I’m going to do something I promised I’d do if we made it. I’m going to watch the 2000 grand final for the first time. Just to remind myself how hard it will be if we lose and how important it is not to do it again.

What are other people going to do?

Ā 

Going to take it a day at a time. Replay on now and will give this clip a workout today. It’s Max day today.

I’m going to watch rounds 1 and 2 this year to see if I recognise that team or if we’ve grown throughout the year. I’m particularly interested in what I see after St Kilda get 20 up on us in the 2nd quarter. I remember I had a real feeling of ā€œhere we go again. Another wasted yearā€ but we never looked back after that and I came out of that game thinking something was different about this team.Ā

Absolutely. Just got it yesterday. Ā Starting today and will read over the next week. Ā 

And we have to turn the house into Red and Blue . I’m going to get every bit of club merchandise and find a place for it. Ā 

Get excited. Get nervous. Watch the replay. Cry a little. Drink a lot. Rinse and repeat.Ā

I’m really hoping that good needs a retitle soon

First on the list is to send commiseration messages to all the cats fans i know.


Ima decorate the outside of my house with the huge box of streamers, flags etc. that I amassed before the 2018 prelim but were never used. Then ima post a pic of it on DL. ā¤ļøšŸ’™

…. Oh, and cry. A lot. ā¤ļøšŸ’™

Happy tears, happy tears.Ā 

With no football to worry about until the big dance, I finally have time to do what I've always wanted: write the great American novel.Ā Mine is about a futuristic amusement park where dinosaurs are brought to life through advanced cloning techniques. I call it 'Billy and the Cloneasaurus.'

MFCSS stricken panic.


I'll be taking it one week at a time.....except the next game is 2 weeks away!!!!!

I reckon by Monday I will need to see a Doctor....

Time to Read ā€œThe Red Foxā€ again and watch Robbie Flower 🌹 HighlightsĀ

I couldn't watch the first quarter let alone the whole match. You're a lot tougher than I am. I'll be watching the Gus and Gawny podcasts. And plenty of the games from throughout this year.

My backyard needs some serious gardening, its also good for stress relief.

Getting a permit to head to the office on Monday to empty the warehouse of red and blue ribbons so I can make my front yard look like a Demon Mardi Gras float.Ā 


I think I’m going to be forced to spend the whole two weeks hunting for the gif I saw once (and in my post match Twitter like-clicking frenzy forgot to save) of Garry Lyon getting very excited at the game.

This is some SWYL Painting, aged 5 Preps 1969

it has hung in the Bedroom wall for many years. At times i have almost taken it down, but no.Ā

Demons are for life….

Work, watch some replays, watch some EPL, watch some NFL.

  • NON-MFC: Round 07

    Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

  • PREGAME: Richmond

    The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

    A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
