They're 3 games and 10 percentage points clear with 3 to go.  Come on mate, anything is possible, but that's such a low probability of happening that it's definitely not worth mentioning.  

I know...I know.

DREAM!

My better-half who is a late convert to the game  made mention today how we (MFC) seem to get a) a hard deal from the umps and b) are victims of barracking by commentators like Derwayne who want us to lose!  

I can't stand Derwayne such a #@!*head

Dare to dream....looking at Norths run they could easily get thumped in a few of those Sydney and GWS......just did the ladder predictor, got us sneaking in by about 1.5% points.....then we play Geelong (again) followed by Whorethorn (again)......probably play Adelaide in the Granny.

We can beat Adelaide.

Sensational win today. It shows what the Demons are capable of. The talent is there to rise further next year.

Enjoy the win everyone. I am going to buy the match DVD.

A bloke called Jesse Hogan still to add back in.

You can still buy those?

Paul Roos - perhaps his legacy will now truly be that of a Messiah - (or possibly Moses, leading his people out of the wilderness).

Anyway, for Roos, today has been the long awaited validation & vindication prior to his valediction.

WHY DO I NEED TO SEE RIOLI'S UGLY MUG ON TV? WE WON, NOBODY GIVES A SH!T ABOUT RIOLI! 

know. Just watching Fox.  Rioli kicked four goals they say, yeah with help of umps for at least two of them. He didn't get pinged for hit on Clayton Oliver then gets free himself.  Fair's fair. Dees won, but it's all Clarkson and Hawks rooms, being interviewed.

Just back for a short break. Couldn't get to the game but watched whilst babysitting grandkids.  They learned some new adjectives, verbs and nouns!

What a win. 

Surely, some adverbs as well. Fxxxing in the right context is an adverb.

I, m up there as far as age goes with other demonland members on this site and are just speechless. One thing Dawes v Pederson argument over

Might come close to matching you for age and could not agree more. Competed harder, marked harder, led better and fought on desperately on the ground. Deserves another match.

I am sick of the love affair with Cyril. He is a good footballer but the media obsession is out of hand. On the news tonight they said we won and then proceeded to say how Cyril kicked 4 goals and showed Cyril's highlights! Why don't they show highlights of the match and how a team won! Pathetic.

Anyway [censored] Cyril. And [censored] the Hawks. Go Dees!!!!

I hope none of our people ever copy what carlton and norf supporters did when they thought they had some talent. Opening Big Footy threads asking "who has the best midfield", followed by 20 paragraphs why they think theirs is the burgeoning superpower. So embarrassing.

 

But you are correct. We finally look to have a bucket load of actually talented footballers running through the middle. Watch them start to line up from other clubs now. This is the sort of win that gets the footy world talking.

 

BEST:

Hawthorn: Rioli, Smith, Hodge, Lewis, Mitchell

That fall from the top is going to be like plummeting off a cliff. I cannot wait.

Yep, exactly what I said to my sister after the game.

Biggest troll on 3AW anyway. Clearly not a Melbourne supporter, but claimed to be. The commentators sounded suspicious, which is why they questioned him.

He's also a sniper. It baffles me how he gets suspended multiple times for acts of thuggery belting guys in the face or trying to crunch their head into a goal post, how he gets done drink driving, yet gets talked about as such a good bloke. He's a dirty sniper. 

Anyway [censored] him. And [censored] the Hawks. We smashed them. GO DEES!!!!!!

Just saw on afl tonight, Mitchell punched Watts while watts was on the ground. He better get cited and given WEEKS. Talk about snipers. Last time ceglar thumped Hogan behind play and he didn't get cited. Tim Watson said on 7 news he'll be reported and get a week.  Hawks are untouchable by the looks of it

Peddo for Jordan Gysberts, the best trade since Bernie Vince for Colin Silvia.

Yes I thought Cyril was doing a fair bit of unjustified, and, as it turned out, premature strutting today. A couple of times he seemed to be waiting for the adoring fellow players to gather around for the predictable accolades.

Back past the Aints again to sit in 10th, will hold it if they fall to Carlton tomorrow - can't see that happening though.  

Whoever wins out of us and Port next week goes a game clear of the other.  Should have our sights on 9th place now.

Carlton are a chance.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    MATCH SIM: Friday 7th February 2025

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
