Because the AFL are always looking to promote their two start ups wherever possible.

Andy if you are still grumpy just grab a few highlights from previous 6 weeks and enjoy again mate.

    How can any demon supporter be grumpy today with the news of TMac re-signing!

    I've turned that frown upside down since then but now you have just reminded me about Jesse and I'm grumpy again.

    Don't get me started on Nic Nat getting the Ruck gig ahead of Maxy in the AFL Team of the Week.

    Too bad he missed that goal after the siren , would have finished with 6.

    Times are tough.

    Jesse's was from a much tighter angle. Ablett's was just further out.

    his check side was equally good. only took half a pace to his left.

    What is being overlooked is that Jesse ran to made good position to receive, looked for options, found none to his liking, decided that the best option was to shoot, changed stride, steadied and kicked the perfect goal from that position. Pure, pure skill.

    No fluke but a considered, premeditated shot from a severe angle while on the move. That's what sets it apart from all the others.

    It's what we have come to expect from Jesse. His football smarts and execution in his many roles are exceptional.

    I simply do not care about these side shows. I don't care about goal of the week, mark of the year, the Brownlow votes or the opinions of football media etc.

    I care about one thing winning games up to and including the GF.

    They can say what they like I simply don't care.

    Speaking of Jesse, when was the last time a Demon kicked back to back bags of five?

    EDIT: Just had a look, best I could find was Russell Robertson back in 2005.

    This is a job for @Supermercado

    I will stand corrected but given that we were lucky to score five goals in a week most of the time after 2007 that Russell Robertson's 7 and 6 in Round 20-21, 2005 are the winners.

    Next was Neitz with 6/6/5 in Round 16-18, 2004 (also had 8/5 in Round 20 and 22, 2006 but missed the game in the middle).

    What about +5 goal Melbourne players since 2000 full-stop. It's an eclectic selection - will update if I've missed any.

    This hasn’t really got anything to do with this weeks goals of the week but I’ll put it here anyway. 

    I’ve been thinking the last couple of weeks how with all the goals we’ve kicked over the last month, none of them have been jaw dropping pulled out of your arse goals, or flukes or lucky bounces. 

    They’ve pretty much all been standard, well structured goals. Shows how well everything is working. 

     

    [censored] we’re boring.

    Agreed. We must have had about 10 goals against Adelaide that were as good as the GWS nominated one. If this is what it is like to be boring, then bore the hell out of me! ?

    I think Jesse's should be goal of the week just for the comedy gold going on in the background with Gawn and his opponent while Hoges was kicking it.

    • PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?
