Have we beaten anyone yet? I'm not crying, we're all crying. This is for Neale, Jim, Robbie, Jonesy, Dean, Ron 😍 We have waited so long. And finally. After 57 long years. We have broken

My Child . . . yes, you have indeed sinned. But all graceful 'Landers have mercy. For your penance:

  • $1,000 to the poor box (i.e. North Melbourne charity cake stall fundraising drive in Feb 2022),
  • 100 hours of volunteer work in the Collingwood finance department,
  • Pray once a day for Horethorn's board,
  • Never pray for Carlton, and
  • Watch the 2021 GF replay at least once a week between now and when the AFLW season commences in 2022.

Go in pease Child, your humility and honesty have saved you. Your sins are forgiven.

Amen.

Look, I just can't keep up with the 👍-ing and 😄-ing and occasional 🧡-ing and 🤔-ing I should be doing on this thread. So take them as read.

But I do note the 2000-post milestone approaches. Better still, the 2021 milestone follows shortly thereafter!

Take your marks...

Awww, I’m sure it was only coz she never got the chance to meet you. 😉 

Elle actually did back in 1990; but she was too shy back then so nothing came of it, and there's no way it would have compared to the 2021 premiership.

In having a one month anniversary watching of round 23 onwards this afternoon, before I head out to a local pub.

(with my 5yo who wants to wear a tuxedo 🤣 and we will honour, as he wants to go to a fancy restaurant (its the BHP))...

Every single time I see this person, post Max Gawn's goal against the cats, snapping form the boundary - I just feel he/she encapsulates every Melbourne supporter who drinks...EVERY.SINGLE.TIME

*I'm just going to neck what I have in my hand, get another, kick back and enjoy the show!

I was just reading the 13 Victories Shaping Melbourne's 13th Flag and the 13th contained this,

the Dees piled on 16.4 (100) to the Bulldogs measly 1.1 (7) and ran out 74 point victors

I'm still having difficulty coming to terms with this and get the tingles when I think of the last quarter and a half. I've never seen a quarter and a half as devastating as this before.

That 16.4 happened with 1.5 quarters to go, equivalent to 66.67 points per quarter or 267 points for the match. Let’s not forget this was against the 2nd best team for the year.

That’s how hot we were.

I guess most of us were flag virgins not that long ago. Our elation is no doubt much higher than say a eagles fan who would have experienced "multiple highs" from their success but we still get what many other fans have been getting on a more consistent basis.

A PREMIERSHIP IS JUST BLOODY AWESOME.

There is an old quote that ... virginity is a recurring condition. 

I hope we win a flag again ASAP.

I hope we win so many that we become hunted and despised.

If they’re anything like their players they’re experiencing multiple highs, flag or no flag. 😏

(I am rather old...)

It’s all about the ice… 

Vanilla Ice sings Ice, Ice Baby and for some people Ice (methamphetamine) is their illicit drug of choice. 
And btw Tim, the fact that you aren’t familiar with Vanilla Ice doesn’t mean you’re old. Probs just means you have good taste in music. 😁

EO, you've made me watch replays AGAIN! Oh, the 'pain'...

I've realised he's just arrived at his row with the beer as the ball's being thrown up. So he's sculled it there and then, not even getting to his seat.

Must have missed a few more goals then, returning to the queue...

Every time I go to a friends place, the replay is on and I don't want to be rude so I sit and watch it.

Of course, at home I like to watch the season unfold, so I watch the games we played during the year, aside from the losses, and watch our team get better with every win. It's amazing that Fritter has improved so much that he almost took out the Norm Smith, there are other players that also improved dramatically and I can see why some fell out of the side not to return.

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.
