Bowey deniers in disarray 

What about the trade Viney brigade?

 

Lol anyone watching Channel 7 right now?

Tom Browne is such a [censored]. Talking about the importance of asking Chris Scott at the press conference about going to Carlton.

Edit: then Hamish McLachlan was like "what the [censored] Tom".

Gee wizz didn't see that coming. Well done football department. I want one more but this is a night to have some pride in this football club!

Credit to Joel Selwoods comments in the rooms too. To be fair Geelong have been an amazingly consistent team for 15 years and their ability to put themselves in a position to compete every year is something I'd love us to emulate. 

What did he say?

He said we beat them in pretty much evert facet of the game.

He then said he knows people will say they keep failing in finals but he'd rather be at a club which keeps trying to make it than one which falls down the ladder to rebuild.

Incredible how much difference good player development makes - Bowey exemplifies this.

Yes. We should always remember those words

Always strive to make finals….

What a win! What a 3rd quarter! I said it before and I'll say it again, should bump my thread. Gawn is the best player I have seen. Epic performance tonight. Love the club this is a golden era. Let's win the premiership and finally get rid of the curse.


The Parfitt injury was absolutely massive for them. It wouldn't have changed the result by any means, but he's about their only decent stoppage defender and we absolutely waltzed the ball out of the stoppage all night.

What a great game to watch. Not often you get to celebrate a preliminary final halfway through the second quarter. It shows the difference between playing beautiful football during the season and practicing playing finals football all season. When the pressure went up we were unflustered. We knew what to do.

Young "David" Bowey can take his choice between a long career as a footy player, or as a pop star. that's how good he is.

On cloud 9, just left the ground found a place for a glass of Shiraz and contemplate 2 weeks time. Go Dees

I might have a heart attack if we win with a last minute goal again. 

Did anybody get banished to the seconds on the Game Day thread?

Just that he is proud to be part of a club that is continually competing and fighting to be there at the pointy end...despite being outclassed tonight. Dislike Geelong but fair play to them for sustained competitiveness over the last 30 years. Simply beaten by a better team tonight.

So proud ❤️💙.

I have never in my 51 years seen a better demons team than this one.

Agree except it’s 66 years. Cannot remember a more dominant performance.  55-64 was pretty good though, but to be fair I was young and not taking much notice of the footy.

Go Dees

Let’s now sit back and watch Port and the Dogs beat each other senseless and cop a shedload of injuries. I hope it’s a really hard and close fought game as then the eventual winner will be looking at our slaughter of Geelong and psych themselves out of it. Our winning margin will be the cause of many nightmares over the next couple of weeks.

I just read they traded a second round draft pick for Higgins.

Who then couldn't get into their 22 in the finals and played medi-sub.

Yep this is just cherry on top stuff. Big drop coming for them that will last a number of years.

Perfect summary, AoB. The planning and ability for these guys to have a ‘finals gear’ just can’t be understated. This team is now doing exactly what they were designed to do. And they’re doing it for all of us, which they’ve made wonderfully clear. It’s a beautiful thing in a beautiful game.

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • POSTGAME: Geelong

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
