wish i was there, wish today had've worked out. oh well, it's great to see.

very impressed by gawn again tonight, can be a serious player. frawley and watts very good, kent is very exciting, trengove has been getting much more involved.

really wish we could stop liberatore getting clearances - if we could clamp down on him it'd help extend the lead even further.

yes, i really said the LEAD!!!

Tony Shaw is a FAR#KNG butt face

He accused NJones of dropping the knees and diving forward when he got he free kick inside 50.

Don't worry about the 2 other players on his BACK you doppy, ill informed, overrated spud nuckle.

U r a disgrace.

OH MY GOD We're a football team again!

Haven't seen us play football like this since 2011.

Loving Tom MacDonald's runs through the middle. Even he is shocked!

Best half of footy we have played since 2011. There really is no co-incidence in this. This same team lost by 10 goals to the Suns less than 2 months ago, yet tonight they are playing with flair and confidence.

It is what it is!

2 things - all those who bagged Jimmy Toumpas hang your heads in shame.

Neil Craig can coach, unfortunately Mark Neeld could not (thought he might have been able to, but tonight proves that he lost the playing group). Oh and thirdly Jack Watts can play too!

That shouldn't have been a free, but I'm okay with it for two reasons:

1. Nathan Jones is a hard-nut, who earns what he gets generally.

2. It happened to a Melbourne player, so it's okay.

What a waste of the last 18 months with a [censored] gameplan,we're playing with so much freedom and confidence now.

Great to see Watts really enjoying his footy and not roaming the backline playing unaccountable football.

JT has 14 disposals and running freely again.

Ahhh Big Maxxy

NC wants the job.

Agree !

I haven't thought too many times this year that they know how to play football !

The game is only half over but you can get the feel from this performance that if the team can be bolstered with the addition of a couple of goers next year (and of course the necessary additional draft pick(s)) there might yet be hope for the future

My main beef chook is that he said he dived which he didn't.

That really pizzed me off cause jones ain't no diver.

Clark dawes hogan watts howe with gawn or fitz resting

Just need a mid or two.

Dale Thomas.

i know a lot of people think he is soft, but he is far from soft and he can really play.

Goddard has been the pick up of 2013 and Daisy will be the pick up of 2014.

if anyone had of said after the 2010 grand final that both these players would be on offer in a few years, it would've been laughed at.

Daisy is exactly what we need.

The best thing is he is playing the contest and not even looking at the umps.

Absolutely mate...can't stand him doesn't even contest it. [censored] I hope we get up

I'm not sure about that proving anything..

..but I think i hear that the players are playing on instinct, so I can presume the defensive shackles have been let loose & the players may have been told to take the game on & trust your instincts... this will show up like they are playing.... but it doesn't mean you can do it this way against Hawthorn.

It's obvious Neeld had the team playing in chains.

They are now off.

If our boys have any pride the dogs will be crushed tonight.

The Mark Neeld era will be banished to a distant dark memory.

The entire board must go btw.

Before everyone bags Mark Neeld (who I admit had serious problems in his coaching style and plans), consider also that Neil Craig is a damn good coach whoonly moved on from his old club because he felt that was the best thing for the players.

Make no mistake. He is a legitimate option to coach us next year.

Jack Grimes reckins he'll be out there next week! How good is that?

Also, he says that Neil Craig will be putting his hand up to coach the team next year.

Even better, imagine a bloodthirsty Viney on the field.

    LIVE AND LET DIE by Meggs

    The Demons’ impressive late season charge to finals will most likely come unstuck this Saturday evening when the Bombers blow up the also-ran Blues in the Ikon Park double-header.   To mangle McCartney, what does it matter to ya? To have any chance to play next week Narrm has got a job to do and needs to do it well.  We’ve got to give the Pie sheilas hell, say live and let die! It’s Indigenous Round for this game and the chance to celebrate and engage with Aboriginal and Torres

    2024 Player Reviews: #35 Harry Petty

    Failed to fulfill the promise of his breakout six goal effort against the Tigers in 2023 and was generally disappointing as a key forward. It remains to be seen whether Simon Goodwin will persevere with him in attack or return him to the backline where he was an important cog in the club’s 2021 premiership success.

    After a bright start to the season, playing mostly in defence, Howes seemed to lose his way in midseason but fought back with some good performances at Casey and finished the year back at AFL level. One to watch in 2024. Date of Birth: 7 March 2003 Height: 191cm Games MFC 2024: 15 Career Total:  15 Goals MFC 2024: 0 Career Total:  0 Games CDFC 2024: 6 Goals CDFC 2024: 0

    Originally an NBL basketballer with the Brisbane Bullets, he moved across town in 2019 to the AFL Lions where he played 19 games before crossing to Melbourne where he was expected to fill a role as a back up ruckman/key forward. Unfortunately, didn’t quite get there although he did finish equal sixth in Casey’s best and fairest award. Date of Birth: 23 February 1999 Height: 198cm Games CDFC: 14 Goals CDFL: 13

    Sadly, had to wrap up a great career in midstream on the back of multiple concussions which culminated in the Maynard hit in the 2023 Qualifying Final. His loss to the club was inestimable over and above his on field talent given his character and leadership qualities, all of which have been sorely missed.

    2024 Player Reviews: #40 Taj Woewodin

    The son of former Demon Brownlow Medalist Shane, Taj added a further 16 games to his overall tally of games but a number were as substitute. He is slowly fitting into the team structure but without doing anything spectacular and needs to take further steps forward in 2025 for his career to progress.

    Bowey’s season was curtailed early when he sustained a shoulder injury that required surgery in the opening game against Sydney. As a consequence, he was never able to perform consistently or at anywhere near his previous levels.  Date of Birth: 12 September 2002 Height: 175cm Games MFC 2024: 14 Career Total: 61 Goals MFC 2024: 0 Career Total: 6
