Think of all those Essendon supporters who were barracking for us

    I'm just laughing now. Seriously forget about that final 15 minutes. We went over to Perth playing to get our top spot back and we did it. 

    Lets get back to Melbourne and beat Adelaide.

    Actually rate the win very highly, struggling at half time, came out and dominated the 3rd quarter like a good side. 8 free kicks to 1 in the last quarter doesn't lie plus the play on call to Spargo , the free against May for just contesting the mark, good win.

    Luckily we don’t play the bottom four in finals.

    I am glad we got the 4 points but just cannot believe what I have seen. A game put on hold because of lightning ? Maybe I am just too old fashioned. We had them by the balls and that ridiculous break gave them a chance which theu came close to taking.

    Thank the lord we held on there. The end of that game can eat an absolute bag. You wouldn’t read about this [censored]. 

    Glad we hung on but a rubbish effort after break .....  2 minutes away from a shocking defeat   Cannot sleep I am angry with that last effort   as for umpires    boo to the max

    Good:

    - Bowey (my goodness he’s already special)

    - ANB in game 100

    - Jackson Rising Star

    - Brown being the dominant target and holding marks

    - Melksham playing his role

    - Team effort overall

     

    Bad: 

    - Goal kicking (will cost us a final)

    - Umpiring

    - Players not being smart enough to know umpires are hot on them

    - Lightning

    - West Coast supporters

    - Brian Taylor

    Ah Melbourne FC, keeping the cardiac ward at the Alfred hospital well stocked for the past 150 years.

    But thankyou for top 4 and the double chance - much appreciated.

    That was an excruciating finish. My heart was pounding

    Got there just. Thats all that matters. Huge games from Nibbler, Melks, Dogga and Bowey is a ripper.

    Hope WCE fall out of the 8. Their supporters are the worst

    Top spot baby. Forget the last fifteen minute farce (8 frees to 1 btw). We have had a day on a plane, smashed gold coast, jumped on another plane for 3 hours , spent 7 days in quarentine and beat that mob on their home deck.

    Proud of the boys!!

    The finish was crazy.

    Before that though, a lot to like.

    How good were our youth: Jackson, Bowey, Rivers, Jordon all played really great games.

    Brown was so good early, helped us get the early lead and gave us a chop out repeatedly. ANB's forward pressure was immense and he got 2 goals to go with it. Thought Langdon's first half was back to his best but the game wasn't down his wing enough after half time. Harmes improved on last week, Melksham stood up when needed too. Backline was good without being amazing and we still only conceded 18 scoring shots.

    Still want TMac straight back into the forward line to make sure we have two marking options, particularly when Fritsch struggles like he did tonight. And I'm not going to comment on vandenBerg's silly free kicks against.

    Hope Hunt's injury isn't too bad, but we've gone into Perth with no Viney, no Tomlinson, no TMac, Hunt off in the first quarter, then a crazy half hour lightning break in the fourth quarter with West Coast's season on the line, and we've come away with the win which locks in top 4. It's huge. I'm happy.

    We won despite the weather, despite the umpiring, despite the lightning break. Back to the top of the ladder where we belong. Go DEES!

    Top 4 locked away, an away win in hostile conditions against West Coast, top of the table with two games to go. Can’t get much better than that!

    The players gave our fans a bloody big fright but we got the job done!

    • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

      It’s Game Day and the Demons have made the long trip west to take on Fremantle tonight at Optus Stadium. Can Melbourne make it two from two to start the season, and what are you hoping to see from the Dees under the lights in Perth?

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

    • NON-MFC: Round 02

      The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

      As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

      After a stunning victory over the Saints in the first round of the Season the Demons head over to Perth to take on the Dockers who choked in their first match against the Cats. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.
