    Umpires gifting them the momentum killing breaks. The boys still got to work. We are peaking at the right time

    The worst umpiring in a final in living memory wasn't enough to shake their determination.

    Destroying Hawthorn was strangely unfulfilling .

    We seek the grail.

    I'm just looking through the stats.  I can't believe how little ball we had.  Our mids seemed to be everywhere, but only three players went over 20 disposals.  The Hawks had more inside 50s as well.  The stats really don't look like us winning by 30+ points and kicking over 100 points.

    How good was Melkshams goal from 50 on the left foot to halt Hawthorns run.

    Completely against the run of the umpires.

    No passengers tonight, just 22 guys willing to put their heads and body on the line to win a contested ball. I have never in my 54 years supporting this club have seen and heard a Melbourne crowd like that.

    Just an incredible game. We were sat in front of the Hawks standing area - an arrogance of Hawks.

    Such great character in this team. As others have said, it is the future for these young guys that is so exciting.

    This season has surpassed expectations by some distance. To have made the finals was already a big tick, but to win two finals ... phenomenal. Team is maturing before our eyes.

    Now watch Goodwin win coach of the year. (toss up between him and Clarkson).

    Clayton Oliver was hilarious on Roaming Brian.   Totally took the [censored] out of BT.

    Felt so different at the ground to last week. Last week was emotional and a celebration, this was more like a difficult job at the coal face, done with minimum of fuss, and are rostered on for next week.

    Hawks: Top 4 Flogs.

    So happy that we had the honour of ending their year. What a night.

    So at the start of the season I think we all agreed that finals was the minimum acceptable result.  Pretty sure we're all happy with what we've achieved now.  Let's just hope we manage two more.

    Also, a bit of Spargo love please. Not big numbers, but all of them seem to be important numbers, and great to see him getting on the end of a couple.

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
