A good day but sadly not the joy of the real day. Still we  won the premiership and that is the big one. IMO it was a well planned day that went off well. Gary was a good MC.

    Yep, reckon we could get away with jumping on the ground and posing with the boys today. Not as if MFC will stop it 😁

    I understand they need to hurry people through but man they were rude. They told me not to touch it, so I did just to spite them

    Really great day. Wonderfully organized by the club. I thought the presentation was wonderful. Great to have Jones and Jetta farewelled properly. Amazing to see Daniher so emotional. Fantastic for the players to have their kids and partners there too. 
    Well done to the club. This will never replace the joy of seeing this happen live, and hopefully we can experience that in 2020, but it was a wonderful experience nonetheless.

    Other than that great day. 

    I got a tad emotional when Neale got up. 

    Was also a great touch passing the cup to different generations before it hit the stage. The ox and wiz got a massive cheer

    Well done to all involved in organising that. What a great day.

    Garry as MC was a good choice. He is just a natural public speaker 

    Loved how they did the premiership cup relay like format. 

    Loved seeing former players there including McDonald, Schwarz, farmer, Grinter &any of the older legends.

    Can't help but think of Jim & how he would have enjoyed this.

    Good to see Todd Viney be part of the cup presentation & I hope he & jack get a photo of the cup together. 

    Good to hear Simon speak and can I just say how amazing Neale daniher is. Yes his speech has virtually gone & his hands have weakened but to walk up on stage on his own & stand there then continue to walk around the ground, just so good to see him there.

    And it was bloody good to be back at the G

    That was a great day. Obviously nothing would equal being at the game for the win but I feel like the season is now complete, we actually did win it and now it’s time to move on.

    i feel like the club did a great job, I certainly appreciate the effort they went to in putting this together.

     Looking forward to being at the G next year as we win another, Go Dees!

    Shed a few tears. Sang the song until my throat was raw. A great day. Let's hope we can be there for the real thing next year.

    The applause that The Rev got was outstanding. I think it would have gone on forever if Garry hadn't stepped in.

     

    Premiers!

    Wow, what a great turn out and what a good run sheet the club put on

    Was a great atmosphere, some really big cheers as we piled on the goals!

    Great to see all the past players, and the passing of the Cup. Big cheer for the Wizard! And he luv'd every bit of it.

    Cutting off the Metallica music too early was a little anticlimactic - I was getting so bumped ! Could have started with some Bells Bells too. That intro was when the emotion of the day geared up - our team, our club !

    A very enjoyable day, kids had a great time. Let’s do it again next year. Had to laugh when they put JJ’s name on the scoreboard as Jordan. Was waiting for one of the regulars here to correct them.

    Happy for all the fans that got to attend today, i was blessed to attend live here in Perth and still riding on the high of the win. I hope today on the rewatch those that missed out got to feel something close to what i did.

    One of the things i'll never forget about this premiership is the reaction i saw from my family, they were as excited as i was when we had won. They've all seen multiple premierships on the TV supporting the Eagles and Hawks, but never had the opportunity to attend a grand final before. They all said it was the best experience going to the footy they've ever had and they were all as emotional as me and all the Dee's fan sitting around me in the cheer squad when we blitzed the doggies.

    A wonderful day.

    My highlight was all the children decked out in red and blue.

    I think our club is in good hands for the next fifty years.

    Thanks to the MFC for going so far to make everyone feel involved.

    PS: Robbo and his band are rather good !

    Just got home from what was a great day. The club did a fantastic job to organise this for us & how good was the applause for Neil Daniher when he got up on the stage? Very emotional. Just loved Hibbo's mini run to boundary with the cup too.😁

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    • PREGAME: West Coast

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.
