Haha despite the fact it was never an actual offer, the actual comment was I would join him in the back of a police vehicle after I had picked myself up from the gutter outside the cricketer's...

Your denial is understandable stuie. Never mind. 

If we beat Norf, I'll scratch my head in disbelief,  kick my heals in the air and stop to smell the roses, because as a Melbourne supporter we don't get to do that often enough.

Probably good that we got this loss out of the way, in past years we left bad loses to weaker opponents to later in the year (GWS in 2014, Carlton last year).

Still, I can't see us getting within 5-6 goals of North after last week.

I'd actually be really [censored] off if they win.

But they won't. These funks tend to last 2-3 weeks. I seriously would not be surprised if it's 80+ point loss.

Anyway, what will I do if they win? Probably nothing. I don't trust them after a win anymore. It would seriously infuriate me.

It would the first of the very many steps required by this club, which I love and have loved for decades, to regain any semblance of my respect (though I am now quite unsure if they actually care, to be honest)

After Saturday it is a very very long road.  

Pity nobody in charge reads these fora.

Finally get to enjoy the sweet taste of beating my most hated team. Literally every North supporter I know is a massive [censored], including my now ex boss. 

I literally want to beat North more than any other side, and yet this never happens. Doubtful this will be the week.

I hear you Jaded. We can certainly hope they win.

You smoking hydro or bushbuds there Jacko?  

Lol. Did we expect to beat the cats last year? I thought we'd lose to the dons but beat the roos. Our phycology is very predictable

Yeah, we'd be OK if our phycology was unpredictable! :)

 

I get what you mean tho', and I agree with you. If an opposition coach does their homework on us, they can stifle s fairly easily, and it's fairly predictable how we'll react. Woosha's eyes would have lit up from the moment that T-Mac ran first one way across the ground in d50, then the other, took about the 4th or 5th option & inevitably turned it over.

I would think they would, they'd be crazy not to be on top of fan feedback. This forum is essentially free research for them, to get an idea what their most engaged fans think of the club.

I know schwab read these forums and I think he even posted a few times.

Be surprised, and thoroughly enjoy the kick to kick on the ground after the game.

Well, obviously the first thing to do is to work out how many years the Demons and Kangaroos will be competing against eachother in Grand Finals.

:roos:

If we beat North I will roll my eyes at the absurdity of our game and our club, feel a lot better, and the focus on sending both Collingwood and Richmond into a crisis in the next two weeks.

And after that, I will be absolutely sure we will get smashed by St Kilda, even if (especially if) both Riewoldt and Montagna are injured that day.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields.

Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
