I'm going to miss the goal of the year and mark of the year contenders.

They're trying to sneak into the top 4. I doubt they'll be slacking off this time. Still, we should be able to shut Fev down, and they don't have much else up forward...

On a mac, they don't let you view. I'm hoping more generous posters are into youtube.

Ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to the Dees we'll come to know in the next 5 years. What a clinic. The score is backwards.

I realise there's no opposition out there, but the manner in which we've played is the pleasing part.

What a game by the boys!!! Jurrah just continues to do things that only Jurrah can, what a goal (and a great speccie by Robbo too).

As for the umpires, they were absolutely shocking, particularly #22.

Just before the bounce it was wet, cold and windy. But after half time it was actually very nice. Sunny and warm with little breeze to speak of. As for the crowd, 13,004 is a very weak effort, even given the weather this morning. It was a game in which everyone knew Melbourne could, should and wanted to win. For those that did turn up, we were well rewarded with probably our best football of the year, minus the start.

For those who didn't rock up, where they could have, or because the weather was not right, for shame. What today revealed was that there are very few true loyal Melbourne supporters that stick with the club no matter what.

Everyone played their part today, even Paul Johnson. A great day in which all 4 seasons where on display as well as the future of our club. It revealed who should really be wooden spooners, but we will take picks 1&2, thank you very much Mr Demetriou.

Works fine for me on my mac (??)

Don't worry, Bails knows what he's doing. We ain't gonna beat St.Kilda and Carlton should be desperate to get into the top 4.


THAT WAS BEAUTIFUL! :D

I know I know, no opposition, but there were some genuinely great ball movements and the more we grew in confidence the better we played, which was good to see.

I'm a big tanking fan, and I want us to lose the next two (which we will easily), but it was great for the boys to have one really huge victory this season to enjoy until next year.

Oh and Liam Jurrah is a freak of nature. He turns [censored] into gold.

Mark Harvey's press conference was pretty pathetic too - gave no credit to melbourne whatsoever.

Just thought that was a bit weak from him.

100% spot on. I loved it there today - after being in two minds the last two weeks it was nice to just get out there and barrack for a win. Such a shame that only 13,003 other people got out there. Sitting in the MCC members I got the chance to speak briefly to Matty Whelan and Paul Wheatley, as well as Cam Bruce, Big Jimma, R.D. Barassi and Don McLardy!! Such approachable people and genuinely interested in their supporters!!

Go you mighty Demons!!!

Are KB and Maher laughing at the Dockers and accusing them of tanking?

Of course Freo are tanking,they want Morabito with pick 3,if they beat us they'd move above the Tiges.

They stuffed up with Daniel Rich and they won't let Morabito go.

Freo didn't tag any of our mids,Valenti had 30 disposals FFS!!!

Pavlich played a lot of the game in the midfield,don't want him kicking goals today!!!

Freo knew Davey would carve up Schammer!!!

Tank and pick up Morabito,you'd be derelict not to!!!

Do you really think we could beat any team by 10 goals with only 26 fit players to pick from!!!

Edited by Jack7

Wonder who the dirty mug Freo player was that had a wizza during their pre game warm up .When they did a bit of a kneeling stretch in front of our cheersquad end goals, he casually flipped it out and had a sidewinder thinking no-one could see from behind. Didn't recognize him but a thinner version/size of Tarrant.

Karma got you ya mug and hopefully the league will have a bit of a talk to you too. Why would you want a wizz only 1 1/2 minutes after entering the ground? Should get his faced rubbed in it. Then again they are only a bunch of W A 's country bumpkins and don't know any better.

Go Dees!


Great win today.

Despite how crap Freo were, the most pleasing thing for me was that we played a level of footy that we haven't been able to produce for 3 years, with a team that did not include names such as Green, Bruce, Jamar, Warnock, Grimes to name a few. Our work in close was great, and despite Sandilands getting his hand to almost everything, our midfield was well on top. All of our forward options looked dangerous, our backline was sure as ever, even without Warnock, and we dominated all over the ground. The first real comprehensive match-day coaching performance of Dean Bailey today too.

Jurrah is just awesome, so is Davey, and Bate played an absolute beauty of a game. He cops a lot of flack from some posters, much he doesn't deserve. He's been fantastic pretty much all year in my opinion. Robbo found some of his old spring and was bouncing around like a jack-rabbit. And big Paul Johnson had one of his better performances this year, in nulifying Sandilands' effect on the game.

Scary to think that Freo are pretty much at full strength. They are a weak rabble at the moment.

Very poor crowd. 13004. Wehre was everybody? 1pm start didn't help me, sleeping in meant i got there only just before quarter time. But i'm very glad i didn't miss the next 3 quarters because we just punished them. It was a very sweet victory indeed.

I guess the only consolation of the small crowd was that the kick on the G after the match wasn't anywhere near as packed as it used to be back in the day. All who didn't turn up missed out on the best performance we've had in a very long time. A dominant display by our boys and a really good win.

Freo were crap and handed us our 4th win. Was nice to go out there and barrack hard for a win again, I forgot how nice it was to win by so much. But I still really hope we don't get an upset victory in the last two, however unlikely it may be. Back to experimentation as we meet an arrogant but flaky Carlton team next week i think.

Minus Grimes, Garland, Watts, Blease, Strauss, Benell, Scully and Trengrove :wub:

Unbelievable isn't it? The only problem with that win (other than the crap opposition) is how many of that 22 will be there in the future? Of the 25-odd guys that are out, so many would walk straight into the side.

Works fine for me on my mac (??)

Well [censored]. I'm out of answers. Might just be my shithouse connection.

Here's a stat for you all, which I think sheds some light onto why we were never truly successful in the past decade:

Today was only our 3rd 10 goal win since 2000.

In that time, we've lost 13 under Daniher by over 10 goals and 9 in the last two seasons.


Bloody great win, god that felt good.....10 goals and a kick on the ground after....nothing better! Go Dees

That is exactly why we have very few "untouchables" Thanks for that stat, it should be remembered going into next year as we begin the cllimb.

Nice work, 45HG16.

We haven't gone for the jugular in the past.

Hopefully our future leaders engender that desire when we are decent. Brock, Aaron, and Beamer look like they love to keep piling on the pressure.

The other two were Carlton 2004 (Bruce kicked 7) and...

Wouldn't have a clue...

Hawthorn, '06 by 75 points - mentioned in another thread. Robbo kicked a bunch I think.

Harkes premiers 2 years later. :rolleyes:

They may have won the flag but that win over them gave us a winning culture...

I'm just playing with the 'winning culture' people...

You guys are adorable, you'll love Scully running around for the Dees next year.

Oh, and 'You're Welcome'.

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
