This week, we learn that Tommy Bugg is not the clutch goalkicker Deeluded claimed he was, and commence the annual 'development year' conversation. Special guests are Deeluded stalwarts (and financial members of the Melbourne Football Club) Louis and James Robertson.
The Dees pull off an implausible win, and everything's good with the world. This week, Nita's back on the bandwagon and Kiran eats some Tommy Bugg flavoured humble pie.
After yet another devastating loss, changes had to be made at Deeluded. This week, Nita is replaced by a voice of measured optimism, Louis Robertson.

Nita returns from suspension, but the Dees lose again. We tackle the existential question: why are we Melbourne fans again?
From the ashes of the devastating loss to Fremantle, Deeluded unearths a new star - James Robertson. Plus the inside scoop on why Melbourne will beat Richmond.
