  1. 1. Hypothetically, we lose the Prelim. You've got angry, you've got sad, you've blamed Tmac and Spargo, and perhaps the umpires and coach....Time has passed - in the cold harsh light of objectivity - will you be satisfied with the Season of 2021

Things that annoy me is that so many teams won it before us. Sydney won it in 2005. When Cats won it, it was hard because although we’d been heckled for our lack of success more, we could always say that Cats have suffered longer. Then when dogs won, we inherited the longest-continuing premiership drought. 

Clubs like Collingwood had the audacity to claim that 2010 broke a “drought.” Especially from people who went through the long “Colliewobbles” era, this seemed almost an insult. It was 20 years, a colour grand final and and AFL premiership. That’s not a drought. Real Collingwood fans know what a drought is.

Now I see Geelong fans saying they’ve “waited a long time” for their next premiership.  No, sorry 1963-2007 was a long time. This is nothing. They don’t really need or are starved for a premiership. We’re the ones in a drought. We want, deserve and need this more than any other club. I will just tear my hair out if any of these other teams win. They’ve had their turn now they think they have the audacity to claim that they have been waiting a long time.

Its our turn. We need to win it for the fans. We will have to give everything and want it more. It’s not going to be given to us. They have to fight tooth and nail for this. Like someone else said here: CUP OR BUST.

There are a few who will never be satisfied. 

If they were at least happy with MFC, then they wouldn't attack me, "barrack for Gold Coast you stange person, with a bad attitude".

 Still can't believe there are many nasty people in this world and a few on demonland.

Should be ashamed of yourselves, almost a disgrace, living the lie behind your pretentious facades.

No, I wouldn’t be satisfied. Contextually we have the best chance of winning a premiership in almost 6 decades. So I won’t be happy walking away with a participation ribbon. 
 

Don’t celebrate ‘almost’.

At half time during the last cats game im pretty sure i would have said yes.

But becoming minor premiers for the first time in since 64...its a now a firm no. 

And beating the cats from being so far behind at kardinia I feel we must win tonight.

Id be satisfied to make a granny as then i feel we are improving but nobody loses them without feeling gutted.

So its to the toppermost from here.

Not Satisfied. I would be heartbroken.

At least I feel very proud of where we are now as a club - but 2021 would count for nought unless we win this year and/or we don't at least maintain this level of consistency and competiveness for the next few years.

I won't be throwing the toys out of the cot if we don't win the flag this year. We've shown how far we've come this year and it will be no doubt inaccuracy rather than ability/system/talent that sees us fall short which is a good sign for future years given our list profile and talent at our disposal.

But if we then proceed to fade back into oblivion next year and beyond, well that's another story.

    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.

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders.

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)
