What can I say bring the grand final....

Just got home from the game and it was great.  Great team effort all night.  The best thing was sitting back and enjoying the last 1/5 qtrs as we had the game easily in hand. 

Go Dees...

    What this also actually showed is that the pre-finals bye has 100% favoured the lower teams within the finals. We finished top 4, we won the QF, and we earned the rest. The rest was clearly a factor tonight, I’m not saying it won it for us but it was a factor. I really hope the league looks at permanently getting rid of it.

    They looked hungry and on, right from the start.

    Great effort.

    Ok, so I'm guessing there are a handful of millennials on site. We might disagree on a few things, but let me tell you a couple of facts.

    I've been watching the Dees since the early 70's, and I have NEVER seen a team that play like this one. Maybe your Geelong/Brisbane/Hawthorn friends can tell you what it's like, but they simply cannot relay how it feels to support a team that we are currently following.

    I've followed losing teams before. This is not a losing team.

    This is a Premiership certainty.

    Normally a negative nancy, but yep, this is a walk-up start to a flag.

    Dress up your kids in the red and blue

    place your bets

    place your missus/mr on standby.

    It is two weeks until our list writes its names into AFL history.

     

    Port and the Doggy/doggy/doggy/woof woof woofs are playing for second place.

    Never seen a better Prelim performance than I witnessed tonight.

    We are a shoo-in

     

    Ittttttssssss aaaaaaaaaahhhh, Grand Old Flag

    An exceptionally Smart move by Goody bringing Maysie off very early after halftime.

    He did not need to extend himself at all which my works in his favour.

    Is Goodwin the right guy…

    As much as we all want instantaneous results, it isn't realistic. Goody has had a plan and stuck to it. Was a star player, knew what was required to win a flag and built a game plan to win flags. Love your work Goody!!

    In honour of the club’s sponsor I’ve knocked back a fair few Furphy’s! They taste bloody good I tell ya what. 

    Now I do have to say a couple of notes:

    I’m gutted (like so many here) that we aren’t seeing this live, it’s a cruel twist of fate but the players are playing for us even on the other side of the country. 

    There are going to be those who miss out that have deserved to be a part of it. Jonesy is the obvious one, Melksham is extremely unlikely, and of course poor Tommo who was in tears after the game. It’s heartbreaking, but I love all of you guys. 

    On a positive, despite it not being in Melbourne I have to say thank you to the WA public for getting behind the Dees. They loved cheering for Max Gawn and I have no doubt that he was putting on a show for them. Great atmosphere, not gonna beat the G on GF day but nothing does. All aboard the Melbourne train!

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
