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: 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?

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
