Best player in the competition.

Most wins in a season since 1956. 

Defeated every side in the league (except the pies)

Can we keep it up?

Not yet, no.

2013 was better when Dean Terlich fished third in the B&F, it should have been our year we were just unlucky.

You could argue 2013 set up this year.


Not sure about best because I haven't been there for all of it but this is easily the most complete and true team effort teams I've seen in my time supporting this club.

I do argue that.

All part of the eight year plan.

Every club needs an eight year plan.

Sky is the limit with this group.  Youngest side to win a final since Bulldogs in 2016... just need to keep it together.

Easily 

I know it’s sad that we can’t be there to watch them, but hopefully this is the start of a successful era.

Now THERE'S a reference to the past that was unexpected. Dean Terlich! One of Paul Roos' first decisions was to delist him, from memory. Boy, have we come a fair way since those days.

Always thought Matt Jones was stiff to just miss out on a top three placing that year. Goes to show the amazing depth we had at the time.

Best side we have ever had. The premiership is for ours to lose. I have faith in Gawny and co.

Have been watching football closely since 1994 and this team would smash every one of teams that have taken the field in that time.

The biggest difference is not in the talent that takes the field, but in the gameplan and selflessness of the players.

This is also the first team I have seen in the red and blue that has defence as it’s primary strength.  94, 98, 2000, 2006 and 2018 all had an exciting and attacking gameplans and mentality.  This was gloriously entertaining and exciting to watch, but was ultimately deeply flawed under pressure against the top teams.

This team not only holds up against the top teams; it plays better against them.

 

 

Personally the Mark Neeld years were easier on my anxiety. I knew we would lose every week. There was no finals stress. 

From what I have seen possibly yes. I think in the midfiels and defence it is a yes but not the forward line. We have not won the flag yet.


Most capable and I would even say most lovable.

I really want them to win and it is even more than just wanting a Demon Premiership - I want these people to win. I believe they deserve it.

I agree with this!

Stress free football 2007 - 2016.

Two sides have made grand finals, win a gf and the answer is yes

Without waning to get ahead of ourselves, we were desperately unlucky that our 2 GF appearances were against possibly the two most dominant teams of their era playing hard brutal take no prisoner footy.  
Both 1988 and 2000 we  fell into the finals without ever being considered by most people a decent chance. 
2021 is very different.  We play as a team every week and if one has a downer, others step up.❤️💙❤️💙❤️💙

I also thought Matt Jones was integral in our 2013 campaign to try and get a 3 win season.

I think this is the best team I’ve seen since 1990 but it will be so Geelong to knock us out in the prelim.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
