    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

    • 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.
