Well we’ve finally done it!

after years of conjecture, pontification, debate and both doubt and hope we are the Premiers!!!!!

Thats right , the best team in the AFL, the cup is ours and gawny  is All Australian captain and premiership  captain and Trac is a Norm Smith medalist. 
We the long suffering have our flag and I shall sleep well tonight and wake up in the morning with a feeling that no one can ever take away from me.

Go the mighty Dees!!!

 
 

I don't give a fig about dynasties, power-clubs, curses, MFCSS, how great Bontempelli is, 186, Neeld, "the benefits of losing", game analysis, mark of the year, goal of the year, recruiting, the trade period, the cricket, Covid, vaccinations, the rise of China, the decline of the US, renewable energy, or any other subject matter.

I am sitting in a quiet lounge room drinking scotch knowing this one simple thing. MFC are 2021 Premiers. 

And to all those Essendon supporters after the 2000 Grand Final - eat my shorts! You are carp and we are the best. 

WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS!!!!

I am so happy.

This team has really helped me get through this godawful year.

Imagine that.  A consistent and dependable Melbourne team, in my lifetime.

❤️💙


Solid win, bank it and then move onto next week. 

In all seriousness. OOOOOHHHHHHHH MYYYYYYYYYY GODDDDDDDDDDDDDD! WE'REEEEEE THE PREMIERSSSSSS!

'ahem'

Some notes from the game

- Petracca. What more can you say? A modern day Demon superstar

- For not the first time this year, our comeback in the third quarter can be attributed to one major change: Playing Jackson in the ruck. This kid was an absolute monster tonight and allowed Maxy to take one of the Dog's key defenders. 

- Fritsch had an absolute shocker of a second quarter but kickstarted our demolition job in the third. Just has that uncanny knack of finding space. An absolute nightmare matchup for opposition defenders. Most goals in a Grand Final since Darren Jarman in 1997! Unreal!

Can we take a moment to acknowledge Jake Bowey? This kid was playing in his SEVENTH AFL match and had 8 touches at 100% efficiency by quarter time. Was a big factor in our great start. Was playing a Weightman for a good portion of the game as well who had no influence whatsoever.

- Bittersweet feeling for James Jordon who sadly (or in some aspects, fortunately) wasn't able to get on the ground tonight as the medical sub. Nethertheless, he still receives his premiership medal and played a key role in getting us here tonight.

- May and Lever were arguably both down on their usual impact but both toiled hard. Neither Naughton or Schache were influential tonight so they played their roles just fine.

- Salem oozes class with whatever he does. I know we tied him down for five years earlier in the season, but is there any chance we can extend that? 

More to come, maybe, dunno, feel like running around the block naked wearing only my Demon scarf before I do anything else.

We did it!

It's surreal but two observations. 

How good was Luke Jackson!

This team was amazingly fit. Kudos to those responsible!

What ended up happening with Darren Burgess' contract? Is he definitely leaving us for Adelaide next season? He has obviously been huge...

What are words for.

Best team all year, and showed the football world on the biggest stage.

 

GO DEMONS!!!

Outanding performance and proved excellence in recovery from the efforts of the 'notably second best' contenders for the flag. Off their game expetation, with exhaustion, limited resolve or capacity, and a missing skilset that drives Premiership contention. As I said earlier, Geelong were one step away from game time;; however, they remain one setp ahead of the Doggies in terms of threats to the MFC .Farken Nice outcome of course; stunning exhsibition of the respone to '... how the helll did they do that? ... from the second Quarter. Great team effort  - but was it all that terribyly difficult?? Class won, full stop.

That is just unbelievable stuff .... but they have done similar things this year - come from behind v Brisbane, round 23 v Old Cats ....never say die.

A very long time since I have believed and trusted a Demon team so much.

Edited by monoccular

12:15 and I finally make it to demonland. Last few hours have been responding to messages from from all the people who know I love the Dees. Even halfway through the third I still thought we'd win, the mental resilience of this team is the complete opposite of what it once was. No need to go early on this and should just enjoy the moment, but I reckon this is the beginning of a DYNASTY!

Good call.  Seemed to avoid all the cameras and interviews after the game but a great story and a massive contribution since he came into the team.  Such poise for someone so young.

OD you old curmudgeon. How the hell are you feeling now?


Absolutely awesome, Demons we’re brilliant, I’ve a glow of happiness, and look forward to celebrating at the G next year about this time!!

I thought we were gone for all money 5 mins into the third qtr. The greatest second half I’ve ever seen. It still hasn’t sunk in yet. It’s unbelievable ❤️💙

Any word from Ron Barassi, our last premiership captain?  He would be a proud man tonight.

8 players aged 19-21 are now premiership players

extraordinary

16 premiership players today are 25 or under.  Salem is 26.  Viney 27.  Gawn at 29 will play another 5 years now we have LJ.  It’s going to be an exciting time to be a dees supporter over the next 4-5 years.

100 points to 7 after the turnaround which must be some sort of record

Were they just teasing?

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

  • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
