When you say you’re a Melbourne supporter.

 

Mine would have to be: “when was the last time Melbourne won the premiership?”

 

Saturday can change that

 

wait until next year 

 

In a totally patronising way:

If (insert $h!tty team) don’t win it this year, I hope you guys do. 

"The Bulldogs week off benefits them more than the Demons 1 game in 28 days"

I'm way too focused on the game this week to think about the 57 years preceding it or any regular Melbourne barbs from the usual numpties.

Melbourne supporters going to the snow!!

I’m just sick of being reminded about how rubbish we were.

We, Melbourne supporters know this better than anyone else.

I want to celebrate watching a team that is not only full of great players but is now playing as a great team.

The question - “Are you nervous?”

Only one reply - “it’s been 57 years, so wadda YOU reckon?” 
 

FMD!

The bigger the downfall the greater the comeback.


Long suffering supporters.

Do you know the players names - (well done Nos 5)

After a loss of four goals or less…

(Again, Patronisingly):

“Well, you weren’t thrashed. So there’s that.”

Technically, it’s an acronym. 😉

Over the last two weeks there's no contest for me.  It is "We beat them in round 19 without Treloar or Dunkley".  I'll spew if I hear it again.

But with Bruce

1 game in four weeks, when the reality is on grand final day it will be our third game in 5 weeks and their fourth.

 

I’m sick of hearing about Caleb Bloody Daniel. Yes he has great vision and awareness, yes he’s a reliable kick, but he’s a reliable 11 metre kick. Most of kicks don’t go the required 15 metres, and I personally don’t see him as damaging as some of the other back flankers.

Im also sick of hearing that the Dogs have the best midfield, on Saturday there’s a couple of slackers that go by the names of Oliver, Trac and Viney who I think will put this myth to rest. 

Have never been able to reconcile why I seem to take the attitude towards/perception of the MFC so personally. It perplexes my wife too. The Range Rover and snow stuff has always riled me up.

Even if it all goes south on Saturday this last month has been enjoyable in seeing that there are so many other people who have similar feelings about all this.

I like to think if we get it done on Saturday the boys will do it with humility and class and our supporters will afford more respect to our opponents and other supporters than what seems to be the norm for winners in Aussie rules football. The club do seem to have taken a decent step forward this year with cutting out the ill conceived arrogance and focusing on the work.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

  • PREGAME: West Coast

    The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

  • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

    It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
