No surprises here to my fellow MFCSS sufferers.

The team with the worst after the siren record is...? ?

? | Which AFL club is has had the most success in after the siren results in history?

The Dees have been in 12 games decided after the siren and have only won two, lost 9 and drawn 1. Additionally we have never kicked a goal after the siren to win a game.

    Classic stuff, we are 1 of 2 clubs to be beaten after the siren by a former player. At least it was The Wiz.

    I think we top another, longest time since last flag for current year.

    Was at that game and could see Neiter lining him up ready to lay a bone crunching tackle. Was right behind the goal at the City end and Wiz's kick off the boot was offline but veered left and sailed through.

    Trent Croad played one good game for Freo and this was it he kicked 7

    They really love delving deep into the stats these days.

    I can't wait for us to win the 'worst water pressure in the showers after the game' gong in a few months time.

    That one felt like a loss.

    I walked out of that game livid despite actually getting 4 points.

    I should've been doing cartwheels considering we'd go on to win a whopping 2 of the next 14 games.

    This stat doesn’t surprise me at all. 
     

    It should also be a $50 fine to anyone who even mouths the scenario of Jack Watts kicking one after the siren to beat us even if just a joke.

    1987 - managed to lose to North Melbourne during the season when Alistair Clarkson, in his first season kicked the winner after the siren.  Then the one no Demon will ever forget - the Prelim final.

    When Clarkson kicked that goal, the roar in the old Southern Stand at the G was deafening. Loudest roar I have ever heard. Will never forget.

    And yes, the Prelim brought us all to tears.

    It was nip and tuck all game Pennant. I remember the game shouldn’t have gotten to that point. Stephen Powell had a shocking miss late in the game. From memory it would have put us by a couple of kicks but he rushed the shot from 20m out and I think he missed the lot.

    For those that can see past the pay wall, how many times have we had the opportunity to win it after the siren? I'm sure it hasn't happened in the entire time I've followed the Dees, though we've had some close ones like with Maxy in 2018 ?.

    It doesn’t actually say how many times we’ve had the opportunity Pates. I can only think of 2. The game you speak of, where Hunt had a shot from about 70 out and the Weid miss last year as Fork ‘em mentions above.

    I can't remember Hunt's shot, I'd actually blocked out Weid's miss last year (though like Max not after the siren). Sam's miss there just typified how putrid and depressing our season really was.

    Even though there was only 17,108 in attendance?

    Must have been all North supporters and all in the top tier of the Southern Stand ?

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
