Jesus Christ Melbourne. You just took 10 years off my life you bastards. I can't breathe.

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. Conclusio

For all the cr&p Rodan has got he has played really well tonight. His big body and positioning was excellent. Hopefully it will continue.

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!

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.

    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

    POSTGAME: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was
