    We’re on fox sorts. Still not over and want to keep watching and reliving it. I’m exhausted but can’t even phantom sleep. Never seen my dad (or my uncle for that matter.)

    He said he never once thought that I was ever, “less devoted” as my brothers being a girl. He told me how happy he was there to share it with him. This has been one of the closest moments ever for us. Mum would have been proud.

    Thank you so much boys. Love you so much 🥰

    I hope the next premiership is not 57 years away because I wont live to see it.

    I have had the great pleasure to see 7 flags in the time I have followed the team from 1952 and this team is not just good but great and hopefully they will do what the Melbourne teams of the 1950's and 1960's did to play in the finals for 11 years from 1954 to 1964 and win multiple premierships.

    It was fitting that they won on the ground were in 2018 their premiership hopes were dashed.

    Precisely.

    Cross all those last items off the list and let’s park this thread forever.

    If you think I wasn't taking the P!ss, you missed my point.

    Yesterday and even today are some of the most enjoyable moments I can remember barracking for the dees.

    Hoping we win a premiership at the G but that one in Perth was a drought breaker for us members and fans.The best game I have seen in my life.

    We haven't won one at the G but we will.

    So happy to be a Melbourne supporter at the moment.

    So I haven't fact checked this, but happy to stand corrected if I have been misled... apparently no premiership team in VFL/AFL history has ever played a single game together after they have won the premiership.  Could we be the first?

    love that we've finally crept off 12 flags up to 13.. only a few more and we will be back to the top of the tree.. THEN i will get a MFC neck tattoo. well, maybe not a neck tattoo.. but i'll work out something.

    That 13 truly was an unlucky number for us. But it’s done now

    3.9 million* people watched the game on TV. Surely that's the biggest audience Melboure has ever played in front of.

    *Excluding the billions of overseas viewers that the AFL used to claim would watch the Grand Final because it was being shown in markets with total population in the billions, but with a likely viewing audience of, perhaps, thousands.

    This may be in one of the other 3.2 million threads started on Demonland in the last 36 hours, but is our total winning margin of 190 in the three finals a VFL/AFL record?

    Gold Coast feature six times, North and Carlton five times each which are not stats to be proud of.

    Here's a random one... the Dee's have never lost a game while I have been in WA....

    Year 2000 was in WA last round of H&A (WCE in Perth - Bluey McKennas final game) through to the prelim... I flew back to Melbourne for the Gf!!! 

    2021 was in WA from the final H&A game and Flew from Broome to Perth for the GF (watched the Prelim in Derby after doing the Gibb River Road)

    and the cautious optimism we shared as each mission was completed.

    It's a shame the Suns are there (maybe they can have a late-season win when we're 3 or 4 games clear on top): a '9' with 'Geelong' next to it, in about 2024, will be nice...

    Interested to know at what stage of the season did everyone "know" that we were the real deal, and were a serious shot at a flag.

    Would have to go back through my own history, but I reckon I had us as premiership favorites maybe 6 rounds prior to end of regular season.

    As a 40+ year negative nancy, that was a bloody good feeling.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
