I have legit been crying since that Kent goal. My daughter and missus think I'm an idiot. They clearly dont understand what this [censored] club has done to us supporters for over a decade 

My missus has been outside gardening and thought someone was dying in that last quarter from the sounds in the house.

I won't admit it, but yeah I will... I choked up big time :)

Just read an interesting stat:

First time since R01 that WCE have conceded 90 points in a game -
19 games in a row without conceding 90 points was the longest streak in the AFL era...

Game plan goes alright by the way...

If we ever kick straight it would take us a lot further. God it is frustrating!

When we missed in 2000 I got such a reaction I thought my marriage was over. Some people just don't understand. Fortunately still going strong.

The noise at that venue was unbelievable!! I went to th port game earlier and thought that was loud, this sounded next level on the telecast especially at non decisions. Can anyone who attended let us know what it was like at the ground?? Great effort these boys have got some C in em!!!

When Hannan missed and they came at us and hit the front I thought we were cooked, today was the day the team dug deep and found something extra. There was every reason for us to capitulate, it would've been exactly what everyone expected but they fought and scrapped and came through the other side. Thank god we don't have to endure another year of final round craziness.

Harmes BOG for me. He was so important and stood up when it counted.

Oliver not far behind, he can do things that no one else in the comp can do. How rare is it that that sort of quality plays for us?

Hannan totally justified his selection, kicked three and set up a few more.

Kent didn't do a huge amount but when it was his moment he took it with both hands.

Jones's second half was big, I understand the criticism as he's the captain but he was important to us in the second half and had a cool head.

Gawn's a beast, best ruckman in the comp and anyone who argues against that is an idiot.

There's more I want to say but I just want to savour the moment. This could be the making of this young side, we've answered the critics, we're in the finals and I think the rest of the teams should have every reason to not want to face us. Today was a final for us, and we won.

EDIT: I forgot to add Melksham. He has become one of our top 5 most important players. His delivery and finishing ability is THE BEST in our side.

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

    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
