Post Match Discussion - Round 23

[Bitter but optimistic 22,220]

All those who carped about Melbourne not beating top 8 eight sides can now officially GAGF.  We are worthy finalists and will do some damage. Bye bye cats next week.

Also all the Jones haters can GAGF - top game from the Captain.

What happened to Tyson?

Gawn kicked the ball of the ground and collected some part his arm (close to his wrist I think). Think it’s a fracture of some sort.

Harmes did an outstanding job on Kelly. 

Harmes was fantastic. Smashed Kelly and collected 29 disposals and a goal himself (Kelly with 19 touches). 

[tiers 2,829]

Just think. We are a St Kilda debacle away from third.

On the other hand, 3 of the 4 teams that smashed us are in the four so perhaps were are where we deserve to be.

We learnt from 2017 that percentage counts and to score as much as possible and deny them easy goals.

Today we learnt that to be a top team, we cannot concede losses to inferior teams.

We took the game on with nothing to lose.

Thats when we play at our best. Quick, clean, aggressive footy.

Loved it.

Bring on the Cats!

[bringbackthebiff 654]

Just played uninhibited footy. Nice ? 

[Damo 3,344]

Hey we beat a top 8 team too!

BT on seven said that we have the second highest % which is the first time since 1964 we have achieved this  

We all know what happened in 1964. 

Go u MIGHTY DEMONS. 

[KingDingAling 3,752]

Harmes is seriously good. Has had a great month of football. Very damaging player. Pops up at the right times. Everything we need leading into finals. Also, we play 110% without Hogan in the side. If we hold onto Jesse I hope we play him in defense next year. We look a far better side without him in the forward line.

[Beetle 4,601]

Salem is mint. Most underated player in our side.

[In Harmes Way 7,741]

GWS looked like they didn’t want to play us again in the finals with some of their efforts in the 3rd qtr.

[What 18,810]

Terrible for Tyson and Kent...   Tyson still might get up for the final but Kent is done... the bloke can not take a  trick.

The Lord intervened.

[DemonOX 8,790]

Lets not forget we played in hot conditions last week and came back from Perth and still WON.

Roosy summed it best during the week when he compared him to Jarrad McVeigh in his prime.  He can be a general across half back for us for years to come.

[In Harmes Way 7,741]

What’s the prognosis with Kent?

[Monocology 1,109]

With 2 rotating off bench WE ARE SO HOT RIGHT NOW!

[brendan 3,434]

Our pressure was enormous GWS Were craping themselves very fumbly 

[Lucifers Hero 39,610]

Triple M just reported that players sent coaches and staff out of the meeting room.  Suspect some sort of pact was being hatched!

Players are really owning this - absolutely beautiful!

Tyson: injured but wasteful 

 

[bringbackthebiff 654]

Very noticeable at the ground how loud the Melbourne players were when they were setting up their defence. Very team oriented footy.
