How about Geelong v Melbourne, 2015? ;) Get you chilled out significantly before watching us smash them next week.

I thought you would be spending the time off lobbying the club to change the red arrow thing the people run against on game day to a version of the Clarry Choo choo train!

I'm planning on watching us give the crows another belting up in Alice.

Just about the highlight of the year for me.

Footy free? Who said Footy free?

Fish Creek is gunning for their third straight flag in their fourth consecutive GF. On top of that Fishy Reserves and Under 18's also in the big dance along with our A, B & C Grade netballer's.

Big Saturday coming up for me. CARN CREEKERS!!!!

Hotter than Hell, Demons 1998 season, just fast forward to when we beat the Eagles in WA and then when we destroy Richmond in the last round, Adelaide first round of finals, St Kilda the following week.  The Richmond and Adelaide games are some of the most exciting football you will see.

Anyone that never saw the great David Schwarz in his pomp really should watch those 1994 finals, especially the one against Footscray, to see just how good "Nureyev!!" was.

 The one where G Lyon kicked a lazy 10?

I ran out of Foxtel IQ space because we won so many games this year!

The other day I had delete 2 of our wins so I punted the Carlton win and second of the GC wins.

Will get stuck into the North, Essendon, Adelaide (second game), West Coast and GWS wins.

My IQ is checkers too but I'm gonna go on a marathon on Friday. Might even watch a bit of the Hawthorn game from 2016 (that's never going to get deleted). I've got a bunch of leave days saved up so I'm all set to burn one on the Dees before heading out there with my mum and her partner for (hopefully) a night of a lifetime (well, of a dozen years at least).

Sounds awesome.

i still have a 1 hour package of that magical Hawks game that Fox Footy showed after that season. Pretty much showed every goal, but so enjoyable.

Same here, had 2% left of storage. Deleted the Brisbane game and the first GC win. I only kept the Carlton game because the camera caught me acting like a peanut after one of Milkshake’s goals.

Been watching the West Coast and GWS wins all week.

This has actually been the longest week ever. I cant believe I have to wait another bloody week to watch the dees pants those flogs

I found the Carlton game one of the more satisfying wins for the year. Mostly because of Jed Lamb carrying on like a pork chop and then getting put comprehensively back in his place.

The Gold Coast game was just depressing. They reminded me of some of the teams we put on the park from 2012-13.

1987 Elimination Final vs Nth Melb is the Go.

23 year finals drought broken a full MCG 70%+ MFC supporters.

Robbie flowers 1st final ever in his 270th game and he kicks a lazy 5 goals

Todd Viney, Warren Dean , Earl Spading's 1st year. Sean Wight repelling every attack 

Young Jimmy Styles looking like he barely know what he is doing but still kicking snags.

Ricky Jackson crumbing everything . 

And a lazy 118 ponit win , it's a melbourne love fest from the 1st bounce. and KB and Tim Lanes call is fantastic.

Thanks for posting that, it remains probably my favourite day at the footy.

However,  the commentators are neither Tim Lane nor Kevin Bartlett.  One of them is Bobby Skilton and the other I'm not sure.

Your right on the commentators. I hadn't watched the YouTube clips just going off memory of the old VHS tape I wore out. Like you one of my favourite days at the footy. I was 9 years old and the noise and excitement that day is unforgettable

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp. DEMONLAND'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS It’s going to be a scorcher today but I’m in the shade at Gosch’s Paddock ready to bring you some observations from the final session before the Preseason Training Camp next week.  Salem, Fritsch & Campbell are already on the track.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
