The love for that fat man baby Ablett from the commentators. What a joke. 

Yes he’s been a superstar but he was crap last night. He isn’t a champion everytime he lays a tackle. Seriously!

    We’ve done well. This is now a free hit. Very proud of what we’ve achieved and beating the Cats who are one of our bogey sides is a big deal.

    Just watched Jetta on this

    http://www.afl.com.au/stats/stats-pro#/discover/CD_I281280/Jetta-Neville

    If anyone has seen a better 7 possession game in defence...well, 

    And his AFL ratings are below, which really make a mockery of what is useful in providing value to a side...

    Our forward pressure was insane. We will go a long way to winning next week if we replicate that performance AND nail those scoring opportunities. 

    We must convert our scoring opportunities next week. We won’t win kicking 1 goal 10 against the Dorks and we won’t get as many opportunities as last night.

    If it goes Cats, Hawks, Pies, Tigers, that will be pretty much the perfect 4 opponents.

     Breaking through the 2 teams who have given us the most pain through our dark years, then a preliminary final vs our ancient foe. Then a GF vs the defending champions. You couldn't script that better, and there's no 4 teams I'd like to beat more than them if we could do it.

    One week at a time though… 

    And it would mean we play each final at the MCG rather than having to go to Perth.

    Hopefully the AFL takes note of what happens when you give the dees a Friday night game in Melbourne.

    You get 91K fans and a cracking game.

    take note again next week afl, before working the fixture for next year.

    I think Gawny had a crack about Melbourne playing two Friday nights in a row during his interview with Eddie on Fox last night.

    Jordan Lewis just said on 3AW, the crowd last night was in the top 3 crowds he’s ever played in front of. He said the noise and support for us was phenomenal.

    No more clapping (polite applause) allowed !!!   only yell and scream for the mighty Dees.

     

    Make Noise... and Raise Hell Demons.

    nice hat, uncle

    An understandable mistake dc. That fellow is a very stylish dresser. I suspect we share the same tailor and fashion consultant.

    I’m just taking this Finals stuff one week at a time, but I cannot help but get a little emotional/ Happy about all this. Thoughts and dreams about just hopefully our time is coming and about us rejoiceing in hopefully a drought breaker together. 

    Never had this feeling before at all in my sort life barracking for the Dees... here’s to hoping something maybe brewing very soon!

    A lot of cheap late boat-anchor bumps etc.  A pale image of his former self.

    • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

      The Demons come face to face with St. Kilda for the second time this season for their return clash at Marvel Stadium on Sunday. Who comes in and who goes out?
