    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.

    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.

    If we win i will give up booze for a month, and that aint an easy feat, so you can tell how much i believe in them now.

    We are 0% chance.

    They will win by 40 points.

    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.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      The Dogs reigned supreme in 2018 with an inaugural AFLW premiership cup and the Demons matched this feat by winning the cup as the Season 7 2022 champions.Meggs wasn’t born when the Doggies won their first VFL premiership cup against the Demons in 1954. Covid prevented many Demons fans from legally witnessing the victorious 2021 AFL Grand Final cup performance between the Demons and the Bulldogs, but we all grin when remembering those magnificent seven third quarter goals.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

    • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

      Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?
