reading some of the sad sacks here you would think melbourne just played richmond today it's just pathetic and repetitiously boring. how many ways can you say the same things?

Absolutely dc. They turn a thread about a GF where we aren't playing into a MFC whingefest

you miss the point....not surprising it's the boring, repetitious, masochistic, humourless, unoriginal drivel i'm sick of either come up with something original or a least with some humour o

Brand is a marketing term, and meaningless, culture is another thing all together and we do not have it  Hardwick is a balanced person, Goody not so much.

Brand also means game style.

And no one is saying our culture is perfect.

Don't put words into our mouths.

I think we need to take as many positives out of todays game as possible. At least GWS have dethroned us to take out the most recent horrendous finals performance.

THANK FUGGIN CHRISTMAS!

But GWS the Frankenstein of the AFL PSEUDO EXPANSION!

Lowest goals for a zillion years!!!

Suck on that AFL...

Enjoy ur night Polo player!

GWS HORRENDOUS and loved every minute of it!

Well done tiges.

Hey Goody were u watching!??

Do not tell me what to do. We do not have an AFL game style anyone respects so less talk about brand the better.

Haha isn’t she also the one who got scalded on here for posting a photo wearing cats scarf during a game?

I believe so.

The same Lily Mithen whose "...grandfather’s cousin is Laurie Mithen – a Melbourne great, who played in five premierships and was named in the club’s team of the century". 

The same Lily Mithen who grew up in Geelong.

The same Lily Mithen who turned down Geelong to play in their AFWL team to stick wtih the Demons.

Obviously puts in the scarf to match her date at the footy!   

See wwsw post below.  Her dad was a Richmond Board member.

Doubt she was going to wear a GWS scarf.

yep...her dad!

 

If most of us went to a non-demon GF we would probably support one of the teams and maybe even wear their colours - especially if a family member is involved with the club.  Didn't Jones where red and white when he watched little bro play his GF.

She has stayed true to the demons when given a chance to leave.  She didn't.  Says it all really.

Good to catch up today, @Return to Glory

With Burgess on board, top 4 next year, mate. You gotta believe!

Enjoy Tokyo. If you can, visit an old haunt of mine, Inokashira Park. A welcome oasis in the concrete jungle.

Top 4 it is Ben E. You told me this season was an aberration and I'm willing, albeit reluctantly, to accept your wisdom on the matter. Burgess, yeah that's his name.  And Inokashira Park it is.

Anyone live near Swan St?

Reading some of the celebrations got out of hand last night, flares, burning of cardboard signs mocking Toby Greene on rooftops, fans headbutting, punching and biting cops.

We wouldn’t make it anywhere to celebrate if we won a flag soon, we’d pass out at the G from all the excitement.

We need to analyse the success of Richmond, Geelong, Collingwood and Hawthorn and other big clubs with successful winning cultures.

It took 37 years for Richmond to break it's Premiership drought. We are coming up to 55-56 years for our Premiership drought.

 

We are only going to break the drought with lots of hard work, having good quality football people involved with our club and recruiting the right players.

I am still keen in getting Mark "Choco" Williams involved at the Melbourne Football Club.

Lots of money will help too.

Not denying they're a big club but I reckon Richmond now has as many faux supporters as Hawthorn when they were travelling. And that's saying something.

Hopefully GWS do a thorough review of the GF and change their game plan completely or they’ll end up in the bottom 4 next year

Or they'll follow MFC's Baldrick plan of not reviewing a thrashing in a final at all!! That worked !!!

Yes to Williams, but I dont think Goody would want a powerful figure like that.

I'd have GWS above us for a decent first quarter and keeping the Tigers goalless if it werent for a dodgy free kick to Riewoldt and a very late Rioli goal. Our prelim would've been x10 as horrendous if it was a GF

I don't think we would've got any junktime goals either. WCE would not have left anything in reserve for the following week and would've wanted to kick a half of celebratory goals.

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    The Demons once again went goalless in the last quarter and were run down by the Lions at the Gabba in the final minutes of the match ultimately losing the game by 5 points as their percentage dips below 100 for the first time since 2020.

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
