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.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
