Fork 'em

Malthouse was glowing in his assessment of Neelds talent to Lyon and co. because he was busy trying to burn down his own club after being shafted by Eddie for Buckley.

Only 12 ...... More like 50. We've been garbage for as long as I remember. And even when we were good in the late 80' and early 2000's we were still garbage. And Hawthorn supporters have lived a charmed existence since the early 70s. Dunno what the under 25yrs old stuff is about.

Jim stepped in when we needed him most and then got very crook. The End.

Never doubted him for a second. Gonna be a weapon off half back.

100%. Seen us in 2 GFs and watched us get humiliated in both. Did not give a yelp.

Brilliant. Got ahhh ....... Itchy eyes here myself after watching that. Also noted the size and youth of the young fella. Hope he plays.

One hand operates the keyboard. The other does something else.

Dawks have the power to get the Burgones, Gibsons, Frawleys, Mitchells and Omearas nominating them as their club of choice. We have to settle for the retirement plans of Dawes, Clarkes, Black Princes, Vinces and Lewis. Even now they reckon Clarkson is chasing Gold Coasts Lynch ...... Very hard. Watch this space.

Pretty sure Roosys missus was giving them all cuddles early in his tenure. Probably due for some more considering pre-season boot camps are out of the question.

Wallace is a flogga. No surprises that you love him. Birds of a feather and all that.

Most of the journos don't bother watching our games but they'll look at our stats before pumping us up in their clueless articles. But we've made humiliating capitulations an artform over the years so I'm expecting more of the same.

I remember him being caught in the mud at Moorabin once. Notable 'cause I saw never anyone get him before. Also missed 50odd games through injury which wrecked a couple brownlows for him. Remember he got second or 3rd one year after missing 6 games.

Yep , a tease. Doesn't have the speed or tank to be a real influence.

We don't have 1. Not 1. Can list a bunch that go straight into their holes when the heat comes on though.

Forever down ya mean. And how's supporting from France going? I'll bet heaps of frogs are into you about the Dees when ya turn up for work. Seriously.

I took them to both the Richmond and Collingwood games this year. I really only went to boost the numbers for our marque games and also so the kids could experience a couple big crowd for our games. Anyway, I asked the young bloke what he thought "when the crowd gets loud." "Yeah, but its always the other teams." Just breaks my heart.

My grandfather barracked for the swans and grandmother barracked for "Jezza." I asked dad years ago how he ended up supporting Melbourne considering his father was the swans. "Ahhh , the swans just weren't me and so I went with Uncle Viv and followed the Demons." Seemed reasonable to me at the time but as years went by it dawned on me that dad was born in 1947. Which would have made him 8years old when the demons started their rampage and he had jumped on the premiers. So thanks dad, for hanging this albatross around my neck.

C'mon man. Pain and humiliation not enough?

One of my kids came home from school around mid season and said "Jett barracks for the Demons now." I asked why and and he told her that the Cats "Disappointed him." I laughed 'cause I knew Jett (who's about 11) wasn't gonna last long with us then. Sadly, like my father the bandwagoner, I've brainwashed my kids who now only show a passing interest to amuse me. And you know another disturbing fact. Even though I take them to at least one game a year and sometimes 2 we haven't seen a win since Bailey was coach. Picked all the melbourne based "easy" games and yet we manage to stink it up every time. Makes it a long 700k round trip. Just disgusts me.

Like continually bombing the ball inside 50 with our eyes shut like morons.

Hutchy is full of sheet. Was all over us last year. Was continually telling them he was "Bullish" about the Demons when arguing with Lloyd.

Not like we haven't done it before. Made it a speciality during the "up" years under Daniher.

masochist noun a person who is gratified by pain, degradation, etc., that is self-imposed or imposed by others.

An insult to call our supporter base feeble. Simple maybe, but feeble .... Hell no. No other club supporters have put up with more putrid garbage than us. And it's the the simple ones that clap along happily.

The club culture is a disgrace. I don't know what it is, but there is something rotten down there and it's deeply ingrained. I just find the club an embarrassment these days.
