Will make my year!

 

be buying tickets to the grand final.

I’ll be having the Qantas app open and my finger hovering over the ‘book flight’ button the whole match.


Call the handbrake to apologise to her that I’ll be home late and best you sleep in the spare room. 

......... richer in every way, except of course for our bank balance, which will be considerably 'lighter' after forking out several grand for GF tickets, airfares to and from Melbourne, and accommodation for the week so we can attend training, the GF Parade and the after-party.  Who cares about money when there are far more important considerations?

 

Feel some redemption for the tears I had as a 12 year old watching from home as the demons got smashed at the WACA back in the ‘94 prelim. My first demon premiership dream as a kid in tatters, we were riding a similar wave back then and a team with talent to boot, but came up against a juggernaut with players that looked unnaturally stronger and bigger then ours, over in the bright WA sunshine, with all their supporters wearing those disgusting fake blue and yellow scarfs, their stupid early 90s Eagles baseball caps and bolle sunglasses and their coach , can’t recall his name, and arrogant looking man with a silver bushy moustache .

Since then I’ve always hated West Coast 

Become neurotic and rambling and start pacing around immeadiately after the team song. Then sit queitly in a corner throwing a ball against a wall that i repeatly catch with a baseball glove for the next 6 days...


Come on people, you would go nuts! We are against the odds here ... WCE are primed to beat us, if we happen to win it will be MASSIVE. More then massive infact.

We would be into a f'ing GRAND FINAL! After the last 18 years how sweet this victory would be.

I would cry like a baby.

2015 my First son Jack was a still born, heading to the footy and watching the boys was my escape. Watching the boys improve year on year since 2016 has been amazing to watch and to see Co Captain Jack come back from injury and dominate brings a tear to my eyes.

Sorry to hear Philthy.

I think I’ll be a bit in between of beyond happiness joy and tears. The old man was a mad Dees man, our last game together was the 2000 grand final before cancer got him in Jan 01. 

He’s been top of my thoughts the last 4 weeks in particular. 

 


Buy a lot of cheese, a couple of bottles of Red and have an impromptu team meeting/celebration in my area of the building on Monday

Thanks mate.

Sorry to hear about your dad, cancer is a right bastard.

Had a still born in 2007, luckily she was a twin so my boy Rocco is healthy, so joy and sadness, a bit like this Saturday going to be.


Jump and scream, but not cry. Saving that for next week

Sob uncontrollably, hug my dog so tight his eyes bulge and donate $100 to Demonland.

Lose my absolute [censored].. Then lose my absolute mind scrambling to get my hands on tickets for the big dance.

We were fortunate enough to have another boy November last year, can't wait to watch the game with Oliver even if he doesn't have much of an idea what's going on!

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

  • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

  • GAMEDAY: Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?
