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!

Yeah this is one of the biggest takeaways over the last month+. We didn't play our best footy tonight, and some of our stars were a little under, but we still found a way to win, and win well. This is the making of a very dangerous team, for a very long time.

    When I was on the way to my local convenience store to buy some celebratory beers, I had a fleeting thought that we had achieved enough for the year.

    You know what? F&@@ that. As I've said before (when sober), we have such a huge  opportunity in front of us.

    Why not us?

    The Umpires tried damn hard to take it off us.  Amazing composure to pull control back out of their hands and run away with it. 

    Makes the win so much sweeter with flogs like nichols and stevic [censored] us over and over.

    Sending Geelong, then the filthy Hawks out 2 weeks in a row, to mark our return to finals. Seeing the delirious joy on the young faces in the crowd was almost as good as the result itself.

     

    Did anyone else notice Hibberd talking to Goodwin after the game? Loved the "2 more" he gave Goody as he walked away.

    These players are on a mission, and belief is high.

     

    The Dees are back.........

    It's telling ain't it? And they finished top 4, and managed to escape scrutiny.

    We just keep adding those top 8 scalps.

    All when it counted!

    Was thinking the same myself SWYL

    Have always whined to myself that we never seem to get the good run with injuries that other clubs get at finals time.

    Things are lining up for us in a way they havent for more than 5 decades.

    Time to make hay is now.

    In fact, we are only a game shy of winning as many finals as Geelong has in the last 7 years.

    That's off the top of my head, don't quote me on that.

    Can not comprehend we just eliminated the two teams that have bullied us for decades.

    Both teams have been responsible for some of our darkest days.   Well guess what, we are the bullies now.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
