How I feel about other supporters who want to jump on our journey


Wizard of Koz

Recommended Posts

I normally have a preferred team that I’d like to see win, either a mates team or one that hasn’t won one for ages, so I certainly don’t mind people jumping on our journey. 🤷🏼‍♂️ Hell, if we make the GF I’d be happy if a lot of neutral supporters that will be able to attend, wherever the game is played, support us loudly. 💪🏼🔵🔴

I had some fondness for Carlton and North because of Barassi.  And some of my mates followed the Tigers so I was on that bandwagon in the 70's.

And there is much goodwill to the MFC simply because we are called Melbourne.

All aboard.

What have I done wrong? I haven’t even made an appearance in the thread yet? 😎😉

We’ll have a ‘fairytale year’ where we aren’t the object of blatant hostility. If we win and become a dynasty, the Hatorade will flow thick and fast.

We’re here to embrace the joy, not wallow in collected resentments. I say drink it in!

what do you mean mate? CBF What does that mean?

Replied and then decided to delete it because I couldn't be "effed" dealing with it tbh.

Bizarre thread mate. I was happy for the Dogs, I was happy for Richmond (the first time), I think it's great that other fans want us to do well.

The last time we had a genuine bandwagon was 87 I reckon. I welcome every. single. one. 
For the older more bruised of us, like myself, we can take a particular pleasure that only those who have suffered know. But every sungle supporter who turns up at this hour brings a bit more joy to my heart.

I understand that newcomers will not understand our experience of enduring disappointment for 57 years; but whatever, everyone’s welcome.
It is, however, sweeter for those of us who have suffered the most.

Considering most of our games will be watched live by neutrals I hope they all jump on our bandwagon and shake whatever stadium we play in.

I can understand the sentiment. I went week in and week out when we got thumped every week. When you are down and out out and get txts from people hanging [censored] on you. They won't be coming to my party.

There are lots of mates that sympathized with me over that period. They are welcome on the bandwagon and are jumping on.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
