Should be compulsory viewing for all members ! Even an old cynic like me has had an enthusiasm revival. Tell all your depressed Dee mates to watch it !

Adem Yze - Tanking twitter comment - not confirmed his twitter.
dee-eee replied to PeterJames's topic in Melbourne Demons
What a lot of ignorant comments ! EVERY lowly team "list manages" late in the season for early draft picks. Only Demetriou and K.B. dont believe this. Players are NOT instructed to stop trying as shown by the classic Jordan McMahon last shot of the match to defeat us. Sacked Carlton assistant coach,Tony Liberatore, spilled the beans concerning the "Kreuzer Cup" match using as an example the non matching up on TJ when he had a ridiculous number of possessions in his last game for us. -
........and of every past/passed player WHO GAVE HIS ALL for the red and the blue !!!
-
Bails is lucky Jimmy didnt do a Joe Gutnick and announce at half time to the media that Todd Viney would be caretaker coach for the rest of the season! The morale of members and sponsors is on the line !
-
If he chooses lifetime financial security over an uncertain football journey with his current mates who could blame him for leaving. Sure , he is a super fit ball magnet with exceptional hand-eye coordination but his field kicking is barely acceptable and 40 metres would see him out for distance.If he goes,and we do a couple of successful Brock McLean-type deals through draft concessions,I for one wont be too disappointed with his departure.
-
I dont need too read this, particularly as he describes himself in his 2009 draftee's profile as a "passionate Melbourne supporter"! It WOULD be news if we could do a deal with the Tiges to reunite the Grimes brothers (us) and the Morton brothers (them) !

Do i need a new tv or to attend Coles & Garrard or did we REALLY play in DARK PINK ? !
-
I remember when we had a terrific winning record in the early years of the then Colonial Stadium, second only to home tenant Essendon.........daylight third ! I am sure one of our stats gurus could confirm this.
-
On "Bumps & Bruises", Beamer must think he is addressing the family pooch. Every response gets rewarded with " GOOD BOY "!
-
Gee , Wallsie had a bit of a crack at us on ONE WEEK at a TIME saying we have been the greatest celebrators for 30 years ! Ok it might have been a bit excessive after the Dons game but i suspect as a self confessed football punter he may be whingeing through his pocket !
-
LJ had the chances to kick a bag today but did little right. A spell with the Scorps seems in order.
-
So you've switched from the Tiges Tim Mathieson ?!
-
Wonderful news, a serious wrong.....RIGHTED !!!
-
Still on a high after our great win. Bumper turnout in the Members with tons of applause AND booing culminating in a hearty send-off to the avalanche of departing Dons supporters. A deeply satisfying night all round !
-
Brilliant start, Juice is playing the game of his life at FF but its decided he's the man to relieve Martin rather than say, Dunn. Suspect our attitude would have fallen away anyway but the move defied common sense.
-
Not a great Bater fan but i suspect he might have played a bit sore after a early hit. He at least contested very hard and i love the fact that we have 3 hard bodied forwards in Dunn,Petterd and Bate against North next week. They usually monster us but i'm confident Beamer,Tappy and co will show Firrito and the rest we mean business !

Caroline Wilson writes on alleged "tension" at the MFC
dee-eee replied to M_9's topic in Melbourne Demons
Do any of us as mere observers REALLY have the acumen to judge Bailey ? Talking to our interchanged young brigade at ground level could equally be inspired or plain out-dated coaching ! One would think if Jimmy and committee were thrilled with his performance he would have been snapped up already for at least another couple of years! -
Not greatly fussed but WHAT CLASH ? The yellow tops on the Suns' socks make them sufficiently different, particularly as most players seem to wear them down these days.
-
Yeah and it's a pity Nathan Carroll isn't still around for a few social tips ! Seriously, Watts needs a spell with Casey...might just regain some confidence/form. Petterd was stiff to be dropped and should come back in spite of an average performance with Casey. As for Newton, to me, his retention on the list was the puzzle of the decade.Stiff-legged Ben Holland types belong to another era .!
-
Will go the same way as the "Coca Cola Countdown " ! Robbo was the initial "Weekly Legend" and predictably told the indifferent crowd how much he loved playing in front of "you wonderful people"..........Aaaaaaaaargh !!!!!!
-
Saw a Geelong player wrench the ball out of his arms one day.......it was embarassing !

Aaron Davey holds ball up before kick in
dee-eee replied to dreamin' man's topic in Melbourne Demons
My thoughts exactly ! That's when the rot set in.....momentum gone, negativity takes over and scrappy football results. . Hawthorn gets a real sniff and goes into the break with renewed confidence. -
How many times in the last quarter on a quick rebound from a Hawthorn turnover would the ball land inside our 50 with a LONE forward opposed by two, three and once even FOUR defenders ! There's the coach standing as usual at ground level seemingly missing the bleeding obvious and not even wearing headphones for an alert from his assistants. Any chance of a little scoreboard respectability down the gurgler !
-
Never worn a jumper other than the prison-bar stripes eh ? The site footyjumpers.com discloses they played Swan Districts(WAFL) in a 1982 inter-club Escort Cup match in a all white jumper with black yoke. Only bothering to mention this because Eddie and co [censored] this myth to death and refuse to submit a REAL away strip and just tinker with stripe widths.

I feel even sorrier for Ange. He needs an empathy transplant !
