Maybe.  But we know Fritsch holds the record set this year for the fastest 3 goals by an individual player - approx 95 seconds against the Crows.

Fritsch kicked 3 goals against Adelaide in 90 seconds...

Those were the last 3 of his brilliant 7 goals that day! They were in the 4th quarter Dees v Crows at an empty MCG:

01:27 Fritsch

00:46 Fritsch

00:00 Fritsch

That's 3 goals in 87 seconds. Amazing! The last two were set shots which ate up the clock.

The 3 goals in 32 seconds in the GF remains the fastest ever, so far...

With another odd goalkicking record in mind now - Tom McDonald must be the first person ever to kick a goal after the siren in a grand final from 45 meters out while 15 other guys were in a dry-humping pile about 5 meters to his left! :laugh:

 

 

I’m surprised the umpire didn’t hold up play and ask them to leave the protected area… Razor would have 😂

Shouldn’t walk on their grave - we, more than anyone, know the feeling

There was a game at the G in the 80s or early 90s when Richmond conceded a fifty metre penalty before the bounce and we goaled from the free.

Then they did it again as soon as the ball got back to the centre and we scored another goal from the subsequent free..

They were 2 goals down and the ball hadn't been bounced yet! Steve O'Dwyer was in the ruck that day.

I think that was Bartlett’s first game as coach

I doubt we will ever watch 4 more pivotal games to turn the fortunes of a club in our lifetime.

Those were 4 performances of a club destined to achieve greatness. 

I doubted it, but looking back, it was always meant to be ours! 

Burgo got us primed to be at the peak of our game at the perfect time.

yep.. me too. It didn’t and doesn’t stop the joy of winning but i felt fr them. The doggies in the last 50 years or so have a history v similar to ours. Poor club, threats of extinction, regularly [censored]. I can’t hate them. 

It occurred to me last night how little real pain this season has had . The least in living memory. yes there was 4 losses but none that hurt thaaat much. The loss to the doggies was the only one I can think of that stung me fr days and made me doubt.  Adelaide by a point (with [censored] umpiring) was another one,  but it was our first loss and we were still top of the ladder so it was easy to move on from. 

We’ve all had to eat so much [censored] over so many years it’s totally joyous to have not had to do so much this year,. But,  I am sparing a thought fr them also. 

 

The only one we got towelled up was Collingwood in Sydney

Could have been a 4th. Petracca was out the front of the restart/ball up. Bontempelli "just" made the tackle.

And again Jacksons work outta the ruck on that bounce.
In a year or 2 he's gonna be incredible.

  • 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.

  • 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.
