    Well, didn't Week 2 deliver!

    Quick question: being new to the whole  My Awesome Team Just Won The Premiership thing, one wonders for how long does one leave one’s house decorations up???

    Sadly, I’m familiar with the etiquette of a grand final loss (in particular, 2000) whereat one takes one’s decorations down as soon as it gets dark, all the while crying. Well, that was me anyways.

    I didn't get a pic in time but I saw a tram driver with a Melbourne scarf flapping out his window like you do in a car after a win.

    @TheWiz,@WalkingCivilWar, as this is all our Christmases come at once (including that they came on the 25th!!), I reckon 12 days at least. Indeed true tradition has Candlemas Eve (1 February) as the day of undecorating, so let's make it 1 November😁

    Got no plans to pull my modest display down (indeed I added the rest of my scarves at around 3am on Sunday🍷🍷🍷...) But I recognise yours is a more challenging conundrum*, WCW...

     

    (*Speaking of conundrums, WCW, I haven't forgotten the 'Ziggy' we're due to collect Round 1 next year! And now it might include a flag unfurling as a bonus!)

    Took a bunch of scarfs into the office today and made everyone in my team an honorary Melbourne supporter for the day, much to the disgust of my boss who's a Lions/Bears fan from day dot, but even he took it in good spirits.

    GO THE MIGHTY DEMONS!!!

    You've got the dream quinella. A Premiership and a visit to an office while many of us are in lockdown!

    I'm not sure if this is a fair guide, but there are still plenty of homes around me that still have black and yellow fences, gates, etc. I'm not sure if that's because they won three of the last four or because being Richmond supporters, by definition they are just a bit stupid.

    One of my new favorite lockdown activities is trying to spot Demon flags and other items on my daily 5km radius walk. I seem to live near quite a few Melbourne supporters. Our front yard has had the Melbourne flag up since post round 23!

    You would have to walk a long way to spot me on my daily walk I usually wear one of the many scarves I have accumulated over the years, especially during the many frosts we get here. My front gate was festooned with them. Yesterday I might have done a "Sheedy" a couple of times

    Yes, It could be worse We have the Rugby League followers up here who seem top hate Aussie rules and won't miss an opportunity to "enhance" our decorations.

    Nor have I forgotten! I’ll be there for Round 1 and I’ll be bearing a couple of “Ziggies” as promised.


    And I’m definitely leaving my decorations up ‘til November 1 much to the (likely) chagrin of my Bulldogs neighbours. Sorry (not sorry). 🙃

    I'll take mine down next Sunday morning, exactly one week later than I thought I'd be taking it down when we were three goals down in the third.

    I reckon wait til it's time for Christmas decorations and then have a 'red and blue' theme for those. Seamless.

    I'm actually going to leave mine up for a bit longer and in fact I'm getting another poster to put up next to the one on the front fence that says 2021 Premiers. That will stay up until I get sick of seeing it, which may be never.

    I've waited for such a long time to be able to say that, I think that leaving it up for a while is within my rights.

    Got my posters up yesterday & next plan is to put a spotlight under the flag to illuminate it at night. It can be seen flying during the day 500m away from down at the corner of my street. 😁

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
