Post Match Discussion - Never in doubt

Featured Replies

After the Richmond win I enjoyed a classy bottle of red. Tonight I'm reaching for the viagra!

Careful now are you up to all this excitement in the one day.
 

Great game by Crossy

Jordie did a brilliant job on Stanton and was instrumental in a couple of key plays

NJones never gives up

Jamar fought back well after being towelled up in the first half

Dunn was mega on their two resting ruckmen the whole game

Tommy Mac was fantastic despite a few heart stopping moments

Great team building effort from the boys.

I so f********g hate those scumbags from Essendon!!!!

 

Drugs must have worn off at half time

And the irony of it all is that the player that nearly won the game for them (Zaharakis) didn't touch the stuff.

Dunny has been very good this year. Still, he frustrates me with his occasional brain fades. He had a fkn great game tonight.

Is he better the Frawley down back?


Me and my 10 year old daughter were surrounded by bummer supporters, when they kicked that goal to take lead back he was behind us screaming lungs out and spitting all over us. I got up told him to shut the f%^k up and told me if l didn't like it to go somewhere else. We didn't and when Salem kicked the goal l turned around gave him a look and he was just about crying, it was beautiful..........hate bummer supporters

I was on the train in my dees jumper, surrounded by red and black sardine style, just quietly whistling the grand old flag with a s-eating grin on my face, nobody appreciated it, which made it all the more sweet

Even Demonlanders' old favourite, Dwayne Russell, spoke of Melbourne's "resurrection" during his commentating at the end of the game and asked "how do we sign up?"

 

Was as at the game tonight, bloody pumped.

There's opposition supporters, there's uneducated supporters then there's Essendon supporters. Every passage of every play to some of these people was holding the ball, holding the man, deliberate out of bounds, incorrect disposal......

Carlton and Collingwood have a certain arrogance about them but Bombers supporters have taken the cake. Blatantly no idea about the rules and their ongoing arrogance with regards to the whole drugs saga makes this win even sweeter .

Surprised you have no steel between your ribs C and B

1 bloke appreciated, the smug [censored] whistling in his finest Dees jumper. Nice.

Riley struggled to find the footy today but his tackle in the third term was awesome. Inspired his team mates to up the ante. Dawes (twice) and Pedersen quickly followed suit and the tide started to turn. The more footy changes, the more it stays the same. It is a brutal game and when you start to assert yourself physically it's amazing how a game can change. I thought our tackling and pressure in the second half was a key reason for the turn around. It's incredible how a team starts to run in numbers when a big tackle, chase down or smother creates a turn over.

Loving this from BomberBlitz:

Hurley lost us that game single handedly by costing us 5+ goals from contests he either should have broken open or by being pushed out by people half his size. He is a joke in defence and should be played forward.

Wow. The Watts/Hurley comparisons are officially dead and buried. Ha!

That Roar when kent kicked the goal was epic!!

Finals like.

Bomber's Bombers Bomb


Reckon it was my day to day. Go to the Gee watch our worst first halves of footy since last year but somehow the Bombers keep us in it, missing sitters left, right and centre. I had all but given up hope wondering wherebthis list is at. Then against all odds we somehow snatch victory from the jaws of defeat. Amazing stuff.

I then walk home down Smith Street Collingwood, no pies supporters to be seen, strangely enough; several people stop to congratulate the MFC on our win, I stop to buy a bottle of red to celebrate and high five two fellow Demon supporters in the bottle shop then walk on past two people who asked me for money but I have the radio on and pretend not to understand ( yes I am a tight arse but I see these people everyday) but 100 metres down the road outside the Smith Street supermarket I see two ten dollar notes on the footpath. I pick them up and look around but there is no one to give it too! and I would have if there was a beggar around.

I give up it is just my day, the planets are aligned! Go Dees.

Trenners and Hogan will be absolutely desperate to get fit and prove they are in our best 22

I've been in Melbourne's rooms and it's felt so depressing until recently. Tonight the passion was so powerful. It'll live with me for ages.


Some more gold from Bomberblitz:

"I'd call it the worst loss of the modern era. Even worse than all the other Melbourne losses."

"We should never lose another ******* game to that bottom feeding club. Absolutely sick of this rabble every time we play them."

"Pathetic, and to cap it off I have a broken remote and two fist holes in the wall.

Faark I hate losing to sides we prop up, to think we are footing the bill for the cocksucker Roos infuriates me even more."

"lucky we don't have any draft picks then, I guess."

"What is it now 4 losses in the last 5 games against this pathetic club? We are their *****."

"Wont Melbourne hurry up and fold, sick of those broke pricks embarassing us."

OH, HOW SWEET IT IS!!!

Their arrogance of entitlement is why I hate the Bombers so much.

Hands down, the one game I want to win every year. Suffer!!!!!!

My fav from the Ess meltdown on Bomber blitz

"Frawley 2Pedersen 2 (one of them from about 70)Clark 2Watts 2 (one of them a handball in his lap 25m out)The game wasn't lost down back."

Clark 2....Man I wish

He mast have been referring to Clark Kent.

agreed. Been going to the footy for a while now, Dons supporters are the worst out of any team!

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
