Come on hardtack, we're all in love now... ;)

I believe in a person having the courage of their convictions... H-H's a repeat offender... let him take the long walk off the short pier.

I'm still in disbelief.

Cannot fathom the fact that we actually beat those drug cheating scums.

That whole passage of play to set up the Salem goal was incredible. Roosy said it was the best passage of play for the entire year, and I'd have to agree.

Can't wipe the smile off my face. GO DEES!

Great balance of attack and defence in the second half. Great character building win. Where the hell was that run in the first half? Aside from Viney no mid ran to space in the first half. Forwards continually ran to the same spots. Players missed kicks that should be routine. We should have been 10 goals down and the mood on here would be very different. McKenzie and Riley were liabilities in the first half but once Salem came on and McKenzie started actually trying to get the ball when it was there to be won we looked much better.

We played about 40 minutes of footy. We never looked like winning it and still can't quire believe we snatched it. Hopefully, this is the platform we need to go to that next level.

Jamar was immense in the last 40, given Bellchambers had given him a bath in the first half.

Grimes probably played the best game of his career. He should have kicked that first one, but made some good decisions today.

After a one dimensional first half, McKenzie earnt his spot in the second half. He was terrific.

Despite giving away two or three goals from clangers, Dunn was excellent.

Then you have Nathan Jones, who was our most consistent player. What a leader.

Not much difference 2 last week what is the biggest difference 1 kicking goals, last week kicking en points one wins games one loses games.

After tonight, I think your posting name wins first prize for the most appropriate. ;)

Agree Pedo was great in starting that last scoring play - but everyone along the chain of play picked the right option - Chip, Jordie, Tommy Mac, Viney & Cross - all of them could have let the pressure get to then and blaze away but it was a perfect chain of footy.

Blatant free kick to Frawley not paid, probably just as well.

afl 360 will be great viewing tomorrow night. with thompson and roos.

Just watched the last 2 minutes on the net. wow and listening to the last quarter highlights on 774 was great stuff. Even better was we won without dawes kicking a goal. From the radio it sounds like dunn was awesome, McKenzie did the job on stanton and cross came back after doing some mistakes.

That last 2 minutes was great. That last play was awesome to watch the way we got the ball to Salem, no panic they knew what to do. Pederson to get that handball to Jones to start that play off was fantastic. And when they got the centre clearence in the end and had it in there forward line, again the players didnt do anything stupid by giving away a free. I think the best moment from that footage was Roosy and the smile on his face and the fist pump.

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm
