    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.

    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

    Yes we have to lose by 150 points and port to win by 100

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

    They are the absolute worst.  They boo absolutely anything.

    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: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
