Umpires helped us a lot.

Oscar was VAFA in the first half but All Australian in the second.

Fitting that Watts kicked the sealer, an excellent goal at that.

Tyson does himself no favours.

Team selection still wrong despite the win.

On a personal note, Mini Bizkit was born a few days ago, bought her membership last night so today she was our good luck charm.

 

Great post.

 

Oscar just didn't use the numbers around him in the first half and gave it back.  Good 2nd half.

 

Tyson's game had everything; toughness, composure, skill.  Loved his game.  

 

 

No ruckman.  A lot of our players down or average.  Good win.

 Much to think about

Pies took almost twice the number of marks. Smashed the hit outs and still lost.

Viney, Oliver and Trac had an awesome second half. So funny Watts kicked that goal after pies supporters booing him again.

Glad Watts slotted that last goal, could have easily slewed off his foot,and imagine how unhappy we would have all been,instead here we are in the 8 you beauty.

Great win for the club but just as big game next week against the Bulldogs at Etihad. we are both 6-5 and we are ahead of them on percentage.

We finally won a close one!  On the G no less!  Hooray!

6th on the ladder means we are above Ess (who have played an extra game) and above the Bulldogs...

...and we play the Bulldogs next week - HUGE GAME!

Cometh the hour cometh the Jack. 

Still some obvious flaws in the team but at 6-5 with Hogan and Gawn to come back in, you couldn't ask for much more.

That is Jack Watts, I assume?  Re Jack Watts, not bad effort given he played on a bad ankle and went off in the 1st quarter with a back problem which he carried thru the game.  Hopefully no-one pots him for lacking courage...

Why this team refuses to play 4 quarters is beyond me. Do they just expect to turn up and for it to fall our way?

Do we expect that we will still work our way back into games when we are behind? (we have been in every game this year)

For the sake of your supporters' physical and mental health, how about playing good football right from the get go then continuing to do so for the full 4 quarters Dees?

A win's a win, but i reckon i have had my life shortened by 5-10 years this season.

Well we all know we can play a lot better than that which is the great thing about a close win.

Looking forward to a full team four quarter effort next week against the Dogs. They are ripe for picking and this game should have given us real belief.

Who knows... we could go in favourites (O No!!)

Umps helped us in the end. 

Given we are ranked 18th for frees for, quite frankly I don't give a toss!

they would need to help us in about 5 more this war to even up the ledger.

    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
