Must admit I've been to more games than usual due to the Hulkster,he good for the club all round.

Watching Mick go full retard in the coaches box was one of my favorite forms of entertainment,now I'm going to have to find something else to do on Friday nights.

Goodbye Dawes.

44 and 45 looked like Abbott and Costello just before the siren.Should have been a goal there.

I was thinking Alby Mangels

Don't know how the fark we are in front but I'll take it.

Looks like we're playing in slow motion.

Hulkster

Just couldn't bring myself to go to the game today after sitting through the entire massacre last week,but I will be watching the game on Fox.I hope by the end of the game I will be regretting not going in to watch a Demons victory.

He could always be dropped to the MFC legal team.

Keeping my head up after sitting through the whole game last Saturday at the MCG,not focusing on the doom and gloom.But I shall be supporting the Dees from the couch this weekend,paying money to go see them would feel like spoiling a misbehaving kid.

Out: me In: empty seat

Although I'm not a Watts fan,I'd take him over VFL players like M.Jones and Bail any day of the week.

The last few weeks feel like going back in time,the line up looks more and more like the Neeld team each week,so does the scoreboard,so does the supporters sanity.

Didn't Obi Wan and Yoda say something similar when Luke went off to face Darth Vader?

Victory breed emnity, The defeated one sleeps poorly, The peaceful one sleeps easy having given up victory and defeat. The Buddha. As probably the only Melbourne supporter to have meditated for 6 hours yesterday and left a Buddhist monastery this morning to go to the MCG,I used the quote above to keep myself peaceful,just thought I'd offer it here for an substitute for drugs,alcohol,punching holes through walls,burning down the MFC,player witch hunts ect.

Will sing "la la la la lumumba" all the way the Richmond station.

Will be going to the game with a Hawks supporter friend,will most likely be sitting amongst the Hawks supporters,most likely be watching the Hawks beating us,but will be doing my part as a Demons supporter cheering,willing and hoping.

His rate of improvement is amazing,where I'll agree he still makes a lot of mistakes and his kicking needs to improve.,he has come a long way already in a short amount of time and will continue to get better week after week.

Maybe Dawes can represent him at his next appearance.

Purple must have got a big... no I mean a little stiffy when he heard this news this morning.

I was reading an article on the MFC website about the meditation the players do before each game with T Mac saying how much it has helped him.You can tell by watching him this year he is in the zone,even during the bad games he keeps performing,something for all us supporters to be positive about.

After watching Casey today I don't want to think about the depths of our shallowness.

Where there is obvious issues of skill levels and fitness,its not hard to see there are big mental issues as well.It seems some of the players from the Bailey/Neeld eras are permantly mentally scarred.It's not possible to win without a belief that you can win and until we have that attitude against the top teams we will not be a force.This probably applies to all departments in the club and the supporters too but it makes it hard for us to believe when we sit there and watch efforts like tonight.The players have to give us a reason to believe.My advice would be to get every player to read The Art of War by Sun Tzu and apply it to football.

Just got home from the game after a long train ride,shall try and keep things positive: T Mac Hogan Seeing Stretch's first goal I got a pink torch
