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?

 

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 “here we go again. Another wasted year” but we never looked back after that and I came out of that game thinking something was different about this team.

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

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.  

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

I’m really hoping that good needs a retitle soon


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. ❤️💙

…. Oh, and cry. A lot. ❤️💙

Happy tears, happy tears. 

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. 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....

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. 


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. 
 

Demons are for life….

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

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
