The Demons made a massive statement for the rest of the competition tonight and silenced the doubters defeating the Brisbane Lions by 1 point in a Top 4 clash in a blockbuster match at the MCG.

[Vitamin Dee 903]

[McQueen 17,867]

This is such an amazing game - Aussie rules. It is so hard to play. It is so hard to score. It is so hard to maintain consistency but bloody hell here we are. 

Epic.

Jake Melsham makes the haters look silly

Immense last quarter from Viney and Gawn.

Immense!

[Nascent 9,286]

As frustrating as parts of that game where, I'm bloody proud of our team and the fight they showed.

Great moment for Melksham.

[bringbackthebiff 658]

Never in doubt.

[layzie 34,114]

I am in total shock. What the hell just happend! 

 

WE STUCK IT RIGHT UP THEM 

[dees189227 12,431]

That was a win for our belief

[FarNorthernD 5,861]

I did not pick that. At all

Go Dees!

[MurDoc516 1,529]

a 5 goal better side without an injured Petty, who knew? clearly not our coaching staff for 2 quarters.

[dees189227 12,431]

Always believed Melksham would kick that

[layzie 34,114]

I can't feel my legs 

[Straight Sets Simon 23,113]

The key in the end was we stopped loading and playing an injured Harry Petty.

[dazzledavey36 55,452]

Harris best on ground Maxy!? 

Genuinely taking the [censored]?

[Nascent 9,286]

Rivers huge in some final moments there. Thought it was ANBs best game this year despite some of his moments. Smith slotted in nicely in defence. He may have found a permanent spot as our sub with his versatility. Viney a beast. Petracca a star.

Best win in a LOOOOOOONMNG TIME!!

Maxy huge. Melksham immense. Stood up when we needed him. He has his detractors but he’s smart and one of our best kicks. Loved smith out back. Trac was massive as was Viney.

Welcome back, Kozzie! 

Came back from the dead against a seriously good side playing SERIOUSLY well. Massive for the year. We have a good run home, let’s solidify the top 4 and can build momentum for finals.

Go Dees!!!! 

[Hopeful Demon 1,518]

What a game! I thought we completely cooked at three quarter time but we just never gave in. Our desperation in the last 10 minutes was outstanding.

Petracca is a champion. He's so glorious to watch when he's kicking goals. Gawn had his best performance in a very long time. That was the ultimate captain's game.

And how could I leave out Jake Melksham. You could just tell he'd nail that set shot.
