Yes yes new season and all, but whenever I see the cup, I am just so damn proud of this club. The pride is off the scale (and will forever remain so) ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Yes I concur. I even went back last Sunday for a second hold and photos as I was not happy with the photos of myself on the first occasion.

What the Cup symbolises is pride, excellence in achievement, and a journey by all supporters like no other which means so much after such a long time. 

Our players and staff under the circumstances are immortals who will be even prouder for the history making journey that they  have undertaken.

Achieved in an utterly disorganised season by the pandemic our Cup will even grow in stature by the football public along with history and evolvement of time.

In seasons gone by, this would have been someone else's club like Hawthorn or Richmond that greeted the touring international premership team at the MCG and basked in the glory of being the respective champions.

...but now it's us and it's our turn.  Still kinda doesn't feel real, but it is true and it's a bloody magnificent feeling.

GO THE MIGHTY DEMONS!!!

Well said. I never thought I'd be so enamoured with the object itself, just expected it to feel like a mere symbol, a fun photo op and that's it. But when I touched it, there was something electric about it. Probably was more impactful than otherwise in making it feel real since so much of the experience was virtual to that point.

Oh it’s still a symbol…………………..of my life’s pursuit.

I feel for those whose dream it was to live to see a Melbourne premiership, yet were unable to. I am sooooo fortunate and grateful that I got to, and so I celebrate it for them as well.

The minor premiers win the Dr McLelland trophy which, apparently, is "a perpetual shield that is kept at AFL House" (see Wikipedia)

Hmm. Did you unplug it first? That might explain it.


Tigers break all-time record; ‘Embarrassing’ Eagles face AFL world’s wrath: 3-2-1

Nice that another club is stepping up to the plate to take the mantle from us.

 

We play the Eagles in another few week and I'd love for us to have a crack at beating 186.  The game is at our happy hunting ground of Optus Stadium, so hopefully that helps.  I don't the Optus will be ever the cauldron of doom of the Eagles or Freo again for our current playing group.

Here is a record I am not proud of - havent been to a game since the Cairns disaster.  Easily the longest break from watching MFC in my life.

I think this thread about embarrassing records has reached its use by date. Time for something more positive. What records do we now hold that are ones we can be proud of? 

Jake Bowey tops the list of players who never played in a loss with 10. The next best, held be a few people is 9.

Is the 12 goals in a row the best ever in a Grand Final?

Has any team ever kicked three goals in less than a minute of game time?

Please add to the list. Let's enjoy our true magnificence! 

Now 14. Let's not get blase about this. That's 5 more than the next best.


I think there are two records being confused here.

The record that Bowey holds is the most number of career games without a single loss.

The other record is most games before first loss, as shown in the table above.  Bowey is four wins behind that particular record at the moment.

This is the more impressive of the two. Whereas in the other record a player can have experienced a loss and then followed that up with a long run of wins, Jake may rack up the same number of wins without ever knowing what it’s like to lose.  
PS: Middle para (above), instead of ‘most’ you mean ‘highest’ right? Soz DS, but this is a rare occasion where someone gets to point out an error of yours. I ain’t about to let that go begging! 😆

Now 15. He's also now the holder of the record for current players of wins before his first loss, having overtaken Ben McEvoy who started with 14 wins before a loss. 

Just a reminder that the overall record of wins before first loss is 19 held by Albert Lauder of Collingwood. There are no players with 18; two with 17 (Kelvn Moore of Hawthorn and and Alby Ingleman of Carlton), none on 16 and three others with him on 15. So, he's equal third on that list at the moment.

  • Welcome to Demonland: Steven King

    The Melbourne Football Club has selected a new coach for the 2026 season appointing Geelong Football Club assistant coach Steven King to the head role.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
