When it was airing, I said to myself "…and back? We're not back yet surely."

So I decided I wouldn't watch this series till we win a flag. Didn't think we'd get this close this quick.

    I watched all the episodes again after our GWS loss earlier in the year and pretended it was all about this years pre-season.

    Around about the 23 minute mark is when they talk about the draft (what we now know as a super a draft) and I always remember Alan Richardson saying we should take Jackson.

    Was very well done and l understand it got lots of clicks ... given we came off a horrid season l'm sure it retained a few memberships we would have otherwise lost

    This was the start when the playing group started to build trust in each other our recruitment was brilliant, this was the start of team first. We didn’t get back in one season but we learnt a lot of valuable lessons that have held up and now we are almost there. I enjoyed this and we still had to make those tough calls at the end of 2020 to make sure everyone was buying in.

    Go Dees.❤️💙

    Yes that would have been worse after 2019. It is tough, naming shows I have been in production meetings where the whiteboard is blank and waiting. 
     

    Redemption is the only word, that I kept coming up with. 
     

    Won’t matter in 10 days hopefully, some may even call it inspired!!

    It was meant to be taken as to hell and then back there (to hell).

    I don't think ito hell and back was a shocking title anyway, if it was made in the last preseason it would be called a good title

    if we win the holy grail and not being a patron of talk back radio, the first thing I'm going to do is ring Kane Cornes and remind him of his previous comments on air, re this great insight and - dare I say it -  marketing tool.

    If only............ .  I keep hearing the melody to the Dire Straits song; "Brothers in Arms".  This is the connection that I hope exists within the playing group, which will get us the ultimate prize.

    But it wasn’t. It was made after the 2019 Season (5 wins)

    If we win the granny next weekend, MFC should create another video and call it ' To Hell and back- For Real This Time'

    It should have been called “If you’re going through hell…”

    I guess that would work better than: To Hell and Back with a Brief Stop in Purgatory.

    But in the 2020 season we come 9th, so the team was back from hell and into purgatory, also after this year there might be a another video, and it will be called to hell and back part 2, so it will all make sense

    • 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.
