Finally got to unpack some boxes in my new office today. Found my miniature Melbourne desk flag and rather than shoving it into a draw, sat it proudly on my desk.

Had half a dozen congratulations afterwards.

Made today much easier even as I sat through a 3 hour management meeting with a deadly flu.

Nothing quite like a win!

I am no doctor, and I dont know how this is possible but as you have stated that you have a deadly flu, it seems to me that you are the first woman to ever personally experience the dreaded man flu. We have been telling you girls all this time how dreadful it is, and finally we now have one victim who can vouch how terrifying it really is.

Calm down. It was a superb win - one of the greatest - but we have a ways to go. If they lose to the Eagles by 10 goals it'll undo a lot of what has been achieved here.

True consistency imo will be the "turning" point.

Exactly right

It is frustrating to know that last week the knives all come out, and this week we have a dynasty, then if we get belted or even lose to a side considered too lowly, the knives will be straight back out again

Cam mooney loved Brayshaws pass to big Fitzy on sen today . The flogs , harford didn't pick it up either . Hopefully Spencer has a Gawn like game next week .

Loved ANB's interview after the game, spoke really well for a kid. He said after last week he was focusing on his running patterns which I thought was quite evident - the goal he kicked where Watts played on then stopped was a great example.

Watching the replay of the game again, high as [censored] on cold tablets- and this game keeps getting better!

Jetta was underrated in this match. Amazing performance on that weasel Johnson who always kills us, and some excellent decision making. Back to form.

Edit: Billy Stretch looks about 12 years old. I feel old.

Any way to watch the replay other than the afl.com smart replay?

If you have Firefox, download the 'Video DownloadHelper' addon, which you can use to take the URL of the videos out of the Smart Replay website and play them full screen on your TV (avoiding that pathetic small box thing they give you on the Smart Replay website).

AFL TV on BigPond Video typically has the game available for viewing for about a week or so.

Just did this with a similar addon for Chrome however it only captured the first quarter

If it works the same way as mine, start the second quarter video by selecting a goal/behind/anything anywhere in the quarter. Then the URL comes up, and you just need to change the number at the end of the URL to '0' to make it go back to the start.

Digital subscription add on to your MFC membership is about $70. Goes to the club and you get to watch pretty much any game live (even non-MFC games) and all games after a day or so.

Really happy with this purchase I have to say. Don't know if still available.

Good for the club too as it is AFL media that has no cost to the club and provides pure profit from what I can see.

Yep this is how I rewatch all our wins on Chrome, grab the video downloader, click on a goal in each quarter in Smart replay, grab the URL and have it in no time!

The last few days I've noticed more red and blue paraphernalia on the train and around the city than I have seen in the previous 5 years put together. It's great to see!!

More than several times the commentators were saying Johnson was going to bust out and make the game his own. Never happened.

I like watching AFL on my 110" screen not a tablet.

Tablets are great. I can sit outside in the sunshine. Big telly's are Ok and I have one but I save about a $1000 a year without Foxtel just to watch the footy.

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
