Another 8 goal qtr

another change of boxers

Dees up by 86 pts!

This one gonna be played to death in the off-season..

For all the tossers bagging the team throughout the year - watch this and STFU.

We wouldve beaten geelong out on the 'g today.

A great sign of things to come.

EDIT: oh, and Jimmy MUST start on the bench every week! demon_cool.gif

What a day to suffer the stupid policies of the AFL and Big Pond (or is that Bog Pond?). Living in Thailand, I've suffered long enough, not being able to view videos on line because of AFL/Big Pond copyright restrictions on any online viewing outside Oz.

Now they've extended this ban to radio broadcasts as well !!!

Now I'll have to wait until someone puts up some highlights and the theme song on You Tube!!!

Stick that up you Bg POnd!

Wow!! I just looked up the scores, is that correct or are the philippines Beers playing tricks on me!!!

Maybe last weeks effort has finally sunk in. 4 Quarter efforts Demons, at either the MCG or on the road.

See what the Results bring you....Now have a late run for the finals-it is possible.

How is the Big Jimma's Health?? He would be smiling today.

Yep, pack of absolute pricks at the afl. They want to grow the game overseas but you cant watch or listen to it outside of australia....

And you couldnt even pay to watch this game online at omnisport.tv.

unbelievable.

Telstra are the worst phone company on the planet-The Clubs should be able to stream their own games independantly, i hope it happens one day-The AFL just have no idea about people travelling overseas.

Big Jimma is sitting on the bench doing some "live" crosses" (game is 3pm on tv game in Melb) and indeed he has a smile on his dial>

Try living overseas!

The AFL have no idea about what to do on the net, and then how to implement it. Go back 10 years and they're just like the record companies were re music downloads. The ridiculous thing is that the longer they fail to grasp the nettle, the more opportunities it opens for others.

Awesome news. I hope we had a good turn out in the crowd-Sounds like Jack Watts is starting to come to terms with his AFL abilities. KEEP GOING JACK.

Bartram had a blinder as well. Am loving his work. Tried his guts out all day and won some great contested footy.

I have lived outside Australia for 16 years - Thailand for the past 10. I keep up my membership and as soon as my salary comes this month, I will contribute to the Debt Demolition.

I don't blame Melbourne for this dumb down. It is short sighted thinking from the "wizz kids" at AFL and Big Pond.

Today was even worse, because the Australia Network (ABC satellite TV) had the Doggies v Freo. We had a good run from them earlier in the year, but not on much lately.

Surely someone must be able to understand, if they want to expand the game outside Oz (as we should), they should get out of their small island mindset

Perhaps Jimma and the rest of the club can start the ball rolling for fans EVERYWHERE - not just in the "little pond'...Big Pond ...what a name - full of water hahaha!!

I listened to the game on the AFL Site and I'm in Europe at the moment. I couldn't get it at first and my son sent me a text telling me to re boot I did and it worked after that I'm still listening to the summary.

I do live overseas. I work in the music biz too - used to be called the "record" biz - so I know what you mean and agree entirely.

Their small minded attitude will open up opportunities for others - eventually.

I wouldn't even mind paying for LIVE streaming - well at least a realistic fee - not this whimpy replay for a stupid price and days after the event.

Things would've gotten really serious had Carlton lost last night - would've been just 1.5 games out of the top 8. But not to be.

The win alone 'wins' us respect and we should set a goal of winning 3 of the last 5 games. We can start thinking about finals next year IMO.

Yes i love watching the Australia network, as an ABC employee it makes me very proud. But yes the Dogs & the Shockers did not inspire me, as was last night Geelong v Brisbane!! I went out.

I was able to listen via the AFL site earlier in the year. But the past few weeks - nothing.

I also tried direct via 3AW & MMM same issue.

I hope your son is right - I would have done anything to be able to listen today...well nearly anything !

Australia Network is a great service to all us overseas Australians. It also provides a good service for anyone wanting insights into the country and what Australians think about things like the recent turmoil here in Thailand.

I only hope when the next round of bargaining for AFL rights comes up, it is able to do maintain the rights for footy.

Australia Network is a compilation of all the Australian Networks, with the ABC being the Main Source, so i think the AFL & NRL coverage is safe overseas. It may be a requirement by law-as a service to ex pats. I will ask when i get back home next month.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    PODCAST: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    Join us LIVE on Monday night at 8:30pm—note that this special time is just for this week due to prior commitments. We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits. I apologize for skipping our annual season review show at the end of last season. After a disapponting season filled with off-field antics and a heated trade week, I needed a break. Thankfully, the offseason has recharged me, and I’m back—ready t

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
