    Brand is a marketing term, and meaningless, culture is another thing all together and we do not have it  Hardwick is a balanced person, Goody not so much.

    Brand also means game style.

    And no one is saying our culture is perfect.

    Don't put words into our mouths.

    I think we need to take as many positives out of todays game as possible. At least GWS have dethroned us to take out the most recent horrendous finals performance.

    THANK FUGGIN CHRISTMAS!

    But GWS the Frankenstein of the AFL PSEUDO EXPANSION!

    Lowest goals for a zillion years!!!

    Suck on that AFL...

    Enjoy ur night Polo player!

    GWS HORRENDOUS and loved every minute of it!

    Well done tiges.

    Hey Goody were u watching!??

    Marlon Pickett reminded me of Michael Long.
    Probably the way he held the ball with arms extended.
    First gamer did well.
    Lock him in for SC rookie next year.

    Do not tell me what to do. We do not have an AFL game style anyone respects so less talk about brand the better.

    The same Lily Mithen whose "...grandfather’s cousin is Laurie Mithen – a Melbourne great, who played in five premierships and was named in the club’s team of the century". 

    The same Lily Mithen who grew up in Geelong.

    The same Lily Mithen who turned down Geelong to play in their AFWL team to stick wtih the Demons.

    See wwsw post below.  Her dad was a Richmond Board member.

    Doubt she was going to wear a GWS scarf.

    yep...her dad!

     

    If most of us went to a non-demon GF we would probably support one of the teams and maybe even wear their colours - especially if a family member is involved with the club.  Didn't Jones where red and white when he watched little bro play his GF.

    She has stayed true to the demons when given a chance to leave.  She didn't.  Says it all really.

    Good to catch up today, @Return to Glory

    With Burgess on board, top 4 next year, mate. You gotta believe!

    Enjoy Tokyo. If you can, visit an old haunt of mine, Inokashira Park. A welcome oasis in the concrete jungle.

    Top 4 it is Ben E. You told me this season was an aberration and I'm willing, albeit reluctantly, to accept your wisdom on the matter. Burgess, yeah that's his name.  And Inokashira Park it is.

    If Marlon Pickett came to us he would have been just another inconsequential nobody.

    Anyone live near Swan St?

    Reading some of the celebrations got out of hand last night, flares, burning of cardboard signs mocking Toby Greene on rooftops, fans headbutting, punching and biting cops.

    We wouldn’t make it anywhere to celebrate if we won a flag soon, we’d pass out at the G from all the excitement.

    We need to analyse the success of Richmond, Geelong, Collingwood and Hawthorn and other big clubs with successful winning cultures.

    It took 37 years for Richmond to break it's Premiership drought. We are coming up to 55-56 years for our Premiership drought.

     

    We are only going to break the drought with lots of hard work, having good quality football people involved with our club and recruiting the right players.

    I am still keen in getting Mark "Choco" Williams involved at the Melbourne Football Club.

    Lots of money will help too.

    Not denying they're a big club but I reckon Richmond now has as many faux supporters as Hawthorn when they were travelling. And that's saying something.

    Hopefully GWS do a thorough review of the GF and change their game plan completely or they’ll end up in the bottom 4 next year

    Or they'll follow MFC's Baldrick plan of not reviewing a thrashing in a final at all!! That worked !!!

    Yes to Williams, but I dont think Goody would want a powerful figure like that.

    I'd have GWS above us for a decent first quarter and keeping the Tigers goalless if it werent for a dodgy free kick to Riewoldt and a very late Rioli goal. Our prelim would've been x10 as horrendous if it was a GF

    I don't think we would've got any junktime goals either. WCE would not have left anything in reserve for the following week and would've wanted to kick a half of celebratory goals.

    • 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.
