    I watched it with my younger brother. We were literally holding each other, trembling, the last minute. In all seriousness, it’s taken me so long to post because we’ve only just let go. My heart is still pounding. 

    What a win! It’s usually games like this we throw away. So many games I’ve seen the past few years where we were in front and the other team caught up and managed to steal a win. Its usually the opponents who steal a win like that. Thought it was over when GC kicked that goal, but for once, we stood up where it counted and never gave up. One of the best finishes I’ve ever seen to what was a mostly average game. Great to see Jones back in firm.

    Now we’re ordering pizza and going to have celebration drinks.

    Go Dees!

    Well I must be the only one who’s stoked. Yes the game was a bucket of pus, but I wasn’t expecting anything but. We’re not contenders this year, we knew that. 

    I still like winning above all else, and we did. I jumped through the roof at the end as if it mattered.

    BOLLOCKS, IM RIGHT THERE WITH YOU NASHER!!!!  ???? MY WIFE THINKS IVE LOST IT, MY KIDS THINK IM GOD. Absolutely loving that win.

    Can’t wait to watch the 4 quarter replay of this classic. If you haven’t seen it, do yourself a favour and stick hot pins up your taint instead. 

     

    Both Gold Coast’s supporters will be fuming.

    Hahaha my 5yo and 3yo girls and I went completely troppo after both Hore’s goal and Tmacs point, sh it test game ever but also one of the most incredible last couple of minutes I’ve ever seen.

    Whinge and moan all you like people but right now I’m loving life and loving the opportunity of having this moment with my kids!!!

    GO YOU GOOD THINGS!!! 

    Onya coach, me too. I’m honestly shocked to jump on to Demonland to a funeral-like response, I thought I’d be sharing the love with fellow Dees fans. Guess I should know better by now.

    I had head in hands at 47s and was jumping off my couch at the siren.

    Lots of negativity around here - but you name a team that has won a game down by 6pts with 47s left in the last few years.

    Gawn was huge in that last 47s, as was Oliver, Viney, Harmes and sort of Tmac.

    Shelve the 4pts, take the lessons learnt and re-launch for next week against an out-of-form West Coast.

    Ok I have not seen a second of this game just been on the computer following the scores. When I saw us a goal down I thought we'd lost it then I thought a draw and then saw we got a point. So I see the score and Im happy we got the 4 points. 

    But obviously it was a terrible game. And the injuries we got don't sound good. 

    did you listen to the call dees ?

    absolutely stoked with the four points, for once we are winning the close ones.

    I acknowledge that there is still a lot to work on, forward fifty entries especially however there is still lots to like. 

    everyone getting stuck in to certain players, performance, effort etc. give it a break! lets enjoy the win and come back even better next week. 

    love this club, Go Dees!

    Never happy!

    Rubbish spectacle but we came away with 4 points and a thrilling finish. Take that any day of the week, a win is a win.

    Lmao

    Comical.

    Farcical really. Call me a grinch, but that level of joy inside the coaches box and on the field is nauseating. No way did we deserve to win that.

    Hope this doesn’t keep the scrutiny off our backs.

    Has a team ever had more inside 50s than their score?

    We should just pepper torps towards the goal from outside 50 and rely on repeat entry points

    Who reckons Mcgovern is at half mast a week out thinking of all those interceptions?

    That was revolting. Disgusting. Awful. Painful. Horrible. Offensive. And we got 4 points. 

    Season is still over. West Coast next week. Lol

    Gold Coast did give them a run for their money, though. You never know

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?
