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.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
