Roosy says "It's a good time to be a Dees supporter"

I like that Roosy identifies as a Melbourne supporter still. I heard him say it to Iron Mike and he still says it.

I assume when his 'boys' pass through the club, he will go back to being a Swan and I wouldn't begrudge him that.

    I'm 100% behind Roos - think he is on the money. I would love to see us spending more money in the areas of injury prevention and management. However, you cant spend what you dont have -so our big danger would be a horror run of injuries. I look forward to us growing our memberships and average crowds then things will change - then we are less in the hands of injuries.

    Who cares? So was Barassi. But I'd listen to them, both, any day ahead of what we get in the media today.

    I'm not picky when it comes to commentators, i'm more focused on the game and the commentary is background noise.

    I hate to break it to you but I'll be at the game too (without my equipment). Although I could stream live from my phone but I'd be too nervous. Perhaps I'll do the last quarter when we're 48 points up at 3/4 quarter time. Oops we've blown lead like that in the past.

    Yep. There’s hardly any commentators left. Most of them have turned into “Special Comments” and it’s terrible listening.

    Adam Papalia and Brenton Speed seem a tad refreshing, those two actually call the game.

    When she was 5, my niece 'wrote a book' about going to the football with me. 

    The only thing I say in the book is "Oh no, oh no, oh no" over and over again on every page, which is pretty much what you'd get if I was calling the game.

    I'd be out of breath from pacing back and forth. Being a Melbourne fan is not good for the ticker despite the added exercise from the pacing. 

    Can't we just destroy teams every week so I can enjoy the game. Is that too much to ask.

    No expletives? No complaining at umpiring decision? No justification for Demons players getting all the votes 3,2,1 win, loss ( which obviously we will never have to consider) or draw? Maybe when the opposition do get a touch we have our own catch cry  "Oh no, oh no, oh no"

    Yeah - if my son had to write a book about our time at the footy, it would probably be called “Oh, that’s bull$h!t!!”

    Paul (and all those other scribes), please don't talk us up.

    Broken expectations have almost killed me over recent seasons.

    If we make finals fine, anything short of that, forget it.

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
