VFL Park got so damn loud when Melbourne struck back. Apart the early part this was a great and exciting game. Also West Coast should have successfully kicked that final shot at goal. We were a little lucky.

    What date is this account, WJ? Was it in the footy season? (The origins of the “Going to the Snow” narrative?)

    As mentioned on another thread I've been collecting old games for about 15 years and have a decent collection. I plan on uploading to my YouTube channel gradually, I've just put up the replay of the round 1 1988 game against the Tigers.

    I'll try and add videos to this thread but if you subscribe to my channel it should be easier to be updated as the videos go up.

    Cheers doc, Round 1 1988 at the ‘G v Tigers. It was an unseasonably hot opener mid-30’s. So were the Demons against the once great but now fading Richmond. So many talented footballers on the park for MFC, truly a halcyon day at the footy.

    I have a distinct feeling that Frosty Miller trialled for The Dees around this time.

    Great win Vs Doggies it was as fast and furious Rodney would have deeply regretted that late hit on Terry Wallace’s jaw. Haunted him to the end of his career.🥲

    Thanks Dr. Gonzo we were on a roll, kicking really let us down against bummers, ‘88 was a great year right up until the granny.

    What surprised me most about this story, which is void of sensationalism and strong on factual re-telling, is that Jill Beaconsfield was described as the "hero" of the story, rather than the "heroine".

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

    • NON-MFC: Round 02

      The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

      As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

    • PREGAME: Fremantle

      After a stunning victory over the Saints in the first round of the Season the Demons head over to Perth to take on the Dockers who choked in their first match against the Cats. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.

    • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

      Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
