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

    This is a Granny that will be remembered by all

    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

    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 Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.
