Becoming relevant again

I opened facebook today and saw a post from Fox Footy (below) plugging the Fox Footy Channel. Nothing earth shattering here but I felt a little bit of pride at seeing a Melbourne player/jumper as the image to sell it. In the past decade we would not have seen a Dees jumper to sell anything. Are we slowly becoming relevant again? Is the social media intern at Fox Footy a Dees supporter? Is someone going to get fired for not putting a Richmond, Essendon or Collingwood mug up there. Jack sells.

    Having thought about this for a minute and I don't know if this is entirely possible and it might even be impossible for any of us to test this out but there is the slight possibilities that the Facebook algorithm knowing that I'm a Demon tragic placed a Viney placeholder image on there in order to sell just to me and for all I know my colleague in the next office is writing on a Hawks message board complaining that they used that old photo of Cyril again and perhaps they should update it.

    Shhh. I think the Facebook bots are listening in on my thoughts.

    Regardless of whether or not Facebook are stalking us, I do feel we’re becoming more relevant, the football public rate our list and are expecting big things from us this season. Second is the first loser.

    Nope. This is your Facebook algorithm, mate.

    That said, if we're sitting pretty inside the 8 towards the back end of the season, I reckon a few more people will get into us. That's always the sign of relevance for me.

    Explains why the picture I've got with mine is of Stormy Daniels.

    7 wins and a bottom 4 finish incoming.

    Whatever the pros and cons of the parking ban in Yarra Park, at least we are in 2 of the 5 blockbuster games at the G during H&A where the parking ban applies. A green shoot of relevance, I guess.

    Likely a targetted post aimed only at people that like and talk about MFC.

      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.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • 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?
