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.

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

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.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.

Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
