Being there in person from the Gold Coast is incredible. The atmosphere will live with me forever! Unreal

Completely against the run of the umpires.

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?

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.

    HIGHLIGHTS/LOWLIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Melbourne traveled across the continent to take on the Fremantle Dockers in sweltering conditions at Mandurah south of Perth in a game that delivered the club both its highlight and its lowlight in the first minute.  But first, let’s start by doing away with the usual cliches used in connection with the game. It was just a practice match and the result didn’t matter. Bad kicking is bad football. The game was played in severe heat, the swirly breeze played havoc with both teams resulting in

    TRAINING: Friday 28th February 2025

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you their observations from today's training session before the Demons head off to Perth for their final Practice Match. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning, not much wind, more than a couple of dozen spectators.  The players were up and about, boisterous and having fun. One of their last drills were three teams competing in a hard at it, handball game in a small area. Goody

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the
