the last 10 years.

    9th August is the next one to put away.

    One record i would like to see broken/set is when we really bury a team, like 50+ points. When was the last time that happened??

    • 3 weeks later...

    Having won in Round 1 this year, we broke a decade-long record of having not won in the first week of the season.

    What other records are in dire need of being broken?

    I'm just wondering the last time we won a game when we were favourites. Is that another embarrassing record that needs to be broken?

    Granted we wouldn't be favourites too often, but anyone know when was the last time?

    • 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.
