Just another reminder as to how far this club has come. Another night to open proceedings with the eyes of the entire footy nation upon us. 

What a time to be a Dee!

Or something like that..

One swallow is often one too many: it's called a Hangover.

Just listening to the pre game on Fox.

King told the story of his coaching days at Carey when Jack Viney was there.

He said they had to take Jack out of some games because he was too tough for the other kids !!

Under 18's apparently !!!!

All good over here. Had shower and shave..... breakfast over and I am locked and loaded watching the pre-game and there is no Bereton.... life is pretty good at the moment.

Expect a tough tight game for a quarter/quarter and a half and then we will look to take charge. Petracca and Oliver to have big games in the midfield with Brown and Fritsch to have good games up forward.

 

Dees by 4 goals.

The Adelaide Oval is no MCG. My husband said the hot dogs are terrible.

I had no idea where we would be seated but thank God I’m in an all Dee area. Not a Crows supporter in sight of me.

Its not only a pain to play a home team but to do it on opening night is the double whammy.

Have become increasingly nervous as the day goes on. 

Win and we temporarily go top at 4-1. Lose and we’re in the middle of the pack at 3-2.

I've heard Grinter was even worse. I think he actually ended the odd career.

To our players: please avoid sending low balls to Petty.

To Petty: If a low ball comes your way, don't try to catch it with your hands. Use another part of your body to control it, resulting in a loose ball or a stoppage situation. You've had three lessons already, we need you to stay healthy.

Go Dees!

I watched 5 mins of channel 7 pre-game, and 10 minutes of Fox pre-game. I have been savagely reminded why I rarely watch any AFL pre-game on TV. Mind numbing, superficial, repetitive twaddle as an excuse for insight. Mute button on, browsing through YouTube and Facebook until I see the coin toss happen in the back ground. 

Just start the game for (insert expletive of choice here) sake!!

Troy Wilson was even worse than both of them without doing anything. Half a dozen blokes ended up with long term injuries colliding into him in his first season. Noting, he didn’t play for MFC, but was a legend.

And it was nice of Fritta telling Port fans after kicking the sealer it was time to go home.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    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
