The Melbourne Football Club is on the verge of its first minor premiership since the invention of colour. 

Yet, we've still not done anything to actively address the dreaded Norm Smith curse, so MFCSS is obviously running hot.

This is a space to let your MFCSS go wild, a deeply pessimistic thread where you'll be supported by like-mind folks. 

Let your damaged imagination run wild. What horrible events will trip us up from now until the last day in September? 

Which is the worst possible injury we will get during our billion-point win over the Crows, obviously in the last two minutes? 

How will the maybe fake Covid-19 global pandemic conspire to rort us and us alone, probably in cahoots with a corrupt AFL?  

What's the worst possible Grand Final day outcome you can conjure, from a twenty goal thrashing to a one-point loss? 

Deliver your very worst. The cruellest of suggested scenarios will win the inaugural MFCSS medal, regardless of outcome. 

 

 

 

I have already mentioned on a post about the disadvantage Covid has done to the Dees .

No worry re the curse as the spirit in the team can not be broken . Did you see the spirit when Thomo had his first run this week . Whatever happens is ok with me .

Where were the Olympics help when the Dees last won a premiership ?

I actually do believe that the North Smith curse has been cleansed.

Very simply, we are from tip to toe a club with a culture to be proud of both as a competitive unit and as human beings.

If we win a premiership, we will deserve it.

 

I’d say in the ultimate twist of irony, the rapture, followed by biblical apocalypse, will occur two minutes prior to the final siren of a grand final Melbourne is leading by 5 goals.
In the cruelest insult of all, Beelzebub himself will manifest himself in the stadium to announce that the match will be called off before devouring the premiership cup and immediately defacating it as a pile of molten slag in front of a bevy of inconsolable Melbourne supporters. :cool:


Clayton Oliver or Max Gawn having a shot for goal from 20 mtrs out directly in front to win the grand final after the siren would be pretty cruel.

Or Spargo anywhere from outside 35.

We will thrash Adelaide and Geelong in our last two H&A games then go out in straight sets in the finals.

I can see us winning the first two finals games in complete control and then on the Grand Final day not kicking a goal until just before half time to be only 9 goals down.    How is that !

 

This is going to sound absolutely nuts, but I foresee a game where we’re 6 goals up in the final quarter, and then the match gets delayed by a freak lightning storm, giving our opponents time to rest and launch a comeback!

Probably never happen I guess.. 


We kick 9-22 but are beaten by Geelongs 12-5

As each gettable set-shot is sprayed left or right our collective hearts sink as we realise the inevitability of what is unfolding in front of our eyes

Yeah, good one!

Super-sub Nathan Jones down on his haunches after missing an after-the siren grand final winning goal, as this rings out across an empty MCG and some kid born in 2002 called Ryan Angwin steps up to collect his premiership medal after a career tally of two touches and one behind:

Sounds like the 2018 finals series.

I recall that Collingwood had some sort of official ceremony when their curse was lifted? 

Feared all year we’d be 3 games clear on top and season pulled

I can't answer to this. It is all too real.

Umpire Nicholls to get the opposition whoever they are across the line.

I'll have a pre-game conniption if that bald [censored] lines up for the Grand Final. So MFCSS.

Gawn could be holding up the premiership cup and I’d still be worried we’d lose.

Dude, you’re not doing MFCSS properly.

 

  • Oliver, Tracktor and May car pool. 
  • Arrive at airport five minutes late.
  • Rest of team arrive in Perth to begin their seven days quarantine after crushing Jeelong by 15 goals in the preliminary at Kardinia Park.
  • The other MCG (McGowan) says "sorry boys", . . . 
  • Deez loose by five points on Robbie Grey's last kick of the day from the hotdog stand after Melksham gives away a 50 metre penalty on the halfback flank (awarded by umpire Nicholls of course).

Post script November . . .

With a premiership and Norm Smith medal secured, Deez offer Robbie Grey 800K for 2022 to be our icing on the cake. He declines, accepting the Suns offer of $1M per year for three years.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

  • PREGAME: West Coast

    The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

    Captain Max Gawn still has a massive lead in the Demonland Player of the Year Award from Christian Petracca, Kozzy Pickett, Jake Bowey & Clayton Oliver. Your votes please; 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1.

    It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
