Has been discussed in the 'still no BOJ sponsor thread'. Apparently we fell out badly when they were our sponsor last and they won't come near us

... and now that tyre company has not only lost lots of customers among Dee fans but also has the longest losing streak in Melbourne/ St Kilda games - 15. Losers!!!

@praha can we add 'win round 2'. Haven't won in 10 years.

also, can we add the ultimate goal... 'win premiership'? 

Get through the season without losing to a bottom 3 side.

I'd like to see that happen this year which also makes finals more likely.

 

Shows how much we improved under Roos. 

Won R1 3 years in a row now. 

2017 - buried 2 big bogies in R1. Hope can complete the lot this year. 

Love your work Praha but the Freo win needs formatting in red. Thx?

Until I saw the stat, I didn't realise we have lost 9 of the past 10 vs the Blues....  :o

 


Only just noticed, we should add the two 'season long' results -

Finish with a % greater than 100

Finish with more wins than losses.

 

An odd one we knocked over last year thanks to Clayton Oliver is 'have any player experience more wins than losses in a season', last held by Lynden Dunn in 2006.

 

Something I would love to see (and definitely counts as an embarrasing record) is removing our set of three players (Jones, McDonald and Watts) from the list of 'worst winning percentage' of current players. They are between 27% (Jones) and 29% (Watts), and would need to push to over 30% at least, to clear the list. For Jones than would need maybe half a dozen wins without a loss. Coincidentally, Jones is also the individual current player who has played in the most losses (162), despite being as much as 100 total games short of close rivals Robert Murphy (161), Kade Simpson (160) and Nick Riewoldt (157). This can be easily corrected in just a few games.

Taking Watts, McDonald and Jetta off the current list of 'most games without ever playing a final'. Watts currently tops the list, and we MUST break the run this season, Watts moves onto the all-time list as well as onto the all-time list of most games prior to playing a final, even if we do make it next year.

 

Did Nathan Jones play in the St Kilda or Freo finals games?

He did.  The only player left on our list from that period.

Yes, he played in both. They were his 7th and 8th game.


Thx, what years then did Jack Watts and T Mac debut?

suspect a few years gap between them and N Jones

And then re-started in 2014 when Roos turned him into one of those Sydney Defender Robots that just do everything right and don't get beaten.

I think if I wanted to create a list of "players who improved the most under Roos", Jetta would have to top the list. The more I think about it, the more extraordinary the change has been which reinforces my belief that the only thing worse than our drafting in the 5 years pre-Roos was our player development.

We didn't get in the way of players developing themselves - Jones, McDonald, Garland, et al.

So that in itself makes it better than our drafting - we were terrible. I don't want to start a 'drafting' vs 'development' argument because you need both but the raw materials are delivered through the draft and we didn't get them in to even experience our poor development...

Last win vs the kangaroos - Round 20, 2006

The most embarrassing and frustrating hoodoo of them all.  They are such a  mediocre club and team and we haven't beat them in 11 seasons.  It surely has to end this Sunday.

Don't like to think about this one too much, but actually 2006. 15 in a row, mostly big losses. Closing in on the 16 in a row in the 70s/80s.

There, I've dealt with it and will move on....

Our record at the MCG is becoming a mini-embarrassment. We've lost three on the trot there this year (all of them very winnable) after beating Carlton in Round 2.

Time to knock that one on the head along with the big hoodoo against North 

We learned how to win at the Dome but forgot how to do it at the G, I really hope we break that mini one this weekend when we break the Norf one.

I reckon we smashed some hoodoos on the weekend:

The first time we beat Adelaide on a Saturday night since round 2 2001 (when Leoncelli kicked that goal on the siren)

The first time we've won a round 8 game since 2006 (Vs Hawthorn)

 

We've never beaten North in a home and away game on a Sunday as the home side....EVER! Infact we're 0-9.

We played them on a Sunday as the home side in 1997, 1999, 2001, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2014 and 2015 and lost them all.

Now there is a dose of reality  Just wow! We must make the G ours this week.

    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.
