Best win in, probably, a decade.  Amazing stuff.

Yes, we can get better defensively and clean up our disposal a touch, but please - enjoy it everyone.  Sit back, relax and enjoy something that hasn't come around in 10 years.

Best win since we beat the swans by 74 points in 2011..

Who gets the rising star nod? 

Petracca 24 and 2 goals

Harmes 26 and 3 goals 

 

great signs

So I'm currently in the middle of the Baltic sea. It took me 45 minutes and $200 to find a viable internet connection, and all I can say is WTF?!

24 goals? Who are we? What has happened to Melbourne? Are GC just crap?

Gawn from what I can tell reading the play on the AFL app, seemed to be involved in everything!

Statement win. Genuinely can't remember the last one like it. Beating up on GWS and GC in their first years doesn't count so you have to go back a very long way.

Jones and Viney leading the way with Clarry and Petracca staring in a supporting role. Pedomyths excellent with pressure and conversion. Jeffy on fire. Wagner settling very nicely. Gawn dominant. Harmes best game of his short career. So many positives.

Gold Coast were really, really, really bad. Bad I'm happy. Think we're a good chance against the doggies next week. 

What are you still posting here for mate?

Did that just happen? It was kind of a wild blur after half time.

So glad to see us finally put a team to the sword. Relentless.

Agree. Suns depleted but our first Bloodbath since Swans game 5 years ago.

One for the Harmes haters also.

Monday morning I'm getting both papers (pressed & ironed), coffee brewed and looking forward to looking at ladder position.

That win was in 2010 and was 73 points.

One goal between Hogan and Watts, our two leading goalkickers yet we still managed to kick 24 goals. Not too shabby.

I always seem to be living in Japan when we are up and about.
I've been waiting to see us grind a team into the dirt for quite some time. To be fair, the Suns are way down on confidence. That being said, before this, we would find some way to arse it up.
I also felt weird in one way. I could see how an opposition supporter might looked at us around 2012/2013. We were tearing them a new one but strangely, I felt a strange sense of pity towards them. 
Anyhow, we have a BIG challenge next week. Can we back up? Watch this space.

    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.
