    Enjoyed this one from the couch. I was doubly happy when the game ended. Firstly because we won. Secondly because I wouldn’t have to keep hearing Bruce pronounce Salem as “Sahlum”. 

    Interesting that every man and his dog was texting me tonght compared to hardly any last week. They can sense we’re coming ??

    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.

    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. 

    felt like that on the couch too!

    We have become a serious football team.  We can win classy, we can win ugly.  We can meet a challenge head on, wrest control and go away with it.  We have a steely self-belief that will never be denied!  I love you Demons!

    Channel seven showing the highlights to the tune of Hells Bells.  Love it. 

    I notice there's more idiotic noise about Oliver going down easily to get a free, but nobody seems to be talking about Sicily hurling himself out of marking contests the moment he feels contact.  I wonder why that is?

    The two free kicks in the last quarter for taking the legs were disgusting. Not sure I have seen worse free kicks in a final ever.

    Just keep on rolling boys...we are on our way!

    In spite of many mistakes we lead for 90% of the game. Won it and the Hawks can collect their mothballs and commiserate with those other has beens down by Corio bay

    I cant believe we are one game away from the chance to break a 53 year old drought. My litmus was to m ake the 8. We were asking if Goody was the right man. The media said a few weeks ago we have not beaten anyone. So sweet to beat this mob.

    Giddy up we may go all the way.

    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.

    Best game I've been 2 all year. Will put us in great stead 4 Preliminary. We kept them goalless in the second,  went away from them in the 3rd & withstood their challenge in the final quarter. Great resolve. Tom McD is a gun so to is Brayshaw & Viney wills himself 2 contest after contest.I thought umpires gave them an armchair ride.

    I need a bigger bath...

    Still angry about the umpires.

    Huge love for the team, nothing was given for free, those blokes have earned it. Votes are super hard. Loved Nev/Hibbered/Frost/Omac, our defence tonight was huge. and Tmac/Weid ice water in their veins.

    Viney is a beast (some of the stuff he did in a he last quarter was awesome) and Harmes kept Tom Mitchell to 24 disposals which is a massive win. 

    Well done boys.

    100% and his 50m goal was pivotal!

    Interestingly in the presser - Goodwin was asked about the head free's - he dispatched the controversy to the boundary, by saying from where he sat - they looked like there was contact below the knees.

    Charm offensive for the umpires...

    Tell me WCE are not $hitting themselves, best travelling team is coming to them with nothing to lose and that loves their shape of ground. Perth will be quiet after 2 x 90k crowds.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
