At WJ's request I'm going to try to get a DVD of the game from the studio that we can distribute to you all.

That would be great.

Maybe we can get copies made for a donation that we can put back into the club or give to Reach?

Would love love love to see that last quarter. Hearing BT screaming orgasmically about Jurrah, but then seeing nothing but a random pixelated forest was so frustrating!

Jurrah certainly picked the right time to put in a massive game, considering the CEO of Kaspersky was watching his first ever AFL match.

After this he'll know for certain that their sponsorship money is going in the right place.

Apologies for the rubbish ICS feed on smgbb.cn - no idea what was going on with the bushland backdrop.

The broadcast looked great on TV over here, aside from the fact that we couldn't get audio from the staduim until half way through the first, meaning we had to commentate from the studio.

Jurrah had a field day, 5 goals, half a dozen more chances and he made it all look easy.

Really impressed with Col today, broke the lines and kicked long. Always dangerous.

They were the standout players.

Newton was tried in defense, got a bit of it. Most of the other players drifted in and out of the game.

Ah,, beauty, thanks 'Wise' & thanks Jack for thinking of us all.

Amongst all this... let's not forget two of many key players we were missing in Greeny and Chip!

I hope they have learned of our great result in Shanghai today and all the best to the duo against Ireland. :)

Love the line, "Cries of "kick it to Jurrah" could be heard ringing around the stadium as he dominated the final term and is clear the Demons have a new hero".

He continues to amaze, everything about him. Drafting him was the best thing we have ever done. Players like Jurrah create life long memories- they bring people to games and sell memberships.

It is getting harder for me to consider myself a hard done by supporter these days... we have so much to smile about!

This is the one line that schocked me from the fox sports match report:

"But Melbourne ruckman Jake Spencer kicked a long-range reply a minute later and the prodigious Jurrah then sparked into action."

Apparently is was fifty metres out AND on the run!!!

Surely this can't be right for a guy that dropped the ball kicking a set shot.

Would be great if Melbourne could release an official DVD. If not its an opportunity gone begging.

good idea...send it to the club ( seriously )

We all know it, and we have all said it... Lanky, gangly, unco ruckman take time. Sure, he's no Sandilands, but perhaps he is just that little bit less unco now.

The only continent on which the Demons are yet to prevail is Africa(I don't count Antarctica.....though I'd be pretty confident down there!).

Who says we don't travel well!!?

There has been one Australian Football game in South Africa, but we weren't in it. Otherwise , we'd have the clean sweep.

( Incidentally.....we must avoid a game in Afghanistan against Collingwood. (the stands would be full of Taliban Collingwood supporters).

Too bad we can't do anything worthwhile interstate.

    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,
