  1. As mentioned in a earlier post by Jaded No More that he lives / lived with both Jackson and Bedford (one gone and the other looking to go) wouldn’t help one iota! Hope this gets sorted sooner rather than later for two reasons. a) team stability for 2023. b) I don’t think I could handle another year of ‘will he, wont he’ like what happened with Jackson this year!

    Hmmm, be a nice kind of irony if the next time we play the Ferals, we win with Grundy playing for us🤞

    Just listening to the Neal Daniher audio book where he mentioned the importance of the club, that being the board, football department and players all being aligned, plus an element of good luck to have any chance of success. To me (as an outsider) it appears that they are, therefore I live in hope that we once again will be serious contenders in 2023. Getting the fans on board would be an absolute bonus, but I am painfully aware of just how prevalent and imbedded the MFCSS is……but I still live in hope.

    I love it. Right now at the very least, we are contenders. For the best part of the past 6 decades I could not put my hand on my heart and say that we were a realistic chance. Right now I can! As the season progresses I hope I can up the ante (like in 2021) and with hand on heart say that we are ‘serious contenders’. 🤞

    Gearing up to learn to like Grundy. To be honest, it won’t be that hard to do. But please, never ever do I want Ginnivan’s name associated with us. Ps- I’m not trying to start a new rumour or anything like that, he just really irks me, that all.

    Hope Hird gets the Essendrug gig. Good for two reasons, first being it makes it easier to love to hate them that much more and…we get to keep Yze
  7. Yep, select a fact that can when taken in isolation can be used to distort the truth. This then ends up as being an alternative persuasive point of view or truth. He is an absolute expert at doing this. Worse still, people believe! Makes me wonder about Geoff Kennet’s clothing choice comments- when isolated can easily be excused for something you would expect from the older generation, nothing more, nothing less. No offence intended at all. When taken in context of what this thread is all about, as I said above, makes me wonder.
  8. When I saw the headline in eff head Bolt’s column in the Feral Hun I made a point not to read any of his comments. He specialises in distorting information. At best, I used to go to the back pages and read the sports section. Don’t even do that anymore. It is not a newspaper, it is a Murdoch tabloid that is full of extremist views, positions and full of misinformation (Trump, politics, climate change denial etc etc). And finally….we’ll done Daisy
  9. Exactly

    I’m pretty sure nobody has ever won (the GF) outside the top 8 before! 😉- … but I do like your sentiments about the Ferals.

    Totally agree. It’s football and it’s tribal. So… thanks Jacko for being part of it in 2021. Hope you enjoy going home and I hope you don’t snag another flag and we of course do. Pretty simple, you are now the enemy.

    Out - Hunted In - Hunters Big year coming up

    And after this post I’m signing off until next year. Make no mistake, I was gutted by the last two finals results and frustrated by most of the year. I reckon I only saw about three games where we played to the standard I’d expect of us. Don’t ask me why but I still back the players , coaches and support staff, in fact the whole club. I have high hopes and expectations for next year. Bring it on.

    Not an excuse but…….. had we kicked straight and actually got goals rather than behinds. Not only in this game but quite a few others. (Our first quarter domination in last night’s game was not reflected on the scoreboard, and boy did we pay the price for this later on. Shame really)

    There is a silver lining…. at least we no longer have to deal with Ticketek
  17. Latest forecast says a shower around 6 pm and that’s it for the night!
  18. You serious! (and I’m retired) I’m a republican but would have gladly celebrated the birthday of the Queen’s second cousin twice removed- if they had granted a holiday for it
  19. To be honest, it’s going to be hard not to
  20. Weather wise things looking good. Only one forecast, Access G3 (which draws data from BOM and unfortunately tends to be the most accurate) predicts a small shower (0.2mm) at around 8pm. So no excuses, rock up and be very loud!
  21. Agree, one game at a time
  22. Wodja replied to Demonland's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Exactly. I am truly dreading what level the ‘veil of negativity’ may possibly reach when we line up for the preliminary final next week. I’m nerrrrvous and excited about tomorrow’s game. Let’s go DEES!!!

    I hate Ticketek almost as much as I hate the Feral Football Club!!!!!
  25. Wodja replied to Ollie fan's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Totally agree. The weather app I use (that draws on BOM data but in my opinion gives more realistic hourly predictions on whether there’ll be showers) now says it won’t be showers happening during the game.🤞 In the last couple of games we had at the G it predicted this correctly (whilst BOM was saying there would be showers) Either way rock up and be loud. Worst case scenario- rain is only falling water!
