At Least I Saw a Flag

why do melbourne players fall over so often?

jones... captain's point

Umpires helping Eagles big time ...

2017 ... missed the finals with 12 wins. 2018 ... currently on 12 wins. If we lose the last 2 matches, same outcome. If we miss out again, has this been an improved performance? Or the same, or worse? Higher percentage, yes. Beating the teams we should beat? Yes, for the most part. However, not pulling off any great wins (unlike last year - WC/Perth, Crows/Adelaide) is a massive difference. I know we beat Crows in Adelaide this year, but they werent flying like Crows last year. So, my view is that if the team loses both games, it has gone backwards

I did too. And I feel ashamed

I've been a supporter since 1968. (And member for many years.) I can't imagine that the Club is attracting any/many kids to be Demons supporters other than offspring of existing supporters.

And Norf not to win both their remaining matches?

I think you mean lucked in.

I loved Robbie ... My son was a friend of one of his daughters. He met Robbie, went to his house. I'm so jealous. RIP great man.

No. My parents had zero interest in football. As a little kid, I had a beanie with the colours red and blue. (Not actually a Demons beanie.) I was asked whether i followed the Demons. The simplest response was to say yes.

I''ve been a Demons supporter since 1968. Of course the current regime isn't responsible for the years of failure. However younger posters should show some compassion towards us oldies who express disappointment/anger/frustration with inept/insipid/clueless performances. It does wear you down. One of my greatest fears is that MFC is not attracting kids. Other than the offspring of existing Demons supporters. How many kids who have a choice of any team would choose MFC? Why would they?

I think they also need to deal with between the ears issues.

yes

Agree about him squibbing that contest. It cost a goal. It may not have been obvious on TV. At the ground (which I was) it was very obvious that he made a deliberate decision not to make a contest . Imagine the outrage if it had been Jack Watts.

How many Caracellas are there?

You duffer ... as if he'd fit in a room !!!

Sadly I collected on my bet on the Swans I presume that I'll also collect on the bets I put on MFC missing the 8 in a few weeks. .

Was anyone really surprised with today's debacle? I certainly wasn't. I had money of the Swans. Money for old rope. I would rather have lost my money. Clueless, inept, heartless performance.

I hate the filth.

Yes, Whitten was also a thug. I heard Skilton laugh about how Whitten broke his nose. Yes, really funny. What a moron.

Are they still a couple?

Oh please God, make this happen

Huge match on the telly tonight .. Drug Cheats v saints ... Can't wait. The TV ratings will be huge.

I've already put money on missing the 8. $7 !! crazy odds considering our history, and hard run home.
