Not for me unfortunately. What I'm seeing on the field is pleasing and different to many of the false dawns I've witnessed in the past. However my MFCSS is so ingrained that I keep expecting the wheels to fall off at every turn. Only a premiership will alleviate the negativity that I have in my head and my heart and even then it will only be a band aid until the next season. Perhaps a three-peat will help ...

You could written that about me. After half century 8 wins won't do it.

    I started coining the phrase DOA (Decade of Arrogance) some time back, but have had to postpone or rethink a few times (in the last 50 years). However I have matured and area now taking it "one week at a time".

    The season now has gone : 

    A good start  (Freo) , Bloody hell 2 in a row (Saints), 3WOA (GWS), Ripper (Geelong NRL) , Just  another win (Horforn ),              "Faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa*&&( K"" (Toiges) , 7WOA (Norf) and now 8WOA (Swans) .

    Would dearly love a YOA !!!!

    Might help but pretty sure it won't cure it.
    Reckon Richmond supporters are still rather insecure for eg.
    They can feel their rein at the top ending.

    And lets say we did win one as the Bulldogs did and then like them come out the next year and not even make finals.
    I'd still be furious.
    As I was in 2001 after losing the GF in 2000.

    That is the thing about winning premierships, the euphoria last until round 1 the next season, after 1964 the demons where the most feared club in the VFL, by round 12 in 1965 everyone was saying the demons who

    My euphoria probably won't last that long .

    Winning a GF might give me a heart attack ( worth it ) . If it doesn't the euphoria will last a lifetime !

    I’m similar except for the last bit. One premiership will satiate me. That’s all I need to see, just one. 
    Stalking the Richmond board after losses, those ungrateful [censored] make me sick. It’s like the recent flags stand for nothing, they get stuck in and world is ending. 
     

    I’m also a Liverpool supporter, we’re having the season from hell but I couldn’t care less, I just saw a Champions League and Premier League trophy, yet some fans want the whole club sacked. I don’t get it.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • 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.
