    Shows how important Melksham is to this side.

    Hibbered good, Hannan great,Weed 100% holds his spot, did some really good things.

    Hooray for finals!!!

    Only question is who comes in for Spargo?

    It might sound silly but I thought West Coast hitting the front as ‘early’ as they did was helpful. It refocused and galvanised us. So incredibly proud of all of the players. A fantastic effort over there. 

    Shout out to the recruiting staff. What did we give up for Hibberd & Melksham? Where were Tom McDonald,  Hannan, Harmes, Jetta and Fritsch drafted? 

    What a day. Let’s all get to the G next week and bring back a home final.

    Me too, we were looking to save our lead, I thought that would end in tears, we play better attacking and just prayed we could do it.

    Given the number of outs we had and that it was interstate against a top rated side, was that our best win for the year so far??  I realise WC had plenty out as well but....

    He wasted a lot of opportunities and he needs to actually go for marks instead of pushing his opponent under the ball, but he is far more dynamic and offers more than Hogan has in recent weeks.

    We got a good run from the Umpires I thought considering it was over there. 

    Yeah I thought the maggots were very 'accomodating' today, surprisingly.

    Still a few dodgy calls/non calls, but far few that I expected given what was at stake.

    We did really well to keep the crowd quiet for most of the game.

    Shout out to Harmes who has really stepped it up lately.

    Still can't believe the resurrection of Gus, it's beautiful. 

    So gutsy, CARN DEES.

    JKH would be the only alternative... not sure he adds alot more to justify the switch though.  Spargo showed patches of some solid play during the 3rd i thought and appears to be slowly learning a little more each week.  Not quick but work rate is up there also.

    i knew Melksham was a huge part of that Forward Line. 

    The Weid, does he play next week?

    Playing for a home final next weekend, huge stakes now

     

    You Beauty.

    Can we all make a pact not to ever be a bunch of flogs like the West Coast fans?

    Let's save our booing for when we are actually getting dusted up by the umps.

    Got caught out having to come on without being able to put it on. Order was restored after a minute of play

    Well done Dees..... flying back to Oz next week and will be coming to the MCG to watch the GWS game with my fellow Dees supporters.

    Let's go into this final series with momentum and belief.

    Go Dees

    Umpires good, coaches played no funny buggers and as much as I’m critical of the old guys, they stood up in the last 10mims and had too. Great club effort all round

    Actually the difference is 357 points - so the odds are incredibly long!

    Can't agree more, I haven't heard a bigger batch of whiners. We got some lucky ones, they got some lucky ones, I would say (for once) it was actually a very evenly umpired game. 

    They're never happy unless they've got 15 more free kicks than the traveling teams.

    If Freo beat the filth and Sydney and Hawthorn don't draw (so one of them stays on 14 wins), then our percentage would see us slide into 4th.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
