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 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!

    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.

    • 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.
