Great win.

Vince really should be pushing AA this year. Plenty of other positives.

I have been a fan of Grimes' year so far, but he was poor today. Also, Michie was also poor when he finally got the opportunity.

    What a ripper. When I arrive in Canberra, straight to the red and the replay! I've been a paid up member of the "Jack Watts negativity league", but he's improved hugely over the last 5 or 6 weeks... How was he today?

    Go Dees!

    See the POTY thread. He was great today.

    We need to get Gawn signed up again. If he gets poached by Geelong or the Hawks I'll be furious.

    Loving Gawn's form at the moment. Going to be a lot of good battles between him and Witts for many years. Liked Jack Watts' composure today. And love the fact how we kept faith in Nev and kept him around

    So how do we lose to the Dons and saints!

    Good win now back it up for the first time in a long time against another team we haven't beaten in a long time.

    Looks like I'm going to the game next week to see us win 2 in a row.

    Great game loved the fast ball movement but gosh I have concerns over VandenBergs kicking

    Only Vandenberg?

    Eddie was a broken man and we havent won since 2007 against the filth.

    And a 6 goal win.

    So good. So gooood! :cool:

    Incidentally, how good was the tackle from Watts where he got the guy in a bear-hug and just held him off the ground? Should have been HTB, but the umps were their usual shite.

  • Quote

    As good as the win was, we still made horrible, stupid, under 10s mistakes.

    Roos coached well today, but at times he hasn't.

    Loved Garlos reaction at the end of the game and then when waiting to walk off the ground the hug he gave Dunn was awesome.

    It's almost entirely above the shoulders, I reckon. We just need to keep getting wins, whether ugly/indifferent/scrappy/impressive, and continue to eradicate the losing culture of the past.

    Viney and Gawn are going to be stars.,.. our midfield will be very good in 2016

    The emergence of Maxy is unreal

    we've been schwabbed once before, bb, and that was enough for anyone

    Thought we'd win that. Typical Melbourne. I'm loving the fact that at least 'typical Melbourne' means we win when all seems hopeless and lose when we should win. That was always bound to happen this season. I said we'd win between 6-8 games this year. We've won 6 now, so any wins from here are brilliant. Let's see if we can't break some other records like winning two in a row and winning at Etihad. And Bernie Vince, you're a star.

    He no doubt already considers himself the best ruckman in the league

    Was Eddie on TV or radio?

    On Foxtel doing a Collingwood call with Daicos, Shaw and Straunie, was great to listen to it once we were on top.

  • Quote

    So happy for the win and more so because it was over the Pies

  • Quote

    Great win boys

    Only thing better than beating the Pies in their home game is

    Putting them out of the FINALS RACE

    The Beer will taste SWWEEEEEEEEEEEETTTT TONIGHT AT Metricon!!!

    If I run into Dion Prestia,i'll give him a wink ;

    Was Eddie on TV or radio?

    He was broadcasting Press Red For Ed in Fox Footy. A deliberately biased commentary of the game. I can't wait to watch his version. Was very quiet today. I was loving giving a bit of lip to all the Collingwood supporters around us.

    C'mon mate, can't even put it aside to enjoy the win?

    We would have to be the most insufferable and ungrateful bunch of supporters sometimes. We beat the filth and the first thing you post is a negative.

    • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

      Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      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?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      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.
