Felt the whole game the commentators were making comment as though there only people watching were Richmond supporters. As though it was all about Richmond and not us. Extremely happy we got over the top of them. 

Pumped right now.

Viney, Gawn, Bernard....there are so many...awesome.

to those that jumped off the Paul Roos bandwagon, get back on. Believe and enjoy the ride!

Only heard it on the "internet radio" but what a great game.  To be honest it was a far better tigers outfit that last week, they pushed us but we responded all game which is brilliant.

Initial thoughts:

Umpires can go [censored] themselves with whatever black and yellow object they want. We won despite them.

Dom Tyson back to his best. Fantastic.

Gawn and Viney could both wim brownlow. 

Alex Rance showed himself to be scum.

I love how our forward set up doesn't rely on Hogan. He doesn't carry it like we thought he'd have to, and I think this will make him a better player and more at ease in his wanting to belong to this team. Well done coaches.

Dees are here. You little [censored] ripper!!!

Thank you Paul Roos. 

I agree, the umpiring today was shocking. Deplorable, hasn't been that bad since we beat Adelaide in Adelaide last year.

The streak has begun.

I know I've been a negative nancy but that was frustrating.

Still, a win is a win!

What's frustrating about a win like that? We did everything a good team needs to do. We answered the challenges and won going away.

C'mon!

"I forgot how much I hated Melbourne", I love that been waiting years for it to move from sympathy to hatred!!!

Being a good side means being hated.

Happy with that.  If we can play like this all year we'll win more often than not.  The top teams will still have us, but we're right in the mix for the middle tier 

I will say I think Viney has just made a spot in the side for Petracca next week.  I can see he and Rance both going for a week.

Everyone we have brought in is tough!  Bugg,  Kennedy, Hunt and Wagner are tough and hence composed and it makes such a difference. 

We are a team that flies the flag and doesn't back down.  The demon has risen again and it is just [censored] fantastic!!

Another solid game from Hunt and Warner 

Yes they really look the goods.

Gus Brayshaw is way off the pace, not sure why but I expect he will be replaced by Tracca or Oliver.  

 

Go Dees

Viney and Gawn wow just wow. 

Viney will make a great captain when it's his time.

I asked this in the game day thread.

 

are you suggesting Viney gets a week for his initial reaction or something else?

Nice crowd too for a Sunday night game. Official crowd: 59,968 at the MCG

Good for the coffers and you think the AFL with think about making it permanent given its success over the first 2 games.

I fear you are right. Though how a deliberate foul act by Rance can be the same penalty as what Viney did, only the AFL and its stooges can say.

I love how we now stand up for each other and actually Shepard. 

Keep it up boys.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    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

    PODCAST: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    Join us LIVE on Monday night at 8:30pm—note that this special time is just for this week due to prior commitments. 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
