The Hawks lyrics, is one of the most uniting and driving set of lyrics going around; & I have no doubt that when self doubt arises amongst them... It helps them to stay positive and fight on as a united team. It relaters in the 'present tense', so is always relevant to the current group. I love our Tune...... but Our lyrics are about different times, different values. About a club, a flag, an emblem, and our past. (things) (almost possessions). But not much about the players as a group, having a red hot go, and, the teams fight... fun... and love for club & one another. (spiritually). ... we need to write our own contemporary Story. A dare... play this video with mute on,,, and read the words as they appear,, with no sound. ... then replay with sound on. .

WaddaWe Sing... ??? hows this, 'sons' ?

Traditions are built on ideas. Good traditions are built on the back of accepted Great Ideas. Should we all just continue to smoke ? Should we all remain standing at the back of the cue when waiting for the train or bus. .. and miss our spot altogether ? sounds Melbourne/Mcc. Times change, and so do people's thoughts, ideas, & values, as we all cross examine our past and its thinking,,, as we grow. Its time we shed our old bark, and grow another growth ring as we put on New Growth. We've been 'dormant', in a self-imposed 'Winter'... for far too long. .

Over in the Ponsford... 'Ere go Jim... If your lucky, she-mite sit right in front of you. nibble away, while you watch ! bon appétit ?

I have 'never' believed.... In NEVER !!!

LoL.. thanks Daryl.

I suppose it 'did', 'MR'. 'Mary-Anne' was around my speed, as well... GinGer was just, a bit too 'spicy',,, for li'lle ol' me.

He has to come across as measured,,, because he'll be castigated either way. Also, if he wants his players to be "composed"... then he has to show the same example.

paywalls... and the state of the globalisation. And the frustration of how business is undoing all the good things of the recent past, for mere margins & share price gains. The antichrist is hard at work, and It's pulling things apart as we live ur lives under more and more stress, due to 'It'.

LoL... ummhh, Chris from Camberwell.. HaHa. I've heard 'CfromC' speak on radio, a couple years ago. i'm very afraid to say, I'm nothing like him.. I'm probably more a cross between 'Skipper' on Gilligan's Isle,,, and the 'Professor' on the Isle... now, where did I put that darn Cap down..

What a pleasure it is, that I have detoxed from reading the H/Sun. Just in the 'nick of time', since the Far-Out Right are taking over around the globe, controlling 'All and Sundy' In the absence of real church leadership, for the people,,, the antichrist of commercialism is showing its ugly face, & is taking over. ... wanting everything, to sell for money and power (greed),,, and not pay taxes at the same time. - - - - - Bless you Gough, rip. . Who's the driver ? It has to be one of two I guess ?

Hi 'jcb31'. Tim Smith and Mykelti Lefau, with cameos P/Qtr from Pedo.

Happy Fathers Day 'Dm's56'...

Congratulations should go to the supporters, for taking the time to attend... in big numbers, creating the atmosphere. And thanks to the Army and Admin for organising and putting all this together, for the supporters, and the club. This is how it would read if the supporters were being thought about first to last, and not about the money and atmosphere just for the players. _________________________ Its the supporters who want to go to represent the club and to watch their hrero's. That's what supporters do. That's giving. It's the clubs job to think of how they can give back to the supporters; and a part of that is to put the best team on the park they can, to represent the Red&Blue. This is the synchronicity of footy and of sport... Giving and taking equally, to each other. The game of Aussie-Rules is played at lower levels, exactly for the reasons you mention... but NOT AFL Pro level footy. No I did NOT say that about myself, not even in the slightest. As I was not there in attendance, and could not be; I am only there in spirit. I say it for all other Demon supporters, past, present and future... and in so doing, for the very Mfc club, itself. When you have something to sell to some people... they are the most important part of that transaction. and IF they are to invest in the sell able item. They are to be satisfied. So they are happy with the product and want more. Its not about me; me of today;;; Me of the past, maybe, I did wish for more, back then. But I don't know IF I would even be at a Melbourne Grand Final nowadays but you can betcha I would be watching and recording it for my future to view again, and again. I would be as happy as any... if we won, and I would be somewhat satisfied that we have broken thru, after all our amateurish ways & days. Its all I hope for from Footy. Apart from this club growing up, and leaving this elitist dream go down the toilet, where it should be. Clubs are not about Sects. Clubs are for people, and in Australia, it should be for all and any people. Irrelevant of colour,,, cred,,, or wealth... and certainly no snobbery_ Everything I do on footy forums, is built around being for this Club, and for Footy. And for the supporters of this once great club. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - big picture items. We are ALL pawns in life. All living things are but temporary, and so are pawns within Life-Itself. The only problem is people, some people think, or want to believe they are more worthy, more smart, more relevant. And that's where it all starts to come unstuck. The Colosseum, have you noticed how rough around the edges it has become, over the past millennia? somewhat dee-cayed... oh, & there is a rank smell, deep down in the depths below. Maybe some of the original participants and patrons of the time,,, before it all ended in craapp . Lets not let Melbourne Demons go the same way, of the same arrogance, and Footy, likewise. .

I agree on Levers knee, his 2nd Reco on that knee. But I'm concerned because it went so innocuously.

Since Frosty has taken the next step, this back-end of the season, I don't think we need May so much now.

giving his best impressions to his supporters... leading his supporters with example. he's been watching Bo Bo again.

I don't think we've had direct replacement opportunities for Oscar, until mid this season. I think 2019_ will be different, now that Frosty has found his way around our gamestyle. he's arrived it seems... so with this, Lever hopefully trouble free in 2019,,, we will have the direct replacement depth needed.

oh, such intolerance. why i'm shocked.... you find it so easy to try to insult: but yet, are so pedantic at the one time... no questioning values, these days.

Why can't we have both? za litta girl,,, how much for za litta girl... all of them. I want to buy your women. how much ? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GDXYzUlv0S8

Nice one ding. Love your work.

I forgot all about Vanders. Does he have 'the focus', to keep it tight on that slippery eel ?

I think on the match-ups, > I think Frost to Menzel. Jones to Selwood. I'd like to see Viney, if he can run out the game, go to Ablett... and spook him, as you say... when Ablett is around the middle. - not up forward. Harmes to take on Danger, when around the mid part of the ground. Play him close, and make him love you Harmes'y. . Would Joel Smith play as a defensive forward, minding Blicavs, and hurt him our way. Harry Taylor? another possibility for Joel Smith, as a run with role? Fritsch, or JWagner both possibilities for Kelly? .

Luv that little pocket rocket.. . he's a good thing.

he's been very good, the last few weeks. a good addition.
