I was travelling to Koh Samui that day. By the time i got to my Hotel, we had just won. 
Cold Beers went down beautifully watching some replays

    I was at Flemington. Won on the ponies and surrounded by Hawks supporters watching the last 15 minutes. What a day!

    What a great 10 minutes of footy, completely owned them. Ripper of a game.

    I believe this game produced this one handed beauty of a pickup from Clarry (while we're reminiscing)

     

    I'll be delighted if we kick 17 goals 7 this Sunday....

    Dom Tyson played a blinder from memory.  That was the beginning of the end of the quest for 4 in a row.

    Watching that 10 min clip you could be mistaken for believing the club would have to be insane to get rid of Watts, Stretch, Tyson, Bugg, Pedo and OMac.

    Billy Stretch was excellent too.

    I remember distinctly tearing up a bit on the train ride home from Nagoya.?
    For newer Demonlanders, defeating either Hawthorn or Geelong was considered an impossible pipe dream back in the day. I felt quite surreal. It had been so long since it had even seemed credulous that we could beat them. Sure, we had gotten within 3 goals or so a few times. But their bigger bodies and greater experience made sure they had the situation well in hand whenever we put up a challenge. ?

    The dark day were over with that win.    We had not beaten them in a decade or more, and they were the reigning premiers.   Good times, good times.

    The day the 10 year fog lifted. 

    A glorious day well inside my top 10 days (in 45 years) as a Dees supporter.

    That was the also the debut game for Sam Weiderman. During the second quarter Oliver won a centre clearance that resulted in a Brayshaw goal on the run that I remember well.

    Who's to say I wasn't doing both? Surges of indecipherable emotion can cause unorthodox reactions.

    Probably the day that stuck in Jordan Lewis’s head later that year when Clarko asked would he consider moving to the Suns

    It was a Foxtel broadcast, not on free-to-air, and we watched it on my son's phone, on hands and knees - the phone was propped up against the skirting board (beats me!). When the Watts-dink-to-Tyson-Tyson-snap happened I nearly put my fist through the floor. And it was a concrete slab...

    Possibly the greatest isolated fraction of non-goal-related pure football brilliance I've ever seen.

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

      Gather Round is upon us and the Demons face off against the Bombers who are on a 17 game losing streak. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Casey Demons secured their first win of the season by the narrow margin of four points against the Box Hill Hawks at Casey Fields on Easter Sunday morning.

    • POSTGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
