Had a read of their game day thread.
Enjoyed their shock and despair when when we went on the rampage in the 3rd.
They were daring to dream and Nek Minut .... It was over.
Poor fools.

I normally love basking in the schadenfreude of other supporters losing their minds at their team’s performance, but I think in this case I just want to enjoy the win and leave them in peace. Doesn’t feel right this time around.

    I dunno. I mean they were clearly better than us. But we didn’t put up a fight or any effort. We let them do what they wanted. But then apparently Geelong did too so maybe they’re simply too good. I dunno it feels like a decent team would just put a stop to the ease of their clearances. But it never happened.

    Who is this Tex again. Oh I remember he is the guy that has been suspended from the game.

    I just watched the 2nd quarter. The bulldogs are a team of fighters, but they really have a make do backline and only Naughton forward of the ball. Their midfield is their strength.

    Their game plan reminds me of under 12’s, and that second quarter proved it. Wait for the best player to get forward of the ball, and then kick it to him. Bont is a star, but they ask a massive amount of him. If he’s not dominating they look a 5-8 team.

    I admire their endeavour though. They are a pretty honest team in terms of effort.

    A few salty ones on there, and apparently the team singing after the game is a ‘slap in the face’ as they were singing the same song as the dogs?? 

    Ah well.

    I love how so many on Demonland whinged about the commentary being biased against the Dees, and the Dogs supporters were saying exactly the same, except they call it out as being biased against the Dogs.

    I think their comments are pretty balanced overall other than a few posters getting very riled up because we played the same post game song they did after the Port game. They reckon it was disrespectful or something. They need to chill

    It was nice to read the positive comments of our win. Especially about Pettracca being the most worthy Norm Smith medalist ever and we are the best team of the season. Poor Tom English coped a fair bit of heat though.

    I love these threads but be humble guys we know what it feels like to be thumped in a grand final. 

    We mercifully knew by quater time in both ours.

    They thought they were going to win early in the third until we played the best half of football in grand final history.

    When you smash a team by 12 goals you can do what ever you like, they should be ashamed how their team gave up in the last quarter, it  was Carlton like.

    I may have double-standards (at least I have some) in that I'd rip into Cats, Hawks, Pies & Bombers supporters. However would not want to ridicule/humiliate Bulldogs supporters.

    And for clarification - Roger the Demon Dog was a pre-game omen, not post-game ridicule.

    I always like reading the oppo take on the preview or post moretem.  However, I think this is not the time to gloat - we smashed these poor bastards into the dirt, they are in enough pain already.  We have been there for so long, I still feel shadows of their pain.  Time to NOT be like tigers supporters, but to follow the lead of the team and be better than that.  The Doggies did well all year, and were the second best team in it.  They clearly know that now.

    • Thank You Simon Goodwin

      As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

    • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

    • REPORT: West Coast

      The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.
