All this thread needs is a premature club mail out commemorating the occasion.

Hopefully our club isn't so starved of success they feel the need to release one of these

    I'd buy the 25 disc set (only on Blu-Ray though).

    Why start a post 'Top of the Ladder' before the game has been played? Melbourne has form in putting the cart before horses. Patience, let it unfold, if they are the real thing, they are the real thing. THat will be determined week by week. It has been a STRANGE season so far, topsy upon turvy and vice versa. Remember too, we would like to be September heroes for a change. March to July are one act preludes.

    How normal Melbourne supporters are acting right now exhibit A:

    Me to my dad: good news Port are losing 

    My Dad: things are going too well... bad [censored] is going to start happening soon 

    Me: yep

    Don't you feel it Jaded? This is it. There's something in the air, and for the first time in 50 years it's something GOOD!!! Just go with it, because if you don't then it might not happen.

    Enjoy the run... i certainly shall

    The challenge always was in the second half of the season.

    When I saw the draw I thought we could with luck go 8-3 or better for the first half

    Brisbane in Alice is looking tough along with the Dogs game

    Let's face it while we have had a few finals appearances the seasons themselves have been mainly excruciatingly close.

    A little MFCSS brewing in me that such a great opportunity can be blown by us, I’d just love the boys to be on from the first bounce and smash any signs of an upset away by quarter time.

    Well ... Golllllllllllllllllllllllly

    we're there

    it wasn't pretty but it will feel better in the morning

    Go Dees

    our team should be really fresh for next weeks game, given half of them didn’t seem to warrant putting in too much effort (captain included).

    “A lot” simply means we will struggle to put them away for most of the game by playing a lazy, selfish style of play.

    I think I nailed it.

    I also said today that McDonald wouldn’t play as a defender again and about 30 seconds later he was playing as a defender.

    They talked the other week about how Jones has played nearly the most games with his team without his team never being on top. Now he has, they don’t want to talk about it. So used to the Demons being the whipping boys, they only want to produce negative news about the Dees.

    In the words of the emperor Nero, may they self-procreate

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
