"We've gotta sit with that in our guts for the rest of the summer."  


20 sec to go in video, Angus and Max jumping up and down on the bench, thumping their chests, pictures of the G pumping as well, huge huge love. 

Whose Fight

Our Fight 

Our House!

 

Far out, that sent shivers down my spine. Might give up my morning coffee and just drink this down every day instead.


The overhead shot of Hannan taking that ball was awesome, never seen it before.

Must watch those 2 games again...

He ran a long way with 90,000 people on his shoulders. 

He did a mighty job to stay cool and slot it

Yes i saw it at the time from the ground, but in all the highlights, ive never seen it from that angle! He was in a ton of space, perfect.

I’m ready to run through a brick wall!!

 

On the 11th of January this year my Dad died unexpectadly of a heart attack. He was a fit and healthy man only 65 years old with everything to look forward to. His mum is still alive at 100 years of age and his dad died at 90.

As he lived up the country with Mum, my last three great memories of time spent with my Dad were the Melbourne v Geelong game, the Melbourne v Hawthorn Game and Christmas. Needless to say that video smacked me in the guts hard and had me weeping like a baby.

Im really scared about this year, not because I think we will be bad, but because there is every possibility we could be very, very good and if our wildest dream comes true, I will be completly inconsolable for so many reasons.

If you see a 6 foot tall, skinny bloke with shaved head balling his eyes out on that one day in September, please throw your arm around him and remind him to enjoy the moment, because his a dad waited 54 years for that moment and will have fallen 8 months short.

Encapsulating where the club is at is a difficult thing but that video, starting with the pain of the Prelim my mind refuses to remember with great clarity, and taking us through the mindset of a young coach that knows the power of a buoyant fan base over young footy players is the closest anything will come to defining where the club is at right now.

Well done to the club for putting that together and kudos to Goodwin who shed his buttoned down persona mid way through last year and revealed more of himself and what drives him.


It’s unfinished Business. That is the way all levels of the club must view last year. We all got on board and it was great. 

But we fell short by a long way actually. 

Players cannot be mentally exhausted with 2 games to go. 

In years gone by, when we got close The Club retreated after getting a sniff. 

2019 must be diferent. 88 Quarters must be fought out at 100%

Then September begins all over again

I am sorry for your loss mate.. i unfortunately lost my little nephew last week who would have been a little demon supporter. The fact he never will grow up to play footy and support the mighty dees is just heartbreaking.

The video brought the lump in my throat.

I had tears  and have been gut wrenched from that loss to the WCE last year  and feel for Goody and our lads.

I am  wishing for tears of happiness for 2019 and hoping it is our time.  

 

It’s not easy to break through all the football cliches with a message that resonates, but they achieved it and then some with that video.

It’s also great to see Goody drop the stoicism. Even for just a moment.

Just awe inspiring!

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
