Post Match Discussion - Never in doubt

Featured Replies

Sure hope so, minus the Eagles bit (can't stand that team)

Me too, I really hate the Weagles. My 8 year old grandson barracks for the Dockers (like his dad) but tells me time and time again that Melbourne is his favourite VICTORIAN team. He too is not an Eagles fan.

 

I get to! Yay for night shift.

Doubt there'll be much happening around here by about 3am though :P

I'm staying up to watch the 3.30am replay on Fox Footy. Can't wait.

haha so am I. This win is crazy, I can't stop randomly shaking my head and fist pumping. I knew there was a reason I supported through all those hard times, cause winning is an amazing feeling.

 

My son's in the same boat... he's just truned 12 and hasn't seen a lot of success. It was certainly a lift for him though after his team, the Newtown Swans, were suffered a 38 point loss to the ladder leaders earlier in the day.

Mine's similar: 14. Luckily for me/him, we live overseas, and has only seen about 3 matches his whole life. Luckily for him/us, we've somehow managed to win all of them, which has somewhat skewed his perception of the team - a perception I haven't been in a hurry to correct. Go Dees.

Reading the bomber forums is so good it should be illegal.

My favourite comment: "WHO THE **** IS DEAN KENT!!!!!!!!!"

He certainly knows who he is now. :)


I used to go to games in the post-Northey era appalled at not recalling one smother.

Today we had 7, 8, 9?

Young Salem smother = Watts goal; and then the composure with 34,000 ferals shouting at you.

here, here.

daniel cross definitely needs to be given an extra year. He has been fantastic this season,.

could you fit 2 Daniel Cross's into this side?

I'm staying up to watch the 3.30am replay on Fox Footy. Can't wait.

A Friend out on a farm has Foxtel... do you know if the game is replayed later today, or this week some time?

 

Wears a dress

Not to be confused with Michael Hurley.

Carlton, Richmond, Essondon. Just plain wonderful.

Norf?


About Vince, Gerard Healy was spot on about him OTC last Monday.

I'm more of a Cross man myself.

Don't watch the show, what did he say about Bernie?

McKenzie's run on the wing was brilliant but for me the highlight was Pedersen's duck which set the whole play up.

Seems ironic that Pederson won the game for a duck considering his first game last year!

Not to be confused with Michael Hurley.

Geez he is a bloody average footballer

As I recall he was a top 5 pick, taken couple of spots after Jack Watts in the same draft, and not long ago he signed a 5 year 500k per season deal

Deserves a lot of media scrutiny, they love to talk trash on Watts lack of physicality well Hurley has 12 kg;'s on him and never does anything physical and never imposes himself on a contest

1.30pm EST is the next replay.

If you look at the image plus 2 hours, its in Perth time.

That he (Bernie) is comfortable with being a B grader when he could become an A grader.

I found it a dumb comment. If it were that easy everyone would be an A grader.

Putting Kent's running goal in my top 3 in between the wiz at Waverley and TJ at subiaco.

My favourite was Woewodens running goal from the back pocket. Can't remember the year or opposition but it was an all time great..

Also saw Wells do similar against Geelong way back when.

"Of all teams, OF ALL FKN TEAMS we embarass ourselves against this 2 bob, pissant club AGAIN.

See 2011, see 2012 FKN GROUNDHOG DAY against this shite. Absolute fkn livid.

Hurley should have gone forward in the last quarter IMO, too stubborn bombre"

Just lifted this off Bomberblitz (good reading). Gracious aren't they? BTW who is bombre? Dumb ..ucks!!

I just coughed my toast up in laughter when reading that.

Gold.

What is the underlying to this magnificent goal is BELIEF.

Theres now BELIEF at the MFC

and it all starts with that

I thought it started with PJ my new GOD!

Reckon Jade Rawlings stocks must be rising as a future coach given the way the backline in functioning and his popularity with the players.

 

I'll be watching all the footy shows tonight, I may tape FC as I hate it but I want to watch Lloyd make excuses.

  • 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.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    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.
