I can't help but think someone on DL is the parent of this charming young person.

Anyway I would like to nominate them as Mother/Father of the year, they have clearly done an OUTSTANDING job. I am planning on upping my game as a result.

To this child, (free from MFCSS) I wish you future happiness and a life completely different from my childhood in the 70s/80s. (It moves me to think that this child has only been alive while Melbourne has been good...)

This young man is proof that MFCSS is not in fact carried in the blood or through some evil voodoo curse from beyond the grave.

It is instead developed as a Pavlovian response to repeated negative stimuli. If it can be contracted, it can be cured - and we must find the cure and ease the suffering of those unfortunates afflicted with it.

It may seem cruel but I think the answer involves frontal lobe lobotomy; however as this treatment is deemed "unethical" by the general public, I propose winning more flags as an alternative solution; evidence is promising in this area, as a recent study conducted in 2021 concluded that premierships seem to provide short term partial reduction in the severity of the condition.

Further study required.

“Actually, Maxy Gawn and Petracca.”

Eddie is the cutest and his parents should be proud.

On the subject of kidlets, it seems hubbing with the families in Adelaide worked wonders for our team, as evidenced by the eight points that came home on the plane. 🥳

I don’t know whose child Leb was holding while singing the song after Thursday’s match, but talk about one big happy family!

He may well already be a member. My future granddaughter will be a member on the day she’s born. I’d sign her up sooner only her D.O.B. is yet to be known. ❤️💙

As an ethical alternative, I've always found a bottle in front of me to be better than a frontal lobotomy.

Check with the club, you used to be able to sign them up before birth.

My 14-year old daughter turns 15 in a week's time; 16-year member.

Both my daughters are equally as positive as this fine young child when it comes to the MFC.

Then again, they are both well aware they will be living on the streets, should either of them choose to stray from the club that was chosen for them.

Thought this was going to be a thread about how one finds time to get to the football whilst balancing one's parental obligations.

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was

    UNDER THE PUMP by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons have been left languishing near the bottom of the VFL table after suffering a 32-point defeat at the hands of stand alone club Williamstown at Casey Fields on Sunday. The Demons suffered a major setback before the game even started when AFL listed players Ben Brown, Marty Hore and Josh Schache were withdrawn from the selected side. Only Schache was confirmed as an injury replacement, the other two held over as possible injury replacements for Melbourne’s Thursday night fixt
