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. 

 

No one has done that before in a GF

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?

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

Congrats OD enjoy the spoils of long awaited victory. How good will our next draft get together be?🏆

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

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo.
