Almost. 95% there.

A flag at the G would make it 100%. People who attended in Perth would beg to differ.

Really hoping we’ve got another flag in us over the next 3-4 years before May and Gawn pack up. Hope we don’t do a West Coast and go backwards by the year or the Dogs who failed to even makes the finals for the next 2 years.

 

BANG! 2022

BANG! 2023

BANG! 2024

Footy life wise only 50%. Get me to the G, see our boys win a grand final live, get absolutely wasted with all my demon family down swan street and then my footy life will be 100% complete!

 

Pretty close but completion would be to attend the G and celebrate with the tribe. 

But this one is a dream or fantasy come true. There will be nothing like the fairytale of this one, with all the elation and emotion of a breakthrough flag. 

And not just a win but a thrashing, totally dismantling all 3 finals opponents. 

And sheer unadulterated pride. So much pride that my chest feels like bursting. And admiration, tons of it, for the players, coaches and staff. 

Truly momentous. 

 

On Saturday night I would have said yes, being there was one of the greatest experiences of my life. I never laughed and cried so much in one night.

But upon reflection it would not be fair for the loyal fans in Victoria who have attended more games and stuck through this club through thick and thin. We need to win it again simply for this reason.

Then life will be complete.

 


 Night time or interstate Grannies - don’t support them. Happy to still take them if we keep winning them

We are all different but for me I need to see it in person. It feels surreal to me. Maybe it hasn’t sunk in. But I want to out with 50K melb fans seeing the joy on their faces and watch the boys win it live. 

I am relieved and happy we won of course but I am no where near content or satisfied 

 

My partner of 8 years and her family are mad Essendon & Man United fans (luckily she's good looking). Between Liverpool winning the title 2 seasons ago and the Dees winning the premiership, they don't have anything on me anymore. I look forward to drinking her old man's grog on Christmas Day. Life nearly complete!


Things I've learnt since winning a premiership 48 hours ago.... I'm a greedy b*tch and I want MORE!

You were right all along Fork

Well played

That 3rd Quarter should set the bar for this Club for decades. That is the Standard to expect and aspire too

I hope the Boys Party Hard, they deserve that, and then come back ready to defend Top Spot

Man .... They put together the best season I've ever seen a Melbourne side play.
One for the ages.
Got a top class side with no holes all playing for each other and wanting the flag.
They just played the best game I've ever seen a Melbourne side play in the Prelim.
As far as I was concerned we were as red hot as you can be red hot.

 


 



 
 

Echoing others, I feel like a massive weight has lifted off my shoulders. A huge relief.

But also, pretty much instantly upon that awesome sight of Gawn and Goody lifting the cup (an image I am sure we have all tried to visualise over the years) I wanted another one. [censored]. We are premiers. Best team on the planet. More, thanks.

Yeah just like that, life is different and I will die a happy man!

BUT like others, as much as I enjoyed watching with my 2 young boys, I want to experience this feeling with other diehards at The G.

The emotion would be out of this world. We’ll get our chance too!

So my family organized our memberships for my older brother and his son to go. We had another two which we gave to my brothers’ best mate (and a mad Dees supporter) who has late stage pancreatic cancer along with his son. He won’t last past Christmas and I’m emotional that he and his son got to do this together. I have not even been able to post on the forum much beyond the like button, I have been so overcome with what this win means.

One at the G in front of us would complete my life and I can die happy. 
Saturday was the happiest day of my life… don’t tell my husband 😂

Love the name evolution Jaded (No More).

Yup. This is the closest I’ll get to having children, so yes.

Closer. Only need the whole family at the G for a flag and my footy life would be complete.

I was there in 1964. I can't wait another 57 years.

I feel the need to say this for those of you talking about doing it at the G. I was an AFL Member for 15 years. I went to a lot of grand finals as a neutral supporter, and one as a Demon (2000).

The grand final at the G is a funny one. There is a lot of neutrals and corporates there. It’s definitely not 50k passionate supporters from each team. More like 30k each - and 40k neutrals and corporates.

I often used to get annoyed with the crowd at the GF, because a lot of them seemed to not care, and not know the game well.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

  • CASEY: Richmond

    The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    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?

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    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.
