For being in the position we are in for this week. The way the club was a few years ago, I felt as if we would never get out of the hole we were in. I'm grateful that I get to enjoy football again with my family and know good times are a head for us. I honestly forgot what it feels like to get excited about going to a football match.

    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. 

     

    Just diverging for a moment, just before Hells Bells is played at the ground the sound system plays a "heartbeat" sound. You know the one...thump, thump...thump,thump. Last week when that was being played, the scoreboard showed a woman standing and hitting her chest with her closed fist mimicking the visual of "thump/thump...thump/thump".

    It made me think that if all Melbourne supporters at the ground started doing that at it would make a great visual and involve supporters in a passionate demonstration of their support for our club. I'll be there on Saturday and intend to start copying that lady's moves. Feel free to join me.

    I am grateful for sticking fat over the past 10 years.

    There were times where I was ready to have my three turn to the Sydney Swans (wife's team) as MFC were below rock bottom.. However, I always bought my boys their MFC Memberships and hoped it would all change. AND it did and the next decade will be very fruitful and hopefully reset the clock on when MFC's last premiership was won. 1964 will be a distant memory and Jones/Viney will be the captains of the next MFC Premiership.

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
