I for one haven’t moved on. 
Not planning to any time soon. 
❤️💙😁❤️💙

Totally with you WCW. The MFC supporters won’t be moving on for a few weeks/months yet.

As for everyone else, they can all they like, I don’t really care. Now is the time to be drinking in all the premiership glory and turn our attentions to 2022 in 2022. Still got 3 months of celebrating to go!

    Not for me, it’s ground hog day here. Just turned the tv on and on Fox Footy Grand Final replay 11.10 to go in the third qtr. I think I might watch it.

    They have to follow the media cycle - 17 other clubs hoping to win the off season (like we used to). I just have to flick on a replay (today I watched the r23 minor premiers game again) to bring me back to my happy place.  The trade and draft pundits can wet the bed as much as they like, they can NEVER take this away from me.

    I am happy to move on (to #14 in 22) anytime.

    What is trade period?  Let’s just ignore it. I’ve had too many years of hanging out for salvation.  

    Premiership Enlightenment is here and we can enjoy it. 

    Let the miserable pies and blues and Hawks and Roos and Saints and tigers and the others fight for scraps of footy stories and interest!!!

    Ya, even 93 down we can peel off a quick ton

    I recall a similar feeling of desolation after the 1964 flag. In those days, it was the Age, the Sun and the Herald and World of Sport. I think there was a photo of John Lord in the following Tuesday's Herald, and not much else.

    I thought the next premier after us was going to be one of Penrith or the Rabbitohs. The Government of NSW might beat them to it.

    (How would you like to be heading into a Grand Final at the same time as that hot mess in NSW?)

    This is one of the reasons why I became a lifetime subscriber to Demonland after the weekend. I have waited a lifetime to enjoy this, so I’ll come here and do it!

    Support the Demonland folks and get on board. Literally all of my favourite supporter moments of our premiership year have been on here. 

    You’ve echoed my sentiments exactly, THBT! It hasn’t even been a week yet. My fam and friends will probs only humour me for a little while longer but eventually they’ll kinda forget about it. But on Demonland, it’s always gonna be welcome subject matter. 
    PS: I truly hope your little nephew enjoyed the win. 💕

    And the 2022 season starts from scratch. Irrespective of 2021, it all starts a fresh with all clubs equal. And yep, the Dees will be a scalp that the enemy will be seeking.

    It's so hard to believe its nearly been a week and I am definitely not ready to move on. Not interested in trades, not even interested in other sports that I'm passionately into. Heck, I'm not even interested in talking to friends that don't have an interest in Melbourne right now haha. 

    Trade talk should have a moratorium for a week after the grand final. In fact it should never be talked about again.

    We seem to be disinterested in trades as a unit.

    I was surprised by the retention of Brown , Daw and Weed but giants do not grow on trees.

    Beanstalks perhaps.

    Very good move Biff at least for 2022.  They have value. Pleased they are on board. But we need to have the twos playing a full season.

    He loved the win, but will love it even more when all the ridiculous premiership merchandise we got him and his brother turns up. 10 year olds like cheeseboards right? 🤣

    The most important 17 minutes in the club's history as BT described it.

    Watched it twice today. Watch kossie. He tackles weightman and forces turnover to Bowey who kicks to Brayshaw. Then shepherds doggies no.5 to protect Trac when kicking his goal from the pocket.

    Only multiple viewing helps pick out these little gems.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit.
      Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.
