You can't be saying this if you were actually at the game.

Best feeling ever.

These are the games you remember for a long time and why you stick with a club through little thick and much thin

It was only Fremantle ;)

Fifty points down at the half way mark after six successive heavy losses; come on, don't be so mean spirited - we just got King Kong off our back. Even if Fremantle's scapl dangling from our belt doesn't excite you much, we did turn things around in the second half and play some direct, exhilarating footy. Enjoy the win.

You people do know I was only taking the [censored] out? I was at the game. Just for a bit of a chuckle. condemned seems to have been the only one who didn't take it personally.

Chill out guys ^_^

It's funny though, against any other club other than the Shockers, Melbourne wouldn't have won the game after that deplorable first half. That includes West Coast, Essendon or anyone at the moment. Fremantle is the only team that can produce a result like that.

Having said that, considering the circumstances, it was one of the all time great wins.

I'd have to agree. That's up there with one of the great wins (that i've seen at least)

If it was only Collingwood!!!

That would be better than sex!

Oh you aint doin it right....

Still, the old gal seemed full to the brim even though there was only 20k there. Imagine the noise if we could have had 50k?

Great Comeback YES

Great Win NO although it sure was good timing before the break

Some people on this forum simply look at one half of football

Great WINS come from playing 4 quarters of football not one half and that actually winning playing that way is VERY RARE

I dont consider playing a poor half of football irrespective of the result GREAT

Was it positive ? ABSOLUTLEY and will build confidence in future games but we will acheive greater forward progression playing 4 quarters competivley even if we LOSE the game

for all those MFC followers not supporters who could have been there and wernt,,,,, TUFF..... it was the greatest fealing after the game.

some positives came out of it, garland showing positive signs, straight at the ball, a bit of run off the back line. aussie no more needs to be said. but i will, great and dont you love the little frog dance after the goals. millar guess what hes a forward who would have guessed?

after the game i heard this crazy old woman going [censored] yelling,screaming and singing the GOF for the umteenth time, suprise it was my wife and i was carrying on like a bit of a loose arab myself.

friends you had to be there, you could feel the pride and pure joy deep down and you just had to let it out.

Cartainly was a fantastic win! I was wondering why i hadn't gone to the pub instead of going to the football at half time, but was very pleased after the siren. It really was an amazing game. There were older women ringing up the radio statiopns afterwards saying that they had been crying, i haven't heard of this since Buckanara broke every melbourne supporters hearts in '87.

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
