    Mate think about all us mid 30s supporters who have not seen us do anything but suck for basically our entire life.

    I am genuinely in foreign territory here. 

    Enjoy splashing about in these uncharted waters. ?

    Yep my kids are hoping like hell we get up tomorrow so they can go to school on Monday and proudly let everyone know the Demons are top of the ladder

    I hope your kids enjoy letting their classmates know exactly who is on top of the ladder. ❤️?

    We're top of the ladder undefeated, won (finally) at a graveyard location against a team that has had our measure for years.

    Why do I feel so flat?

    Lots of uncertainty about our backline all of a sudden, and Brown didn't fit all that well into our forward line if I'm honest.

    I reckon a lot of us are almost willing that first loss for the season to happen. To get it outta the way. It’s a human thing.

  4. Yeah, so like I was saying, I’ve been backing AGAINST us for the last few years and I’m thrilled to announce to all and sundry, this year...

    I STILL HAVEN’T WON A SINGLE CENT!!!!

    Poor, yes. But OH SO HAPPY!

    ❤️?❤️?❤️?

  5. In keeping with the theme of famous quotes, here’s my offering:

    “The snozzberries taste like snozzberries.” - Willy Wonka 

    My point is, motivational quotes are great ‘n’ all, but at the end of the day it’s actions and not words that win games. 
    GO THE MIGHTY DEEEEEZ 

    ❤️?❤️?
     

    incidentally, want your innocent childhood shattered in one fell swoop? Then look up Roald Dahl’s definition of snozzberries. 
    I sincerely apologise in advance.

    Doesn't matter, top of the ladder at round 7 means nothing

    Agreed, it’s not everything. But it’s also not nothing. At the very least it will serve as a confidence boost for the players. And for all those little kids, the mini Dees fans, who’ve seen no joy, top of the ladder would mean the world imo.

    Mean 0.2222, standard deviation 19.27. So values "should be" within 39 for and 38 against. Chances of 43 against, or worse, is a touch over 1%. So, suffer in your jocks, Tiges!

    Am I the only one who didn’t understand a single word of this, bar the last line? ?

    I'm a Bayside-living, charcuterie-plate eating, Pinot-drinking, ski-loving Demon fanatic!

    I’m the complete opposite type of Demon fanatic. I don’t own a car, let alone a Range Rover; I only know what a charcuterie plate is coz I saw it on the Hans ad. on TV; and as for snow, the closest I would ever get to seeing white powder is if I’m walking down the main street of St. Albans and the meth-head in front of me falls over and the baggie of ice in his pocket comes tumbling out onto the footpath. (This actually happened.)

  9. At the local shopping centre and I just spotted an old guy sporting a Dees baseball cap that was so brand spanking new he may as well have left the label on it. I see this guy all the time and never knew he was a fan. In my neck of the woods Dees supporters are few and far between; ones who show their colours, anyways. It made me think about a tweet I read after Richmond won the grannie in 2017. It read along the lines of Now you’ll see only two types of Richmond regalia: Brand new gear or 32yo gear that reeks of mothballs. So I’m sure we have to expect a barrage of this type of discourse should we go all the way. Incidentally, the newest MFC merch I own is a guernsey I won in a competition two weeks ago. And not a single item of the sh*t-tonne of stuff I’ve amassed over the years smells of mothballs. Brave is the person who even entertains the idea of labelling me a bandwagonner. ?

    I think I said last week that I felt like I was watching some else team. The Dees don't do this. This morning I woke up and my first thought was did I dream we won? Immediately grabbed my phone to ensure it was real. strange situation we find ourselves in PSD.

    So heartening to hear this from fans who obvs know the Dees inside and out. Thank you guys ❤️?

    That was the headline on the back of The Herald- Sun.  Will this crack at us ever die?

    Probs not. But it could be worse: we could be devoted to a club that’s synonymous with missing teeth. 
    Or with a drug-fueled premiership. Talking to you, Eagles.
