As I assume most of us here at DL are, like myself, struggling to see the positives light on this seasons efforts, I wanted to watch some of our boys best performances.

No matter how deconstructive this may be I'm sick of watching the boys play the way the have been.

Games like Adelaide last year and West Coast in West Coast came to mind as serious football performances from our Dees. 

Any suggestions for some guilty viewing before coming back to reality this weekend?

    Watching Brad Green's delivery to Neita...urrrggh. just makes me more depressed. Not a single player i'd back to deliver it lace-out like that now.

    Attended both games, both awesome days at the footy but 87 still just about the best day ever!!

    The first two finals in 87 were incredible and then of course the third at Waverley is probably the most memorable for the vast majority of MFC fans.

    Round 22 1987, then daylight.

    Elimination Final 1987, First Semi 1987.

    Semi Final vs Carlton 2000.

    First 2 Finals 2018.

    As an afterthought I’d add in Round 22 1990 (I think) vs Hawthorn (to make the finals) and then the following week to beat them again in the Elimination. Will NEVER erase 87 Prelim, and 88 GF, but certainly felt pretty good for a while.

    Watching Froggy Crompton's kick sail through the goals and over my head in 1964 premiership.

    Robbie's first goal against roos in 1987 elimination final.

    • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.

      It’s Game Day and the Demons return to the scene of the crime to take on the wooden spooners.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.
