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.

    PREGAME: Rd 11 vs St. Kilda

    The Demons return to the MCG to take on the Saints in Round 11 on the back of two straight losses in a row. With Jake Lever out with concussion who comes in and who goes out?

    VOTES: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Last week Captain Max Gawn consolidated his lead over reigning champion Christian Petracca in the Demonland Player of the Year Award. Steven May, Alex Neal-Bullen & Jake Lever make up the Top 5. Your votes for the loss against the Blues. 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    The Demons have a 10 day break before they head on the road to Perth to take on the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium on Sunday. Who comes in and who goes out?
