Our grand final posters
Itās pathetic that they still even mention those jokes. Weāve won the minor premiership and are favourites in the grand final. Theyāre redundant now. People are so used to Melbourne being the whipping boys, they canāt accept that its the direct opposite now. I wonder how long they went on about a Brisbane like this when they won their hat trick? Sad really

Our grand final posters
He told me that weg did several of each team before he died. That way they only need to add the year. If you look closely, he has tweaked that Demon. Heās made it a bit thinner, his forehead, made him darker red, etc. I donāt have any real problems with that, but if theyāre tweaking, why didnāt they make the last fork on the pitchfork the same size? It makes it less obvious what heās doing in the poster.

Often forgotten second verse
I am in NO way suggesting it returns at a permanent basis. But we should be able to hear it somewhere. Why write its lyrics in our site but never use them? Itās confusing

Our grand final posters
I canāt find the link to it but the 1988 was sensational. It was by far the best poster he did for us. Now that heās selling them and if by some chance we do lose, is he going to reuse it again if we make another one?

Often forgotten second verse
I have that and it doesnāt sing the second verse on mine

Often forgotten second verse
If we win the premiership, will they finally play the second verse of āItās a grand old flag ā Here it is for people who donāt know it: Oh, the team played fine in the year Thirty-Nine, We're the Demons that no one can lick, lick, lick And you'll find us there at the final bell With the spirit of Twenty-Six, Six, Six I was told it was revived for 2011. I was living in America at that time. Is that true? Does anyone have a recording of it? Iām not suggesting we bring it back permanently, but Iād like to hear it for curiosityās sake.

Retro gear
Too young to remember this, but fooryjumpers.com is wrong. Our logo actually debuted in 1976, not 1977. Gee look at it though. Who drew it? The eyes are mismatched, massive gap between eyes and nose, lines very crooked.. First, I thought it was childās drawing of out 1977 logo, but this was on our actual annual report. I guess they got a professional artist to do it again next year. Anyone knows who drew this?

The thing youāre most tired of hearing
I can guarantee if they played extra time, St Kilda would have one. Thatās two grand finals theyāve won on the benefit of now non-existent rules (drawn games.)

Earthquake...a bad omen
That night Shane Woewodin narrowly beat Scott West. If anything thatās a good sign

Our grand final posters
Itās pretty good, but I liked the Harv time better. Oh well I guess that looked too much the the lead character in āAaagh! It's the Mr. Hell Showā Our very first Mark Knight poster.

The thing youāre most tired of hearing
Thatās what I thought in 2006. 5 years later I was tired of hearing āitās a rebuild season.ā

What would a premiership mean to you?
I know itās too late, but a mate of mine told me the best way to prevent that was to keep the bottle upside down. That way the cork keeps wet, doesnāt crack and let air in.

The thing youāre most tired of hearing
When you say youāre a Melbourne supporter. Mine would have to be: āwhen was the last time Melbourne won the premiership?ā Saturday can change that

What they're saying at Whitten Oval.
Did anyone else see the [censored] on Sportsbet page? Even my brother whoās getting one if we win isnāt this stupid

What would a premiership mean to you?
My dads like that with me still. I donāt know how old I have to be to get him to understand that that ship has already sailed

GRAND FINAL: Melbourne vs Western Bulldogs
Felt a bit crook yesterday. The doctor told me one of the thing I need to do is cut down on stress. Now thatās an impossibility

Families of Demons who died too young say their hearts still beat true.
My mother was a demon supporter before she died. She would have loved it. My uncle definitely wonāt see next grand final. I feel for them. Especially Robbie. He was the last demon I saw as a demon through and through. Barracked for the team all his life. Kept trying to play for our club and our club only, despite numerous rejections. Refused many offers to leave and have success with other clubs. The mans loyalty and love for this club was matched by none. He was a demon through and through.

Weāre missing it - a place to vent
Being a GA member, Iām not guaranteed a ticket even if we make it. It doesnāt feel right not being at the MCG, but Iād take a premiership anyway I can

What would a premiership mean to you?
There is way too much at stake for a close game. Iām looking forward to being so far in front my dad, uncle and me can open the whiskey at the third quarter, lay back and throughly enjoy what is a certain premiership Next year can be the close one. Thereās too much pressure on needing to win this one. The one thing I am SO tired of hearing is āwhen have Melbourne last won a premiership?ā We win and thatās the last time we hear that

1964 and all that ...
Hereās footage of the game that saved us Hawthorn vs Melbourne. I find it sad that this footage is in better condition that the grand final one
