Umpires were biased and won it for the dees, what a disgrace. biggest cheats ever, are they paying them off? /s

Heard of full stops numb nuts? Your sentence is about as effective as Mitchell was today. Have a cry.

Looking forward to hearing from those at the G on their arrival home, thinking about it, might have to wait till tomorrow.

 

I can't even. I need to compose myself. I am without words, literally, because I lost my voice about 10 minutes in. 

Greatest. Win. Ever*

The obvious question after this match and the Geelong match last year is: "Where is Jesse Hogan at?"

Jessie Hogan causes logjams in our forward line. i don't think he is the merchandise he was hoped to be. he is an excellent bullocking player, maybe should play off the half-back line. No dammit, we need him.

RTG

the /s at the end means 'end sarcasm'.  John is taking the pizzzz.

 

GO DEES

I have said it all year, I don't think hawthorn can win the flag. Their current style of footy won't hold up in 3 finals. They sweat on opposition mistakes and use their precision from there. Not sure they will get that luxury for a whole month of finals against other top teams.

 

I'm overseas, is there anyone that can recommend how I go about watching a replay of it? I want to live every second of this incredible win!

Probably more likely that with Hogan there, mids don't take as much care about delivery into f50 & just bomb it to him, hoping that he's 1-on-1 not 1-on-3.

Without Hogan there, they take more care with their delivery. No reason they can't do that with Hogan there (with Weid & JW, of course!).

This is the Melbourne Football Club's greatest moment since 8 September 2006. That's 3,620 days.

Just got a msg from a whorethorn mate, "we played shite, Frawley in and we would have choked you guys, you better thank the afl for your win, as the only reason your here is cause they bailed you out". He is cut deep, and I love it. Not even going to reply, just let him stew on it. 


I posted this earlier in the week... I can't believe we achieved the lot...

except point 1, where we TOTALLY SCHOOLED THEM TODAY!!!!!

?????????????

What I'm most looking forward to this week:

- watching our future premiership side learning from the masters

- a 4 quarter full blooded effort

- hand balling and kicking to players wearing the same colours..... and it landing in their hands, not at their feet!

- A game where we get back to kicking more goals than behinds

- that anticipation that you get in the days leading up to the game, where you think "if we can just do this and that, we're a chance here"

best win since elimination final v carlton, 2000, imo.

Just woke up here - wot's happening??   Don't tell me we've beaten hawthorn??????!!!!!  

Woke at 6am over here to watch the game without too many hopes of a win. My neighbours are now aware of the great win by the Dees. Still only 9.15am here but I may have to have a drink..

 

Oliver's game today was also a ripper, and further proof we need to trust the FD more.  He had 5 weeks out in the VFL, away from the spotlight, to work on areas of his game and freshen up, and look at the result.  They knew what they were doing and were rewarded for it.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

  • CASEY: Footscray

    At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

  • PREGAME: Brisbane

    The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

    Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
