Oh No!

Give your vintage, old dee, I knew you'd struggle the most widely with this apparition.

[John Crow Batty 8,778]

Convinced myself that Toumpas could play.

Said nice things about Mitch Clark.

Argued that Sylvia would come good.

Said Stefan Martin would never be a footballers' bootlace.

Believed Schwabby's whiteboard Wednesdays.

Convinced myself that Liam Jurrah was a clean-cut tribal elder that would be AFL's greatest story.

Sounds like you were very much a victim of Demonland group think at the time.

I was convinced Austin Wonnamirri was going to be the second coming of the wizard....

The much touted Schwabian Era Melbourne Brotherhood turned out to be a great fraud. Nev Jetta the one most least likely out of that lot is the only one to make it.

[deespicable me 1,467]

I was once convinced Roos was going to deliver us a premiership like he did the Swans, Jackson was going to take us permanently out of debt and transform us into a power club and that Hogan and Petracca would become top ten players of the competition and play in multiple Demon premierships.

Seriously delusional.

I still think we can win the '87 Premiership, every-time, prior to re-watching the Preliminary final match.

yes sylvia, I must confess, thought he could come good.... well, was as wrong as anyone could be.

i confess i have never attempted karaoke (or hari kiri for that matter)

It's hara kiri (腹切り= literally stomach cutting).

It's kind of redundant to say that really. If you had attempted it, you wouldn't be here to report about the experience.

Move outside of Borewood and you too will learn about these things.

Towards the end of his first season, I told my mates Cale Morton would win a brownlow one day.

Beat that!!

needless to say i had to find new mates

I also keep believing the many re-builds we have had will work

also, im still cut about Scully leaving even though he is an average player

man, its good to get all that off my chest!

You could argue you were close with Morton. His best mate and fellow skinny kid who lived next door got the Brownlow. Edited November 8, 2015 by america de cali

I thought John Meeson was going to be an out and out star for us.

[Straight Sets Simon 23,113]

I was convinced Austin Wonnamirri was going to be the second coming of the wizard....

He could have been had his father not been tragically killed in a car accident.

[KingDingAling 3,737]

I thought Tapscott was going to be the second coming of Paul Chapman.

I moved from Victoria to Queensland in 2006, it was the last time the MFC played finals. I take full responsibility for the club becoming a mess after my departure.

To make amends, I've decided to move back to Victoria at the start of 2016. History will show that when my postcode starts with a "3", we generally make finals. You're welcome.

I have recorded this one billy.

I am only too happy for you to be correct next September.

[Bluey's Dad 3,419]

Ugh, how about this thread I created in 2013 about how I felt hopeful after watching a Mark Neeld press conference.

A MARK NEELD press conference.

It's like waking up in the middle of the night with an embarrassing memory from high school. You still cringe.

I just watched that game, too....

Wow, footy's changed! No accountability, no system, no structure...

We were damned good that day, but the Swans' players had zero accountability for their opponent.

Where do you need to move for us to win the flag? I'll get on realestate dot com for you.

Thats because you can't handle pressure.

"The Stranger" is a good album

Must agree love the pressure song he had plenty of coke in his system then after he stopped that the gig was up apart from the super models what a gifted life.

Ted, the last time we won a flag, Old Dee and WYL were in uniform, and I was still in liquid form.

Let's just start with finals, and we'll see where that takes us!

Are you now confessing to a drinking problem?

(I reckon most of us here ought to have a drinking problem.)
