    Hopefully Petty is back then too - critical to our team structure.

    Definitely beat them 2017. I was back in Australia and watched a bit on TV. First i'd ever heard of big freeze and celebrities going down slides into a pool of ice. Its the MCG  not Disneyland. Its for charity i believe .

    1 out of 10

    I suspect that for five of those years at least we were the higher ranked team.

    Oh well .. let's see what this year brings

    We have 2-8 record on the Holiday Monday against Collingwood in the last 10. It's starting to get humiliating.

    We've won 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2016, 2017.

    There is a myth going around that we also won the Queens Birthday game in 2000 where Farmer kicked 9 but that occurred on the Saturday of the QBDAY weekend.

    Fantastic news with Oliver.

    We won two in a row think 2017 and 2016.

    This.

    He and Clarry make us so much better.

    Somehow I don't think he will make it. Still listed as 2-3 weeks, but I guess we do have 10 days between games so it's possible. He does tend to take longer to recover from injuries in general.

    Clarry is a magical healing unicorn.

    • Whispering_Jack changed the title to Clayton Oliver Set to Return for Kings Birthday

    Statistically speaking with every loss, we get closer to a win.. that is all the logic I can count on now because every other insight tells me we are going to lose another one this year.

    • 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 The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.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.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • 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.
