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.😁

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
