What traditions, celebrations and superstitions do you take into this time of year.

I’ve got a 1980 bottle of MFC premiership port that was given to my late father and at the time we vowed to open it if a GF win ever came our way. 

Would love the chance to crack it open this year. Not sure how it will taste but it would be worth it.

Much to the missus' horror, my full sized flag now hangs from the lace ironwork of upper bedroom window. 

Starting to see some other red & blue about our 'burb.

I am wearing my #positivelingers Tee Shirt and MFC socks for each game.  So far so good

 

The Dees traditionally do a lap of the bullring in the MCC members after a premiership. It won't be happening this year and unbelievably it's not because we won't win the premiership.

I'm not putting up any red and blue decor inside or outside until I know we are in the GF.

MFCSS or superstition?  Either way, don't want to jinx us.

I went nuts on amassing streamers and flags etc. in the weeks leading up to the 2018 prelim. (Still had some from 2000!) The huge box remains untouched since then. I’m so tempted to adorn the outside of my house nowish but don’t wanna tempt fate. 😬

Extremely rare would love to have a bottle of that myself.

Traditionally I'd root for the underdog considering we've only been in two grand finals in my lifetime. 

But, this year, that's flipped on it's [censored] head... We're the anointed ones.

So traditionally when we are favourite, I pace furiously around the room expecting us to lose, with an 8% beer in my hand quarter after quarter.

My wife wants to know if I'm up for watching the Grand Final (she doesn't really care for Football, but understands its an annual ritual in our society and likes to honour it) ... I don't think I could bare to watch the match with anyone else in the same room - if we get to the Grand Final...

 

Signs of the upcoming apocalypse

 

  1. Worldwide pandemic
  2. Global climate change
  3. Demons being good at footy

 

All await the end of days and the rise of the demons!!!!!

Figure none of these players were at Victoria Park, R22 1976. 
None were even born for a VFL Park prelim. 
Bowey wasn’t even born when I queued all night in 2000  

Didn’t feel sorry for any of these guys after I sat thru 186 at Geelong  

New era  - new team

I saw 3 young kids (under 6 I'd say) wearing demons gear at my local park which I have never ever seen before.

A great sign for the future and shows much impact success can have for future members/fans

A nice tradition and good thread

Could you not have a small ('minor') glass now??  :-)

I wear my Melbourne runners for every game

Edited by ucanchoose

Our sausage dog used to have to wear his demons jumper/ dog coat for evey game.

Sadly he has gone to doggie heaven after attacking too many people.

(Should have called him Toby.)

Aside from that just me wearing my old scarf which I think I will hang out the front soon.

Here in Northern Wollongong it will be unrecognized i guess.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
