What a wonderful outcome in what has been a difficult year for so many.

For me it is players such as Harmes and ANB who epitomise the improvement in this team not to mention the three amigos from the West who joined us in 2020.

I will enjoy re-watching each game of 2021 over the off season

    I’m watching the replay. The last minute of the 3rd quarter is as close to absolute pandemonium as you’ll ever see on a football field. It was literally ridiculous. I’m pretty sure i’ll never see anything like that again.

    I’m so glad I got to see us play like that in my lifetime. 

    This is such a good feeling.

    I’d take this one premiership over the 4 we would have won as the Melbourne Hawks. Demons forever

    Just watch the replay (again) now, and Daisy is an absolute godsend as a commentator. She gives insight into the game that is so far above that of her contemporaries, and that makes the watching it on TV infinitely better.

    BT in the third quarter:

    ‘I reckon the Demons need 2 of the next 3 goals’.

    The Demons:

    ‘How about 16 of the next 17?’

    He was also crapping on that Bont pretty much had the Norm Smith in the bag.

    Who was the unlucky bugger who was under Max?

    That would be Adam Tomlinson 💪🏽💪🏽

    I highly recommend watching the replay over the live recording. Ad free. Check out the look in Petracca's eyes after he kicks that dribbler near the end of the third. He looks like he could run through a brick wall and rip the head off a buffalo. Channel 7 cuts to an ad and you completely miss it

    I like the idea of debating who to take with our first pick at number 18 ... 😆

    We won the Premiership after missing the final the previous year. Surely that’s rare. Does anyone know when that last happened?

    Happens regularly. Bulldogs, Richmond and now us.

    Hi mate, joined to say thank you for sharing our stuff on here all season. Really appreciate you doing so - we are unlike other agencies that have marketing or advertising budgets, so people like you sharing and getting the word out and possibly having people sign up is worth so much to us.

    Hope you all watch the game over and over until you know the commentary word-for-word. What a win. Congrats, and thanks.

    Angus Brayshaw’s third quarter gets bettter every time I watch it.

    The one I have noticed more and more each time is Sparrow.

    His inside 50 work was incredible.

    The kid is a beast and his foot skills have surprised the siht out of me.

    In the 3rd quarter in about the last 30 seconds we kicked 3 goals, wow just wow.

    Also is Bont going to get cited for that high hit on Clarrie.

    Yeah, I don't doubt Clarry's hit from Bontempelli took a bit out of him. Said so at the time. Also said he was likely to get off the chain at some point and sure enough he worked his way back into the game like the champion that he is.

    And don't forget Viney. I've been a long time critic, but he's a brilliant finals player.

    Watching the replay Viney was huge in the middle when the turnaround started

    Yeah fair enough, I was a bit harsh.

    I actually like the Dogs. Just can't stand the "poor us" narrative. They are too good a side to go with this garbage. They should be proud, and ditch the us against the world stuff.

    And don't feel sorry for them. They will be back at the top end next year also.

    That’s Bevo mate, he had backs against the wall theme all throughout the finals and it served them pretty well.

    I don’t feel sorry for any supporters, I empathise with many after what we’ve been through.

    Our supporters are and have always been a class act. Let’s be powerful, humble and stay classy

    • 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?

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
