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.

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

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.

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.

    It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

  • PREVIEW: Richmond

    A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.
