    Gotta love the way he's gone about it. Rather than feel sorry for himself he's taken up the fight. Well played young man.

    Oh, and if you do ever start feeling down, I have the remedy ;)

    Surrender is the best health policy. Re mental illnesses.  going it alone is detrimental.

    I say this without meaning to sound flippant but that goal by Mitch did a lot for my mental health. I have watched it probably 30 times since and I always feel happy. 
    I think that’s why I have always been a passionate supporter. Watching football is such a wonderful distraction from some of the seriousness of life

    Strong is the show strength. To speak up. Strength to battle on. Not succumb to your mental demons.

    It doesn't take strength to battle on.   It takes persistence and desire.

    Strength has zero to do with it.

     

    In fact,  using  'strength'  as the terminology,  is detrimental,  Re depression/anxiety. 

    Strength is such an ambiguous word,  that so many people have differing perceptions of meaning...    Is it  'weak',  that someone has been burdened with depression???    I don't think so, And I sincerely hope people out there do not think they MUST be  'weak',  to find they are depressed.

     

    Saying,  "be strong",  imply's the alternative is to be 'WEAK'.   People with Depression/Anxiety are highly likely to be in a deep negative mental framework.  And will likely take the opposing perception of the Saying__

    You don't  "fight"  mental illness.   You work with it,  go with the flow,  dealing with it.  Easing the strain.

    Going  "against the stream",  and doing that alone,  is a major cause of stress, and emotional fatigue, and great unhappiness. 

    Stress,  a great contributor towards 'Depression'.

    I spoke to him at training during the 2018/19 pre season and told him no matter what happens in his career he'll always have this. I said many great players waited a whole career to play in a final and didn't even have a memory like this. He burst into the biggest grin and said thanks mate.   I spoke to him again in Feb at Maroochydore when they were heading back. He was about to order something and I said I'd leave him in peace and he said no worries mate just let me order and I'm happy to have a chat. Couldn't have been nicer. Special guy. Really hope his career takes off again. He has plenty to offer on and off field.  We could all be queuing up for some mental health tips in a month or two of isolation. 

    I've just got through 3 months of self isolating with recovery from an Op so unfortunately already have experience. Can 't believe I'm about to go through it for the second time in six months. There are worse things to deal with. Demonland's going to take a hammering.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
