I love it. Great to see the fellas embrace the young indigenous players in the middle of the circle. There is some real spirit there, which I admit I was worried about after last week.

I know I am biased, but I still reckon it's the best song in the league.

Also love to see Jimmy in there, as well as his fantastic mark he took from the left boot of Miller, he hasn't lost it the big lad.

Really sells himself as a man of the people, honest and amongst it. He is changing the face of our club, and hopefully it's perception amongst potential members.

What did everyone else think of Bailey deciding not to join the circle.

Now i know he said why and i would understand that if it was a huddle of just the players involved in the game, but it looked like a circle of all melbourne people involved?

A win is always the best thing but to see ALL the player sing the club song, this even gave the 3AW jocks shivers. With this sort of gusto we need to bottle it 4ever!!!

Please Enjoy and turn your speakers up so the neighbours complain!!!

Bailey's explanation was fine. He wanted the player's to enjoy it.

Great song.

which player was it that said "GET THE WHOLE CLUB IN!!"

btw, also thought the enthusiasm from the crowd was exciting. clapping them off after half time and then also at the end. Also, loved it when the whole crowd chanted after the ricky petterd last quarter goal. I started a rendition of "It's a grand old flag" on the way out of gate 1, litterally just to sing on my own, but then everyone around me started to sing as well. Love moments like that.

There are some brilliant signs for the future in that clip. Most of our list are young kids and this is their team and their future. I reckon a lot of them love playing for this club (eg, Moloney, Jones etc) because they're all mates and they've been handed massive responsibility and opportunities very early in their careers. I expect we will have a very tight, solid leadership group for a long time and a bloody good culture too, which will be further enhanced by the likes of Stynes, Bailey, Schwab, Connolly, Mahoney, West and Wellman.

I haven't had this level of optimism for ages - it seems we needed to bottom out both on and off field - that we've done and I can see great signs for the future. Absolutely stoked about yesterday (except for Green's injury).

I was surrounded by Tigers fans all day. They were so damn smug before the game, and quickly kept quiet after the second quarter. I swear my eyes started welling up when i saw how excited the players were after the siren. They were so enthusiastic about running to the boundary to thanks the fans as well.

Great day. I forgot how good it felt to win!

Saw it on One Week at a Time - they showed in full HD too!

A most spirited and up-lifting moment. Pretty much the entire senior list was there, injured players in their suits, singing with gusto.

The way Moloney belted it out just shows how much that man bleeds for this club. I love him.

I'm not sure but I think it was Cameron Swab?

Ha I initially thought it was Stynes. But i can imagine CC saying it. What was pleasing was the sheer joy on their faces when walking into the rooms. Got to love Mclean and Moloneys enthusiasm when belting out the words. Very important for the likes of Bennell Jetta Meesen

i love what footy does to people. Was there on my own, not that you'd have known it! 'scarves out the window tonight!' from the gents under the scoreboard. 'go the dees! from the drunken richmond membership carrying corporates. 'What a win!' and high fives from the guy taking his two little girls to the game outside. Ended up pointing them to the meet the players afterwards, i hope they went!

I wish the MCG will put the volume up - I could barely hear the song :o

Totally agree, my friend and I were so disappointed, we could't even hear if the song had started, nor could we hear where it was up to or any of the words. It was shattering

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
