GDay Dee-Land!

I just thought I would find out if any other Dees fans are as crazy as me to have game day omens or rituals in the lead up to the big days?

Would love to hear your thoughts!! :) :)

Go Dees!!! :)

 

I mute my TV and buy some booze. Other than that, no rituals for me.

 

Game day omen ... if one of our players gets a big write up in the paper on the day of the game, we are doomed.


I think your the only crazy fan UD

 

I don't have one but tomorrow I will do a lap of the MCG Mecca style and if we win I will continue the ritual.

The morning of a game I have my coffee in my Demons mug and sing "It's a Grand Old Flag" with my 2 year old son after eating breakfast. He pretty much knows the words now and his favourite colours are of course red and blue.

Don't believe in Omens, too much like believing in God!

Fuel for the weak!

I don't believe in omens or religion, but also don't diss the practice. What's more weak? Having omens or being intolerant of those that do?

I have no consistent omen. Some days I get a root - some days not. It is a chancy matter.

BTW Perhaps your could have been used in the thread title. Just a suggestion.

Let's not get into that discussion again...

My omen is a tin of VB with my weet-bix the morning of the game. Ensures that I enjoy the day no matter the result.

When I wake up in the morning and look at the clock and it says 9:11.......I know the team is in for a bad day.

As in, putting the VB on your weetbix or just on the side,,,,my fathers brother.....if there was no milk in the fridge would crack open a beer and put it on his weet bix, bit of a crazy bastard but a legend for it.
 

Not really an omen but Its either -

stocking the fridge with wild turkey cans ( caffeine after a 3am start ) and a bottle of red at the ready before yelling dancing in front of the tv like a crazy man.Hopefully the missus returns at siren time so I can sing the song with my 18 month old daughter.

Or slipping into the g hitting the bar my trident seat and trying to remain calm and be a decent dude before vacating the members area heading downstairs to standing and yelling my guts out.

hopefully we win.

then its off to a bar or 3 . he he.

I usually find the best way is to slaughter an animal,spread it's entrails out on the kitchen table and then decipher the signs from there.

I'm not into the I Ching ,Tarot Cards or anything esoteric.

I don't drink tea,so tea leaves are out of the question.

Luckily for me ,there is a Lebanese man with too many cats,who use my courtyard as a thoroughfare/toilet.So I have a ready supply of Omens.

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.

  • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

    Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

  • REPORT: Adelaide

    The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.
