    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. 😁

    Where did you get the top poster that looks like an old WEG one? I would prefer that one to the one the Herald Sun are pushing.

    Soooo how long can we leave our stuff up for until our houses get egged?

    I've asked 12 non MFC supporters the question and most have said; after 57 yrs, as long as you like.

    One person said; till preseason starts and I think I'll run with that. Mrs Dw has informed me that the 2 highest flags are never coming down ... ever.

    Love the user name update!

     

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

    Get some Demons up for Halloween as well

    It's probably Demonland Royalty... the question is... which poster?

    Missed this pre-game, so making amends now! Love the attention to detail with the team list. Got the 'Premiers' update (though maybe it was a pre-game prediction?!) In my region's 'Brahton', up the road from my modest village...20211015_153012.thumb.jpg.2b0083e651d6050f6ad7aaed76fc6bab.jpg

    Still got the flag flying from the front porch. It’s easier for passers by to see since the cherry blossom tree on the nature strip blew down on Friday. I think I’ll do what that fella in East Melbourne does and fly it between our first and last game each season.

    Friday’s crazy winds blew our side fence down and took our neighbour’s roof off but my decorations remain unscathed. It’s a sign. They’re not going anywhere anytime soon. 😁

    For years I've been travelling from the south-east to Melbourne airport along CityLink past the Toyota Melbourne HQ where they have 18 flagpoles with the team flags flying in ladder order. I've been used to us being toward the western end of the flagpoles. This year I haven't been on that road once so missed seeing us positioned most of the time as the first flag you see when travelling west. I hope our team flag is up there now and still there until at least Round 1 2022, and hopefully longer.

    Still up here (my even more modest pre-match display had babies at 3am on the morning of the26th...). I believe the circumstances demand they remain up for 57 days...

     

    At least.

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • NON-MFC: Round 14

      Round 14 is upon us and there's plenty at stake across the rest of the competition. As Melbourne heads to Adelaide, it's time to turn our attention to the other matches of the Round. Which teams are you tipping this week? And which results would be most favourable for the Demons’ finals tilt?

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
