Tom McDonald on the goal line.

Hibberd's spoils.

Jack Watts' titanic moment.

Jetta always and everywhere.

Oliver's handball.

The AFLW.

September?

The missus, my wee Demon who was born start of season (that extends well beyond August & doesn't know anything different), Michael Hibberd, Jordan Lewis & whoever invented chicken salt.

 

Clayton Oliver - he gets a hard tag every week, breaks it and still dishes close to 3o sublime handballs a game.

then you give him a second and he can hit a target like Ablett Jnr.

............four consecutive wins over the dreaded Pies .   Just one more  ....please............PLEASE !

I am grateful for Hells Bells being played as the players run out, but then left shattered by the quick shut off and replacement of the Grand Old Flag.  I know its our club song but its also ACDC.  Its appropriate for our team.  Turn it up louder, don't cut it off.  Pump it up!!!! Its the right thing to do. 

 


I'm grateful for Tom Wills, Henry Harrison and the others who invented the best, damn game in the world. Win, lose or draw, it's given me years of enjoyment (the wins, of course, being that much more enjoyable).

Anyone else reckon Clarry looks like Bluey Truscott?

He IS Bluey Truscott. Reincarnation, baby, reincarnation. Ommmmmmmmm..........

Having the MCG as our home ground.We shouldn't take it for granted.Imagine being moved to That Stadium!

The stress that Buckley is under with a potential lawsuit for his treatment of Heritier and of course the cloud of doubt over his performance ?


Jesus our lord for given us Jason Taylor who picked  Bluey Truscott the second, he will win many of them too, Eddie for being   so stubborn that he can never admit he's wrong Buckley will keep them out of the finals forever, Mr and  Mrs viney.

In no particular order . . .

The Filth

Action Jackson

Mr Roos

Pedo

The big No. 1

The big No. 11

The fact we invented the bloody game

The fact we have the most realistic and authentic supporters in the league (with Footscray just behind us)

Ray Biffin and Spud Dullard

The MCG

This may be a cringeworthy comment for some / many / most, but for my many sins, I must live in an AFL 'backwoods' known as Canberra, and I'm extremely grateful to Demonland for keeping me in touch with everything, both real and unreal, about the Melbourne Football Club, as we approach September ...........  (having said that, I may well hate Demonland come Saturday evening ...... lol).

I had the unfortunate experience of living in SA for a period.  Sorry Croweaters, it is a beautiful state and has a lot of redeeming features particularly it's festivals, beaches and wine. 

But for a football lover that craves football news, you may as well be on the moon. The only footy news consists of training reports and match reports of the Crows and Port.  It's the AFL but you may as well be listening to reports on the SANFL.  

Living in Canberra is like living in a fog where anti-depressants and a weekly exit to a living place is the only solace. 

Living in SA is like living in White Australia in the 1950s where there is no news outside the State. It's a strange feeling to be living in the middle of the country yet feel so isolated.  

However, my best wishes to all those Norwood fans and mighty South Aussies that support the Demons and other Victorian clubs. There are plenty but I don't know how they do it!

  • 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.
