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!!!

    Track gallops at 6am followed by the boys training and maybe a beer with lunch at the social club.

    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?

    • POSTGAME: Sydney

      The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

    • CASEY: Northern Bullants

      The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.

    • GAMEDAY: Sydney

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?

    • NON-MFC: Round 11

      Round 11, the second week of The Sir Doug Nicholls Round, kicks off on Thursday night with the Cats hosting the Bulldogs at Kardinia Park. Geelong will be looking to to continue their decade long dominance over the Bulldogs, while the Dogs aim to take another big scalp as they surge up the ladder. On Friday night it's he Dreamtime at the 'G clash between Essendon and Richmond. The Bombers will want to avoid another embarrassing performance against a lowly side whilst the Tigers will be keen to avenge a disappointing loss to the Kangaroos. Saturday footy kicks off as the Blues face the Giants in a pivotal clash for both clubs. Carlton need to turn around their up and down season while GWS will be eager to bounce back and reassert themselves as a September threat. At twilight sees the Hawks taking on the Lions at the G. Hawthorn need to cement themselves in the Top 4 but they’ll need to be at their best to challenge a Brisbane side eager to respond after last week’s crushing loss to the Dees on their home turf. The first of the Saturday night double headers opens with North Melbourne up against the high-flying Magpies. The Roos will need a near-perfect performance to trouble a Collingwood side sitting atop the ladder.
