    Tell him no, we're out of form and soft as butter.

    I really need to ask the question. When was the last time Hannan played 2 good games in a row? I don’t think he even played 2 good quarters in a row when he played for us.

    I'm wondering why as well. Pace seems to have picked up as well.

    They are certainly due for a choke, they've got all the pressure really we've got a massive out if we lose.

    If we win it's the greatest flag ever.

    If they win, they beat that team that copped a raw deal.

    These guys have surprised me this year with their new found mettle; I'm waiting for the real Demons to appear.

     

    Love the inflated confidence and feeling hard done by. They bottomed out at the wrong time - chucked the game against Port to guarantee top 4 and then gifted by the umpires their semi final win against the Lions…talk about a raw deal lol give me a break.

    Can’t see us choking from here and if anything the opposite is more likely…

    When Tom Hafey coached the Tigers his game plan was to kick it to Royce Hart.

    When asked about his plan B he replied "Kick it to Royce Hart".

    I’ve got a bit of a soft spot for the Doggies and wouldn’t want to tease them for losing but it’s what they’re saying at St. Kilda that amuses me -

    dragit wrote in 2014 before St Kilda drafted Paddy McCartin at #1 ahead of Christian Petracca:

    Don't think I will ever recover if we take McCartin and he flops while Petracca becomes the gun that everybody is predicting.

    We don't want to risk taking a raging bull mid/fwd with a hip problem, but we'll take the chance on an overweight, diabetic & injury prone full forward that is 3 inches shorter than the other key forwards coming through the system.

    After tonight’s game Trixilver wrote:

    It's so creepy seeing Alan Richardson in a melbourne kit hugging Petracca with a norm smith around his neck. It was like a fever dream watching him rip that final apart.

    While I’m deliriously happy, a part of me feels a bit sad for the Doggies. I lived out that way before moving back to Japan, and have very fond memories of it.

    If it was Hawthorn (and especially Jeffrey K), I wouldn’t give a crap. Doggies supporters are generally good sorts and as salt of the earth as you can get. I’m not going to dance on their grave.

    Fully agree as a former westie dweller (living next door to someone who thought Luke Darcy was God), but on the other hand ... get flucked Doggies!

    I remember when in 1987 we won the last game of the season at the Footscray Oval to get into the finals for the first time in 23 years and the joy of singing the clubs theme song.

    Now we get to sing it again but after the premiership has been won.

    This clown had a pain in the [censored] twice this week, one was a tattoo and the other was the MFC. The easy fix would be to get the 21 changed to 16.

    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.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
