Would be good. I'd rather watch 'The Ghan' than some of our performances in the NT.

At least after 17 hours the Ghan can stay on track !

Plaudits to the Wanna on NITV football tonight

 

I'm not big into revenge.

The best revenge is living well. It shows that the barbs and arrows thrown at you by your tormentors in the end meant nothing. You ultimately rose above it.

I think if we make the finals this year and aren't just making up the numbers then I'll be happy.

Ok now that we’re in the back end of January , the disarsterĀ of round 23 2017 and associated tortureĀ is becoming more and more distant each week. Rather than lamenting andĀ self loathing in past failures , like a true demon supporter , I thought best to channel the vitriol to thinking of endeavours thatĀ the football club Ā (or more accurately the players and football department)Ā can now controlĀ , that being .... Ā how theyĀ respond in 2018. As supporters we are at the mercy of the how the players and coaches choose to respond , apart from coughing up our hard earned and signing on again in 2018. AccordinglyĀ we can only dare to dream and Ā I’m interest to hear everyone’s wish list to avenge in 2018Ā 

So apart from making finals, clarry winning the Brownlow or the dees doing a bulldogs or Richmond in September Ā I thought of myĀ top 3 .Ā 

1. Dees finally beat north in Rd 3 with a goal after the siren , brad Scott looses his [censored] in the box , despite north again getting a helping hand from the umps. Dees go 3-0

2. Queens birthday , the dees smash collingwood by 12 goals adding to a 4 game loosing streak for the pies. Bucks under severe pressure again and Taylor Adams is added to the jack viney made me cry threadĀ 

3. A red hot Melbourne sideĀ anilhilate west coast by 80 pointsĀ in rd 22 severely eroding their % and ending their finals aspirations.Ā 

Go dees !Ā 

Ā

Good wish list but beat north by a kick after the siren please i want those [censored] on toast 60 pts plus please.

Jake Lever to become an out and out superstar, and Adelaide to seek compensation from the Afl and then finally leave the competion because players dont want to stay there.....and Tex to have a brain fade and start eating the goal posts.

There's a few things, but I'll keep it simple, make the finals and be apart of it for longer than one match.

Ā 

Two wishes from me........Win our first game well, and what it will mean,Ā against Cats,Ā and then start turning around the win/loss ratio that absolutely annoys me......

I get the feeling that even when we beat them somehow it won’t be easy , they’ll get themselves up for it (or the media will play up the unbeaten streak line)Ā and turn it into a grind, and we’ll be made to sweat it out right to the end . Hears hoping we destroy them though !

I'd back us in to beat the Cats.

Norf, though?Ā  They could field a team of 10 year old's and they would still be a chance to roll us.


We will break their run ?ā€ā™€ļø in R3 2018...

Its good thats its an early match R3 and we get it out of the way. Its also at the G and not Jihad or Hobart or somewhere. I think well smash them (like guitars).

You're kidding yourself DA.Ā  We could be 10 goals up and the usuals will still find something to complain about.

My wishlist is simple - finals.Ā  Anything less and it's a failed season.

Unless the circumstances are extraordinary, that would barely satisfy me Wise.Ā  To demonstrate progress, and eliminate the bitter after-taste ofĀ last year, I reckon we need to win at least one.


For our guys to start playing like men, consistently playing all four quarters and playing out the whole season strongly. Ā All these things together and finals look after themselves. Ā Mostly, for us to look back on this season as the one where the MFC started to assert it's self as aĀ dominant on-feild force on the comp, to be feared and reconed with.

Jessy Hogan delivering on his promise to become the dominant power forward of the comp, supported by Tommy Mac who will start drawing comparisons to NickĀ Riewolt, with his althletisim and marking ability, cumulating with an inspirational performance from Max Gawn (who I wish to be provided in advance of new umpiring interpretations)Ā to smash the SaintsĀ 

In terms of beating teams, beating them all has a nice ring to it, but if I have to rationalise, I'd take in order of priority:

1. Ā Thrashing Norf;

2. Ā Thrashing Collingwood (and make Howe wonder what might have been had he stuck fat);

3. Ā St Kilda (per Norf, we owe them at least a decade of defeats... throw most of the comp in that basket as well);

3. Ā Sydney;

4. Ā Thrashing Hawthorn;

1. No criticisms of Satyr for his training reports

2. No criticisms of Joeboy for his weekly three word player summaries

3. No criticismsĀ of Melbourne players unless genuinely deserved.

Why didn't you put "unless genuinely deserved" at the end of the first two?

Because that's the point. The criticism of Satyr and Joeboy is never deserved. Disagreement with their views is OK, but not criticism of them personally.

Ok. Ā But it's ok to criticise their training reports/three word player summary?

I'm mainly asking because of the three word thing. Ā I rarely read it because I received a warning early days for making not "nice" comments about it, but when I do, I see others share a similar view quite frequently.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.Ā

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
