Things to do in the two weeks until the grand final

Featured Replies

Posted

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.

  • The Clayton Oliver Thread

    Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

    It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

    The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

    The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
