Just as a side note, are the Bulldogs and their fans the greatest over-celebrators in the history of the game. They are labelling it as a “historic win” and Bevo said it was “monumental”. They’ve posted black and white images of Bont and Bevo embracing in the change rooms. You’ve got Weightman interviewing after the game saying they can win it all. Yep, he actually said that. For a team that is one loss away from missing the eight, what an absurd thing to say. You’d think they’d learn

    What upsets me, is seeing sides like Carlton and Collingwood, kicking inside forward 50, to guys leading and making space and the kicks going right to them.

    Skill, practice or Coaching, or all three?

    Yeh that was an absolute joke, i am not sure whats was better, that or the bump ball that was paid a mark.

    I readily accept errors get made in games, but consistent one officiating is hard to swallow.

    What was that even about? What rule was that? Not being facetious - genuinely interested.

    Something to do with having to wait for the wave of the flag before going into the square or along those lines I think?

    Yeah over celebrating for sure, probably think it atones for the grand final loss, they won't make finals this year.

    A lot of players are below par due to nagging injuries  - Gawn, Oliver, Langdon, Lever, Rivers, Salem, Brown and probably Jackson. I think this explains our current position and I doubt it will be corrected any time soon. My expectations for the rest of the year are quite low.

    How funny was Hibberd. Like when you know someone has lost the plot and you just slowly back away, without objection

    Make no mistake. They absolutely hate us. They beat us in the corresponding game this round last year and felt they had the wood over us. Then 3 goals up mid way through the 3rd quarter in a grand final and they could taste it. Followed by the most brutal 30 minutes of football anyone has ever seen to destroy them.

    Yeah, they can’t stand us. And I love it.

    They play Cats in Mordor then Freo so good luck with that! Doubt they can get in on 12 wins

    Bulldogs fans are an interesting lot. 
    A larger collection of mullets I haven’t seen since 1983. 
    They were carrying on like pork chops last night until you reminded them what happened in last year’s grand final and how far they’ve fallen since.

    First time I have witnessed that rule. Are we sure it exists?

    I just hope this puts MFC well and truly under the radar now. I hope the media completely writes us off. There's plenty of other sexy teams to talk about now.

    Every time one of our players went near it last night the Bulldogs everywhere behind us yelled out "[censored] you, Pickett!", "you're a [censored] Gawn" etc. They really do hate us. I hate them too, but I'd forgotten I hated them until last night, simply because we won the important game that mattered last year and shut them up.

    Interestingly it is all about aexy football at the moment. Offense is clearly beating up on defences at the moment.

    Afl will be happy

    You're right, it's written into folklore now. My father is a Collingwood fan and still can't get 1970 out of his head. It's the price you pay, we're not here to be liked.

    M.Lloyd. “They didn’t lose after R17 last year, where as this year they have lost R17, and R19”

    Pretty easy to dig up last years fixture and see that we lost R19 Matthew. 

    Other than that, interesting and good points.

    Just wondering did anyone else think Frisch was a bit stiff not to be paid a mark from behind Khamis in the first quarter? Looked like two clean grabs & would have been a certain goal.

    Yes was wanting to see the replay but they didn't show it.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back at the MCG and have a massive challenge ahead of them as they take on Premiership contender the Gold Coast Suns. What do you want to see from the Dees today?

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.
