    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 for one welcome everyone who wants to join our bandwagon

    the hallmark of successful sides is how many interlopers switch and clamber aboard

    i want our membership up to that 75k target; if people wanna join us now we can sniff success, the more the merrier

    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.

    Just enjoy every moment, and if we are able to win it this year, buy everything after our GF win😉

    If other supporters want to cheer us to a win, then let them come😊

    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!

    This is dumb. You want to build the club and shore up its existence?

    Get over seeing new faces - we need them.

    AND get used to seeing some old faces that you don’t like seeing! 

    Everyone welcome.

    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.

    Yep - the more, the merrier, I say. Get the Goodwin-Crows connection going strong this week, to get as many SA neutrals behind us on Sat night.

    Anyone who wants to support us is welcomed. As a neutral fan you’d surely be backing us and that’s great.

    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.

    Any chance SANFL Norwood supporters will turn up on Saturday night to give us some support?

    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.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
