Haha but I think you get the bends rising, not going down. Luv the message though.

Yeah I left out the coming up bit, which I shouldn’t have since I came up as quickly as possible.

    Im excited about watching my team rise and succeed again. I have been through many dark days as a dees supporter, and it feels somewhat familiar to be where we are. The lower the low, the higher the high!

    I get excited with anticipation all pre season thinking of the possibilities of what may happen. It is all good, we haven’t lost any games (neither has anyone else)

    Each game day I also get excited. The possibility of what may happen……then unfortunately about 10 minutes into the games of late, the excitement finishes. Sad but true.

    But then there is always the next game, the next season.

    Except for one or two years, sadly this is how it has been for me for over half a century.😞

    One or two years?! Umm, we've made 3 grand finals and appeared in 16 final series in that half-century. I hope you're not being literal. If you can't even raise a smile for a year we're in the Granny for your own sake you probably should find a new interest.

    No I wasn’t being literal but I’m not sure how old you are but it’s a bit rich for you to suggest that I should find a new interest.

    But just to rub it in, at least I was there to watch us win the last one. Be a bit rich of me to suggest that if you didn’t make it over to WA you perhaps weren’t trying hard enough, so I won’t😉

    I did say IF. Most years there are highlights and usually a finals year is satisfactory. Anyway, peace out, I wasn't trying to get personal.

    To be fair though, you can’t get any higher than what we did.

    About as big of a lifetime goal I have, and I got to tick it off.

    Just imagine shudder if Bulldogs had got the next goal or two and we had lost that GF and everything ever since was the same. Admittedly itd be so much easier now to ditch Goodwin. But I'm sure most Melbourne supporters, including me, would be so much angrier and despondent now.

    Yeah but that didn’t happen. Instead, we won #13.

    No point dealing in hypotheticals, they don’t change the past. But our actions (or inactions), can very well determine our future.

    Perhaps. But isn't almost every one is thinking about every possible scenario , good or bad, for the Dees for the rest of the year? Even just with neutral games this weekend expectations kind of just jump into my head of what will happen.

    … a debut. A debut of anyone in red and blue, regardless of who he/she is. In this case it’s Tommy Fullarton and we all need to get behind him and have faith in him.

    GO OUT THERE AND GIVE ‘EM HELL, CREAM!!!

    The return of Steven Smith. He once took a hit for the team, hopefully he will show all demon supporters how you can get back up again.

    This club has me excited for the NBA playoffs and the new NFL season!!!

    Looking forward to watching Caitlyn Clarke tear all those jealous ghetto horsehair wig wearers to bits myself.
    She's a Hoopastar.

    As for us I've got nothing but a foreboding sense of .... Doom.
    But I really like the look of Langford.
    Hope Goodwin doesn't ruin him.

    Goody appears to be making some very strange calls this year, but, going forward, if he does somehow manage to turn our fortunes around, then I’m certainly excited at the prospect of seeing that happen. Who wouldn’t be?

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      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?

    • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

      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?
