I hope this isn't the start of another Daniher yo-yo period.

I hope it is if the yo-yo goes high enough.

The happy-go-luckies are still at stage 1 unfortunately.

Or fortunately for them really. It's the reason they're always positive!

Depression for me. Earlier in the year, I had packed away in a box the members ticket, 2 jerseys (one which my daughters bought me for Xmas last year), bomber jacket and scarf, and now stored on top of the wardrobe. Threw in the bin the calendar, car stickers and 2 guest passes. Have not attended a game since the first St Kilda loss. Will not renew my dedicated demon package next year. Such a waste.

yep, it's the <waste>, isn't it...

Stage 4 for me ?


I am at stage 5.. but that's more so now that i simply don't give a [censored] anymore. The St Kilda was the last straw for me. 

I have far more enjoyable things to look forward to then waste 2 hours stressing about something that has no relevance to my personal life.

My thoughts to a tea DD36.?

Good grief men?  Sorry and ladies

This is footy, it's a sport, nobody dies, it's a very small part of my full life, occupies a few hours once a weekend

Went home after St Kilda game, had a beer and moved on to next week, we were deplorable, me sulking about it ain't gonna change it

Thank you for the good laugh at lunch time

 

The 5 Stages of being a Melbourne Supporter

1. denial - why didn't we draft Ollie Wines?

2. anger - Oscar is a spud! How does he get a game?

3. acceptance - Frost does some good things but gee whiz ...

4. depression - May, Lever, VdB and KK will never give us an entire season

5. bargaining - why didn't we draft Ollie Wines?

I think collectively we are in stage 4 Depression. Statements like 'sack the coach', 'trade Gawn' etc. Helpless overreactions that would actually make things worse, because we think it can't get any worse.

In about a month we will all be at Acceptance and it won't seem so bad. We'll have some optimism back for 2020 and this year will be a bad memory.

Sure, much better to go ten straight years without playing finals.

How very self-aware.

Me? I've been stuck in the denial stage since 1965.

Denial. I will call it depression.

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
