    If he plays like he did in the finals, then Jesse will be a distant memory.

    Big year for Sam 35/50 goals.

    Like any Dees fan will never forget that Elim Final and the super performance from all and Sam's bog.

    Breakout last few games in 2018.

    Interesting. I was thinking of Steven May as Hogan's 'replacement', as he was the main part of the trade deal. I had expected the Weid to continue his improvement in the seniors regardless of who he played alongside.

    Vs Geelong last year:

    12 Kicks, 12 handballs, 7 marks, 3 goals, 4 tackles...

    He's going to be a gun...

    I'm really hoping for a forward line of TMac, Weid and Hunt next year.

    I think that was just about my favourite piece of footage all year.

    Lol at some of the comments in the clip. Some never miss a chance to pay out on Ablett. I do like the one about looking for a cheapie over the top rather than providing a shepherd for Danger.

    Scary to think what Weid may become.

    Bub, don't you remember that bloke with the bad body language who used to play in the forward line.

    No, not the blonde haired guy, the other one.

    Fantastic moment in a huge game.  Well done Sam.

    The surfy skulks away and the bald has-been tries but fails for a cheap shot.

    A pivotal moment for the game, the team and the individual.  GO WEEDS (would never have thought, 50 years ago, that I would ever ever say that)

    Ablett’s little hip and shoulder after the event. Very Useful....

    It was a glorious night. Pity we didn’t score more goals. The boys sure worked hard enough

    Love how the Weed goes about it.  no fanfare, no talk, just head down work hard. his agility and aggression improved last year.

    still a lot to work on but the signs are good.

    It sums up where Geelong are at, and what the inclusion on Ablett has done to their team.

    There's two ways of looking at Ablett in that clip.  The first being that he was really in the perfect position for the "cheap" one over the top, but Danger was too slow to acknowledge it, and tried to do too much.  Had he (Danger) got the hands over to Ablett, he was in a world of space.  But, it was Danger's immediate response to do the individual thing that saw him get crunched.

    That said, had Ablett put that shepherd on, Danger was also in a world of space (he would've blown Nibbler away).  Ablett's selfishness cost them as well.

    While a lot of what happened on the night can be put down to us just dominating the Cats from the first second, that passage of play goes right to the core of what's wrong with Geelong in general.  It's bloody marvellous.

    Back on topic, Sammy's just a nice boy who can play bloody good footy.  My love for him grows by the minute.

    A great night indeed SWYL. A crowd of 90,000 with at least 60,000 Dees fans in attendance.

    Yes. We can be a big powerful Club again with sustainable Hard Work

    to see the MCG full making so much noise that night was a beautiful thing and we should strive to be there every year

    It is our home ?

    No doubt we're starting to mobilise but we're a hell of along way off being a power club.
    That game was 12yrs of pent up frustration released and we were all there to blow the roof of our own dung heap right off.

    Yep. And a lot of them were not Members, but the opportunity is there, with hard work. 

    If 40,000 rolled up we would be in trouble, but that didn’t happen

    I’m going to be very unpopular here and say i’m not convinced.

    He is good at ground level but in the air I don’t see it.

    Even in that final the marks he took fell to him and he didn’t take them cleanly.

    i’m hoping it’s a strength thing and he proves me wrong with a greater upper body.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
