Make sure to have someone video it and post on DL

I will post a video of myself on Twitter celebrating in my Melbourne scarf, 

 

fully dressed.

Why does everyone else have to be weird?

I'd be envious if you said "with nothing but my Melbourne sock on".

Never ever doubt the MFC for infinity.

… or not. 

Drink too much Beer and get a case of Gout. As they say there is no glory without pain.

Bye the Jumper from Offical Memorabilia just like i did last year. If we don't I just sit down and look at the one I brought last year.

This is easily the most depressing thing I’ve read today. And I’ve read a lot on Demonland. 😭

Will have lost a lot of money like last year although this year I've been sensible in taking a lot more at the line bets. Cmon Dees take my money. Brizzy next week, 18.5 points and 3.20HH. Few injuries I'm taking both. 


Not be surprised.

Nothing. It's just not our year.

Next year on the other hand. Supremely confident if we can really fix our game plan and forward line structure.

Switching off the life support machine already? Sad.

I hope our players don't have the same mindset as some of our supporters... Some of them are basically suggesting we forfeit this season 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

No.

I just see it from a realistic point of view and our inability to not tweak our game plan at all this year to counter these top 4 teams. 

We should beat Brisbane because they're actually average. 

Geelong on the other hand are well drilled across the field. They're like Sydney and are extremely well disciplined and yet have just won a final at the MCG when most of you erote them off as having no chance of winning a final at the G.

Our game plan simply doesn't stand up against these tops sides. Simple as that.

We're also physically banged up. It's very evident last night with the amount of guys we had with knee bandages. Add that to the 5 players that all had to get scans today and proves my point that we're just banged up physically. That alone won't stand up against these fitter sides like Geelong and Sydney who have managed their players well this year.

All valid points. But despite this, there’s still a pulse. And while there’s still a possibility we should not write ourselves off. It’s like a batsman heading back to the sheds before being given.

Regardless what happens I'm extremely proud of the boys this year. Physically hunted all year and still finished top 4.

Aa I've already said. Next year I'm extremely confident we can finish top 3 again if we can tweak our game plan and fix up our forward structure. 

The age and games played demographic is right in the sweet spot for next year also.

 

Pies won’t be going out in straight sets if today was any indication.

Think they’ll easily account for Dogs or Freo with an 80-20/90-10 crowd ratio in their favour.

All well and good, but maybe talk about next year when this season is done. To do so beforehand is textbook defeatism.

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
