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.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
