8goal Adelaide 1st qtr.
The 2nd and 3rd quarter was some of the best footy I'd ever seen us play till then.
Then we choked in the last.
A very Melbourne game.
Talk about roller coaster of emotions.
I was devo.

I'll always remember watching Trapper interviewed after the game.
He was the happiest loser I'd ever seen.

 


 

We didn’t actually choke…we were spent and had nothing left to give after quarters 2 and 3. We had players throwing up at 3/4 time from the effort given up to that point. 68 point turnaround from quarter time to just before 3/4 time. Will never forget the emotional roller coaster.

    Excuses, excuses on our own dung heap.

    Our draw against the Swans R1 2011 is currently on Foxtel. Bennell just kicked a ripper.

    The 2002 Semifinal vs Adelaide was probably the craziest game I've been to, even though we lost. Travis Johnstone and that 3rd quarter were something else.

    Will also go down as the night I got incredibly drunk in a pub in Adelaide post game (using a fake ID) and a Port fan tried hitting on me and I told him to [censored] off. Good times.

    Lol at deluded Port losers thinking they can hook up with classy Demon women.

    My memory of the 87 PF is not a good one and it’s one match Fox Footy play too much. 

    It's 88not 87.

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
