As I said earlier, felt some butterflies in the stomach when I knew we wouldn't get rolled.

Tears come for a flag.

No, no tears. But when they hit the front, it felt fairly familiar. When Kent was lining up, I was saying Kenter, you can be a hero if you put this through ... go Kenter.... GO KENTER!!!!! GO DEMONS!!!!!!!!!

My ceiling has holes in it. But no tears. Too old and grizzled for tears.

Tears came when Kent's bomb went through and only stopped about 5 minutes ago.

Yes tears.  I admit it.  But then it is not the first time I have cried watching the eagles.  The last time was round 23 last year.  Better tears this time!

When LeCras kicked his goal, I walked over the road and hit golf balls. Walked back in to see Kent seal it. Couldn't believe it, tears in my eyes, got ready to sing the song and of course, Foxtel showed nothing after the game.

I was working and watching the game and my hands were shaking so much I went for a walk in the rain thinking if we won I will tape it on Foxtel to see what I missed. Thought I had timed it well but got home with 3 mins to go and just jumped around the house cheering. Yes there were tears in the eyes. Very happy that the coaches actually got the selections right this week. Run, run, run.

I did - and so did my boy. I came to Australia for the 2006 season, my eight year old has never seen them in finals. He sobbed and I told him that this was why you stick with your team, even through all the bad times!

When Melksham kicked that goal I cried. I was in disbelief we held up after they hit the lead and held firm.

I just couldn’t bare another close loss to cost us finals. This past month has killed me emotionally and mentally. 

The shed of tears was a gigantic sigh of relief and enjoyment of what’s to come. I can finally enjoy one weekend of football knowing we are playing finals.

Yep 100% had a tear. It wasn’t until Snake’s last goal. Kent’s goal was still a bit early for me. We’ve Melbourne’d it from there before so I wasn’t sold at that time.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
