Recommended Posts

So many great images from our season.

 
Max at the Cattery

Langdon’s smile

Trac’s stare

Fritta’s jumper tug

Kossie after a snap

Goodie and Max centre stage at Optus

Team celebration 

I rate this most iconic - I recall the instant 57 years despair morphed into spine tingling disbelief

“That bloke.” The Dees guy in the crowd. He epitomised pretty much every Demons fan at that moment in time.

Of the countless pics to choose from for home-screen wallpaper I chose this one because of Ed’s smile…

I have been enjoying the Ashes but nothing now compares to winning a flag. Footy 22 cant come quick enough.

So true.

I guess other fans have had the pleasure of a cup many times. That we have all hung in there for almost six decades speaks volumes about us and we shouldn't take any flack about being fair weather fans or off to the snow.

Dunstall is fine, he actually has a clue and isn't too bad about Melbourne. It's Dermie that's the moron and doesn't have a nice thing to say about us

Dunstall is widely credited as being the guy behind the scenes who set up the Hawks most recent dynasty, he knows his footy dislike him or not.

That is a photo of the greatest moment in Melbourne's history.

The prelim moment where Viney hugs and lifts up Max is also pretty darn iconic, but I'm with you on the Clarry photo, it's the moment where we ripped the heart out of Bulldogs supporters and the look in Clarry's eyes and on his face says this is our premiership from here on.

Thanks for these.  Even as kids they are well developed.

And the wine bottle....anyone know what the wine is ?

Maybe it’s not wine, Jontee. Maybe it’s the salty tears of coaches and staff of the other 17 clubs. 😭

I fired  up youtube on my big telly and it immediately started showing the GF, 3rd quarter, couple of minutes before Bonts goal.  Is that good service or what? (How did it know)

Gee Caleb made some poor decisions, did the dogs abandon their game plan?

Watching last quarter of R23, with commentary for Tom Sparrow's kick at goal, last quarter, for the lead: "If he can nail this it'll be the biggest of his career, by some margin".

Wouldn't have lasted long...

Watched the same bit ysterday also.

I noticed that for Sparrow to be in the clear to kick his 3rd 1/4 goal his opponent left him to attack the ball carrier Oliver coming out of the center.

Still pinching myself. Life has brought no other pride and joy than what it did following Bailey Smiths fumble on Sept. 25th, 2021

Same here! Still can’t bloody believe it. I reckon I could pinch myself ‘til I’m black and blue all over and it still won’t fully register that WE WON THE PREMIERSHIP!!!

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t
