That stung for a while.

Geelong in Geelong last year is the freshest in the memory and was extremely hard to cop. 

2015 against the saints. There was nothing on the line but it burned like hell, didn’t help that it was my birthday either. I even remember saying to someone that Howe’s goal with 30 odd seconds left gave us a ‘fighting chance’. They thought I was nuts and that I should be celebrating a premature win. When Joey kicked the winner I turned around and said “That’s why I say these things”.

Farmer after the siren in 2002 was torture. 

 

Special non-mention: Richmond in 2009 in the infamous tank game. I was not heartbroken, I wanted this loss and don’t pretend you didn’t either. Off topic but this is the worst after the siren winning goal in the history of the game, Jordan McMahon 35 metres out looked like he was kicking a sack of door knobs. 

He was closer to 50 out actually. 

Was such a bizarre ending,  the siren went well before he marked the ball too,  almost seemed rigged. 

Watching Dees fans jumping and screaming in delight when we lost was hard to believe. 

Karma hit is for years after that game. 

Oh, and I forgot to mention my late father said to me after the 87 game that Melbourne should have won and that was their best chance to win a Grand Final. THANKS DAD! (He was an avid Essendon fan). So, no comfort from your own family, but to be fair he didn't know what it was like to be a long suffering Melbourne supporter and member. RIP, dear Dad.

  • NON-MFC: Round 07

    Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

  • PREGAME: Richmond

    The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Fremantle

    A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
