We won!!! At last. Almost threw my phone through the wall in the last 10 mins - the AFL app was the only access I had tonight. But we won!!!!

Did we just hold off breaking our own record of losing from 40 points up in the last quarter against Essendon back in 1993 I think? We were 45 up and all but threw it. Anyway we held on this time but really why is it so hard to get a win around here?

I'll take it. The players need to get a taste for winning again. They've been so used to doom and gloom in recent years - this is what it's all about, irrespective of the final margin. Nice to be on Demonland after a match and not talking about a loss.

Blease injured his foot. Poor kid.

Crap win tonight. I'd usually say I'll take any win, but to win that way limping over the line after being 45 points up 15 minutes into the last quarter... that was pathetic and I'm very disappointed.

It's not often we win a game mate. Don't forget we lost a game to a franchise side by 10 goals ON OUR HOME TURF less than 2 months ago. Enjoy the 4 points - things are on the improve!

For all those who are somehow disappointed with this win (as opposed to bloody relieved), remember that just last week the greatest team of all time lost from pretty much the same position.

Conclusion = Melbourne is now better than Geelong.

I need a stiff Drink!!!!

What an ending. Had me interested in the game right until the end.

Now that what Footy is all about.

And I said the MFC would not win another game this season.

Sometime its great to be wrong.

We ran out of legs but it was a terrific effort for the majority of the game.

Before the bounce we would have taken any sort of win.

We played like a team .... at last.

Finally we have a tagger of some use.

Nicho has found his role and we are no longer playing one down with McKenzie spudding it up not hitting targets.

Show some respect to McKenzie keyboard warrior he is the one putting his life on the line for this club whilst you are probably at home in your comfy lazyboy, stuffing your face with chips!

Tom mcdonald has got to be the worst player. He is so indecisive and he usually picks the worst decision out of all of the options. Hyped because he can run but seriously, we can't go forward with him in the team

He's one of those dudes who's better when they don't get too much time to think...

LOL! Takes the game on, defends well, but as always will be dissed for his (admittedly shocking) errors. He isn't perfect, but as tonight has shown (when he TOOK US FORWARD numerous times) we could do worse than have him in our backline.

    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,

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w
