Posted this on the Post-Match thread, but does anyone have any idea who we might be playing first up in the finals (depending on win/loose against GWS)?

    I know it’s a long shot. Freo was excellent this week and all 

    You'd think they'd want to show SOMETHING after this week on their home deck in the last game of the year.

    So happy the lads did this themselves and not rely on other results and thrilled to bits for all of us long suffering fans, GO THE MIGHTY DEMON'S, TAKE EM ALL TO HELL, and lets see if they can handle were we live.

    From what I can see:

    - if we lose against GWS we get the looser of Swans/Hawks. 

    - if we win against GWS, probably get Geelong.

    I’ve just had a big sobfest. I’m still shaking. I still am having trouble believing it. Demons IN THE FINALS. No matter what happens, I’m proud of them. No more butt of everyone’s jokes. I don’t like to see all those “I’m done with this team” people’s faces right now. Especially that idiot that claimed on Facebook that after the loss last year, he was now a full paid member of Essendon.

    It' will be Hawthorn/Sydney (loser of) if we lose vs GWS, or else Geelong.

    If pigs fly and Freo defeats Collingwood, a win will see us make 4th spot and play Richmond.

    A very happy day.  Not quite the emotion I felt in 1987 as a 17 year old at the Western Oval but I'm thrilled for all the true believers who have maintained the faith over a very long period.  I'd like to thank Paul Roos, Bernie Vince and Daniel Cross who made the decision to be a part of the rebuild of this club 5 years ago.  The foundations those guys built are the bedrock of what is about to unfold.

    Count not your chickens just yet - Port Adelaide could beat Essendon by 250 points and edge us out.

    Any other time I'd be happy to see that. But I'm in a good mood so I'll cut EFC a break.

    • PREGAME: West Coast

      The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.
