Did anyone see the pre promo that Channel 7 had going? It was mostly around the Norm Smith curse.

It was very spine tingling and was a pretty power video.

Did anyone see it and can anyone upload on here please?

I saw it and thought it was pretty good. Funny that the Lions didn't get 'equal time'.

I'm hardly a superstitious person, but if we win this year's flag, I might believe that the curse is/was real.

How long has it been since we won our last premiership - 57 years

How old was Norm Smith when he passed away - 57 years

Spooky...

Interesting as well that Norm Smith coached Barassi, who in turn coached Blight, who then coached Goodwin. It's as if Norm Smith passed his coaching ability down the line and it has finally returned home to Melbourne.

Not sure how many follow Cathy Price on instagram. (Brad Greens partner) If you jump on her instgram she's uploaded a video of him in tears watching this exact video.

Not only does this mean to the supporters but we forget it means just as much to the past players of the club ❤

Who was on the committee that sacked Norm Smith?

The MFC was part of the MCC at that point and so it was the MCC Committee that sacked Smith I believe.

You guys would understand the Norm Smith impact more.

For us that weren't around at that time I think for the first time watching that promo made really realise the impact it's had on this footy club.

You’re right Daz. I was too young to remember the actual day Norm was sacked, but it was still big news as i got older during the 70’s. 
Imagine if Hawthorn sacked Clarko Mid Season 2016

It was a HUGE Story

The MCC Board did it…

watch this

The Channel 7 one is brilliant. Really captures the pain we've all felt as fans over the past 20 years especially.

Am I right in saying a few of the fan snippets were from Round 2, 2013 after the 150 point defeat to Essendon?

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
