First off, I’m in shock and I couldn’t be prouder. Secondly, I couldn’t watch Max’s kick, I had to wait for my parents reaction. Thirdly, **** you cats, sucked in!!!!!

I will say this, I think the cats came into that final quarter thinking already ahead to next week and where they might play it. That is their fault, and I bet you the Goody and Max told the players to fight. 

So proud, not going to sleep tonight. We are top of the ****ing ladder, I of course want us to win the premiership but this is proof that we are the best team this year!

    Blessed are the Dees, for they can beat anyone from anywhere.

    Such an emotional experience, but then I've always loved roller-coasters.

    Go Dees!

    I wasn't able to watch live, but recorded and am watching now.

    We are 44 down with 7 mins left in the 3rd.

    I gather it would be worth my while to stick it out?  😎😁

    And the blue one.

    Goody might be Morphius. Which makes Clarry, Neo

    I've changed my mind, can we play the GF at the Cattery? Hahahaha.

    Actually might not be all that bad an idea if the Cats are not in it.

    Clayton Oliver is surely the best midfielder this club has ever had

    After getting smashed in the second quarter he absolutely set the standard for us to pull that back in the last quarter

    What a superstar

    I'm bloody emotional. 

    Take a bow Simon Goodwin. This is absolutely on you in being able to motivate the players to get back into the game.

    To our leaders, Max, Lever, Oliver, Petracca were all immense! Was really strong throughout the game that they simply needed to stand up and they did.

    Season 2 starts now. By Monday morning my attention turns straight to Brisbane.

    Soak it up lads. We're bloody minor premiers since 1964 💙❤

    Everyone has already covered how great the win was, but the deliberate out of bounds was screwed us all night the ones paid against and the ones not paid for

    Ho hum, yet another regulation win.  :D

    First time in our long history that we've won a game with a kick after the siren and some form of poetic justice served given how Max missed a similar match-winning chance against Geelong a couple of years ago.

    Yep, Karma’s a girl dog!

    Any chance of handballing the Powerball numbers too? You called this at 44 points down! Nostradamus eat you heart out......

    When lever had the ball I said straight away kick it to max. He was in the perfect position. It was a good kick.

    My god the belief this team has is unbelievable.

    I wrote them off. Turned it off after the 7th goal in a row, was getting MFCSS from the 2018 Eagles Prelim I saw in Perth.

    Watched the last 10mins, turned it off at 37seconds when Brayshaw was given deliberate. Got out of bed - punched the couch and checked the scores. Couldn’t understand how Gawn could have goaled. Still in disbelief. 

    No one will ever do what we did and go 44 points down at Kardinia Park and win. We’ve seen history today and not just the first minor premiership since 64’. 

    Special thanks to Brad Close for the 50m penalty and to big Max for aging my comments about us being put in a spliff. We put the Cats in a spliff. Bring on the Lions!

    I'm incredibly grateful for every call that went against us. For we would not have had that ending.

    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!

    We can now lay 186 to rest for ever.

    Just one curse left. The curse of Norm Smith.

    Seriously what a game what a win and what a round of footy. That is easily the best win I can remember. When Clayton Oliver plays like that and kicks goals there are not many players better than him in the competition love him.

    • 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.

      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.
