Here it is. Look at his eyes 😤

 

 

Although Kaysiah didnt impact the score last night , that was one of pressure acts (pushing the doggies player ) that led to goals

How’s the head going Demonlanders?
Every bit of vision you watch over the coming days will most likely cause you to shed some tears. It’s probably been mentioned but seeing Kozzie trying to hand his medal to Neville Jetta on the boundary celebration got to me big time. 
 

The media focus has been on Jones but Gee Nev has been a true leader at the club.

I sent Nev a message Saturday around lunchtime thanking him for getting us to this position and all the joy he's given us watching him play with so much courage and skill through those dark years.

He sent me back a message at 2.30 in the morning saying "I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did"

It was a wonderful gesture by Kysiah to try and give home his medal.

So good to see the whole squad involved throughout the whole final series. The way past players, families and supporters have been acknowledged along the way

What a wonderful inclusive club we have.

Nev was one of Roosy favourites

After 6 decades of humiliation, we have finally rediscovered the secret to being a power club. The Demons are about to explode I suspect.

At least we will soon discover if all of the stories about our latent support are true.

If you don't join up now you never will.


So, what the hell do I wish for when I blow out all of those candles on the birthday cake this year?

been making the same wish for more years than I can remember and the cake angles finally answered.

I know I could make the same wish but I may need to make the wish to another entity.

thank you Birthday Cake angles.

Couldnt agree more.

Saw Goody with Nev on the replay this afternoon and it hit me how much work he had put in when we weren't at the top. Those guys are culture builders. Gave everything, always.

Time to replay my post of now more than half a dozen pages ago:

I'm sure all you Postgame posters are still reading, or will be soon with a couple of hours sleep under your belts, so BIG HUGS of thanks and shared joy to all of you!

To which I must add, my thanks to everyone who thanked all the people and groups, in places and functions far and wide, that needed to be acknowledged and thanked. I feel they did so on my behalf as well as theirs.

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

Great call. He had the absolute eye of the tiger at that point, and knew he would be the one to win us the match.

What a legendary performance.

After thinking we were a goal away from defeat last night the way at which we dismantled a serious quality side through sheer will and aggression in 19 minutes had me speechless until this morning. The back half of the third quarter was the most beautifully chaotic football anyone could hope to witness in any game, let alone in the premiership quarter for the actual premiership. Could not be prouder of the way we have built to this moment this season. Not just in the way we have played but the way the whole club has carried themselves on and off the field. No more words. Just so proud.

Just an observation but every interview that I have seen with Christian Petracca he has had the Norm Smith tucked away. Only the Premiership medal on display. Wants it to be about the team not about him. Thats my take on it and I like it.

Was lucky enough to be at the cup presentation in Perth this morning with Garry Lyon introducing each player. First thing he said when about Trac was mentioning he'd immediately removed his Norm Smith medal because the win was a group achievement. 


Gus' speaking to Lyon in the rooms afterwards is just brilliant.

The passion and love of the jumper and the club is real.

The sincerity of these guys surprised me.

will admit to slightly watery eyes watching that.

 


Sure it has been said by others, but I can't stop watching the final 60 secs of the 3rd quarter - arguably the greatest 60 seconds in our club's history

Gawny at the Market Grounds still wearing his fill kit, including boots whilst drinking and partying is one of the best things I’ve ever seen.

Interestingly, interview with Lyon on Fox...

Steven May said he did have scans and physios didn't share results, was worse than let on. I suspected we were keeping up appearances

Also, Stef Martin was clearly worst on ground in the Dogs prelim win, and the centre bounce was where we turned the game in the 3rd. A lot of people pointed out he was underdone.

That may be underrating Luke Jackson’s amazing contribution in that turnaround period.  His centre ruck work was absolutely awesome and his second efforts just unprecedented.  
Sign him up now for the next decade.

Gus was fantastic tonight.

Very proud of a player who has now become a new favorite 

❤️ 💙 and soul player super impressive performance particularly when the bullies were running rampant. Absolute clutch mark, kick and goal in the team’s brilliant 3rd quarter revival. Plus being a top bloke. Always been a stayer IMM.

I could only watch the first 5 minutes; I checked the half time score, noted we'd stuffed up by kicking so many points and went to Demonland to catch some observations. I noted that yours was full of optimism. Dunno if you was takin the pee, but when I watched the replay today, I also felt that at half time the lads had stemmed the flow and were on the way back. Your prediction was spot on: kudos.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

  • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
