This was my favourite from the BF forum: Since Gary Rohan kicked a goal to put Geelong 44 points up in round 23, Melbourne has scored 409 to 171, a percentage of 239.2 To have that dominance

I normally love basking in the schadenfreude of other supporters losing their minds at their team’s performance, but I think in this case I just want to enjoy the win and leave them in peace. Doesn’t

I read through that game day thread on the WOOF web site and just reading their comments on "that 10 minutes" gave me chills all over again. From hope, confidence, belief, to shell shock and trau

A friend of mine is a Doggies supporter and he asked are we up for it - as we have only played played 1 game in 4 weeks?

Tell him no, we're out of form and soft as butter.

I really need to ask the question. When was the last time Hannan played 2 good games in a row? I don’t think he even played 2 good quarters in a row when he played for us.

I'm wondering why as well. Pace seems to have picked up as well.

They are certainly due for a choke, they've got all the pressure really we've got a massive out if we lose.

If we win it's the greatest flag ever.

If they win, they beat that team that copped a raw deal.

These guys have surprised me this year with their new found mettle; I'm waiting for the real Demons to appear.

 

Love the inflated confidence and feeling hard done by. They bottomed out at the wrong time - chucked the game against Port to guarantee top 4 and then gifted by the umpires their semi final win against the Lions…talk about a raw deal lol give me a break.

Can’t see us choking from here and if anything the opposite is more likely…

When Tom Hafey coached the Tigers his game plan was to kick it to Royce Hart.

When asked about his plan B he replied "Kick it to Royce Hart".

I’ve got a bit of a soft spot for the Doggies and wouldn’t want to tease them for losing but it’s what they’re saying at St. Kilda that amuses me -

dragit wrote in 2014 before St Kilda drafted Paddy McCartin at #1 ahead of Christian Petracca:

Don't think I will ever recover if we take McCartin and he flops while Petracca becomes the gun that everybody is predicting.

We don't want to risk taking a raging bull mid/fwd with a hip problem, but we'll take the chance on an overweight, diabetic & injury prone full forward that is 3 inches shorter than the other key forwards coming through the system.

After tonight’s game Trixilver wrote:

It's so creepy seeing Alan Richardson in a melbourne kit hugging Petracca with a norm smith around his neck. It was like a fever dream watching him rip that final apart.

While I’m deliriously happy, a part of me feels a bit sad for the Doggies. I lived out that way before moving back to Japan, and have very fond memories of it.

If it was Hawthorn (and especially Jeffrey K), I wouldn’t give a crap. Doggies supporters are generally good sorts and as salt of the earth as you can get. I’m not going to dance on their grave.

Fully agree as a former westie dweller (living next door to someone who thought Luke Darcy was God), but on the other hand ... get flucked Doggies!

I remember when in 1987 we won the last game of the season at the Footscray Oval to get into the finals for the first time in 23 years and the joy of singing the clubs theme song.

Now we get to sing it again but after the premiership has been won.

This clown had a pain in the [censored] twice this week, one was a tattoo and the other was the MFC. The easy fix would be to get the 21 changed to 16.

Had a read of their game day thread.
Enjoyed their shock and despair when when we went on the rampage in the 3rd.
They were daring to dream and Nek Minut .... It was over.
Poor fools.

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
