IT'S A GRAND OLD FLAG

IT'S A HIGH FLYING FLAG

IT'S THE EMBLEM FOR ME AND FOR YOU

IT'S THE EMBLEM OF

THE TEAM WE LOVE

THE TEAM OF THE RED AND THE BLUE

EVERY HEART BEATS TRUE

FOR THE RED AND THE BLUE

AND WE SING THIS SONG TO YOU (WHAT DO WE SING)

SHOULD OLD ACQUAINTANCE BE FORGOT

KEEP YOUR EYE ON THE RED AND THE BLUE

 

Beat the Cats at Skill next week and we are in the eight.. Do you think they will have any petrol left.

I know that last quarter was utter rubbish from us, but we were stuffed.

Jamar could barely breath, we had Aussie, Morton and Watts who are lacking a bit of fitness, we haven't won an interstate game since 1973 and Port are a good team.

We dominated for long periods of the game and deserved to win. This victory should not be underestimated.

GO DEES!!!

 

If the coaching staff ever put Sylvia in the ruck when you have bigger guys like Miller there I'll vomit!

Cost us 4 goals (no fault of Sylvia's).

No team, I do not care how experienced should lose a game when 32pts up at 3/4 time.

Especially when they were playing a ok side, not Geelong or another of their ilk.


I'm just so f****** relieved we held on. Took a lot of character to get back the lead with a few minutes left. Bennell - 4 goals, Watts - 2 goals, Miller - 5 goals... Jetta on fire. There's a lot to enjoy about tonight's game.

The win will do them a world of good. Bailey's fist interstate win!

GOOOO DEEEEEEEESSSSSS!

wut.

isn't it also the first time Bailey has coached a win away from the MCG?

Thank feck! Now I can stop listening to those idiot ABC Adelaide radio commentators - learn the Melbourne player's names FFS. GO DEES

Should have got a stream from SEN, great call by their blokes.


Trengove the match winner! -I was prayng for someone to rush a behind-

Jamar 34 hit-outs!

Miller 5 goals.. Benny 4..

The Jet 8 tackles, 6 marks..

Watts.. gettin better all the time..

Nice...

sorry to say, but they would be destroyed after that game. Need a good recovery after the darwin game. May have a few more outs next week for the sore bodies.

I hate Foxtel, poor cameras and no song!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They will learn a lot more from that game, then if they had gone on to a big win. Good sides never give up and win when challanged.

5 goals up is nothing in footy these days


Trengove over the top to hit it in for a point, just smart.

love it.

ITS A GRAND OLD FLAG

fantastic effort all round in trying conditions

Russian you efforts are inspirational

great effort boys

special mention to the Jet

nev welcome back

The stuff heart attacks are made from...Go Dee's!

Sylvia in the ruck when the game is in the balance WTF! What about using Miller.

Foxel would have to be THE WORST channel to watch live footy on, replays while live action is happening :o

We need to play fit players only.

Me too,I thought we would fold as soon as port had a lead,mind you I thought port had unbelievable luck(as they often do)and we overcame "that" too.Have watched footy for near 5 decades,still don't remember a side on song having such [censored] umpires and bad bounces.

Jamar could barely breath,

And yet, he (pretty much) took the winning mark, which he would have slotted.

Robbed of the play that would launch him into MFC folklore, and forever squash the "spud" calls...


We win by one.

Miller kicks 5!

Tonights effort (from miller), doesnt mean much in terms of his career.. he needs to do it EVERY week, is what i said..

The shame that you would pull out a snippet of my statement and twist it and change it to suit your arguement.. i agreed he had A good game..

You have just joined the lowest of posters that would resort to doing such a thing - just to look good in front of a bunch of strangers..

You battle hard, but now you just sound like a fool.. lost all respect rhino, your true colours have shone thru..

Anyway.. cant you just enjoy the win?

I certainly am..

Miller was rucking around the ground. I think they would have trialled him at training and decided he wasn't any good, so go with Sylvia who wasn't absolutely rediculous (nearly won a few) and then gave something at ground level.

As for foxtel saying we would have been better off with Spencer, they clearly didn't watch Jetta's game.

Next week I expect to see Spencer in though to give the russian a chop out. He can't do as much as he did this week every week of the season.

He was enormous for us today, seriously brilliant.

There is no spud left in him anymore, he is all beast.

(But he should never kick the ball) B)

 

My throat is horse, the Umpires suck, we had the cat in the bag, then someone opened it again and let it out, it then claws us and it takes a Super bloody human effort to choke the life out of it at the end.

If anyone here is not proud of the boys then, you should hang your head in shame.

30+ degrees up there.

Its a wonder they all just didnt collapse on the ground like Jamar did at the end.

Talk about Character building !!!

Well done DEES but please dont make a habit of it , I dont mean winning, I just mean winning by a kick.

The stress is terrible on everyone.

But a win is a win and bugger it we deserve it, all of us, we really did deserve it!!

Happy now. This was a game we really needed to win, even before we got out to a 30+ point lead. Port have been in very good form and as has been mentioned we have had a few problems away from the 'G. Getting over the line in this one is a huge step forward as well as keeping our season on track.

Well done team.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
