Only 12 ......
More like 50.
We've been garbage for as long as I remember.
And even when we were good in the late 80' and early 2000's we were still garbage.

And Hawthorn supporters have lived a charmed existence since the early 70s.
Dunno what the under 25yrs old stuff is about.

    At three quarter time in the 1971 Grand Final, St Kilda was leading Hawthorn by 20 points. At that stage, each had won a single Grand Final while we had won 12. Since then, St Kilda has kicked on with multiple wooden spoons while Hawthorn now has 13 Premierships...and we've still got 12.

    Just bought the book last night chook.

    Now we've made the finals, I'm mentally sound enough to read through the disaster that has been.

    If we'd missed the finals again I couldn't have gone near it.

    Still feel guilty for what I put my kids through.

    Is it really 600 odd pages?

    Oh right so its not what I pictured where it might be 400 pages and 370 blank pages for vomit catchment and readers to draw pictures of Neeld with stink lines? :)

    I suggest carrying a copy and throwing it at him or Schwab if you see them in the street.

    Great video and reminder of where this club has come from. Friday night is a great opportunity to turn a new page and hopefully make Geelong regret they made the finals.

    Almost 50/50 in fact.

    Just want to add that 5:55 has really stuck in my craw. I hated it then and I hated seeing it now.

    I know there’s nothing wrong with it and I like Lingy and Gaz but it’s quite annoying.

    After Neeld putting his bonce on TV and airing our dirty laundry while looking like an absolute peanut, I'm now back focused on what matters.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
