We were all over them except a 15 minute patch of give up clearance, goal, give up clearance, goal (repeat).

What mental resilience, bonding and belief that creates. Oliver, Lever and Gawn huge.

Now we reset. What matters starts now.

    Unbelievable, thank you MFC, what a game. The emotions I and my family feel for this club and even moreso through Covid lockdown you have given us so much.

    Monkey off the back, to win the minor premiership in Geelong where the demolition occurred and for our caption to win the game after the siren it was the best script.

    Job half done, let's bring the same intensity and string 3 games together like that.

    Well done MFC. I love our club!

    Oliver has the 3 votes and the Brownlow and the AFLCA for sure now. 

    Not sure about the Brownlow given the vagaries of its polling, but he HAS to have sewn up the AFLCA. Bont surely not polling this week.  Clarry was a monster tonight.

    I was positive as I could be at half time and again at 3/4 time. But you post at the last break that we would make up a 6 goal deficit took being positive to the next level. Think it’s the post I have enjoyed the most since I joined demonland. Well done sir

     

    I second that. Great work @Mr Steve.

    Has any team come from 44 points down at Geelong and win? Not for many years if at all.

    But I had hope late in the third quarter.

    Only happened once before.

    Why did I stop watching in the second quarter!

    Clayton Oliver is an absolute champion. If he wins the brownlow it will have been well and truly deserved.

    Nothing better than beating Geelong in this way.

    I turned it off too... it was too painful... but luckily I turned it back on at 3 quarter time!!!

    It’s either 3 or 2 votes. Bont won’t have polled last 3 weeks.

    I started brewing beer at 10am so I had my first beer at 10am, I’m now on the whisky and I’m shaking like a leaf. Seriously what a finish. And scarily we could play so much better but I’m loving the end and bring on the heart attack finals!

    Clarry really does will the ball into his hands.  When we need him to step up he seems to find a way to get hold of it.  I've been pretty critical of his goal-kicking, but he's still winning us games even if he doesn't hit the goals as often as he should.  I've loved his last few weeks.

    A lot a people need to take back their angry, hate filled posts

    This 100%. 

    It actually made me disgusted the stuff I saw at HT. There is venting, but then there is just, overexaggerated awful comments. 

    I hope they take no enjoyment out of tonight, or our finals campaign.

    We were , jumping up and down, shouting , crying, you name it!

    That was one of the the best Captains  performances I’ve ever seen by Maxy.

    That last quarter was gargantuan.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
