Zorko reminding everyone how bad of a human he is as well. 🤣🤣

He is a despicable troll. 

 

Trent Rivers is so so so good.

His last 10 minutes was incredible. 1 v 1 he simply does not give up.

Trac is a lock for All-Australian, Viney isn’t far behind him. What a season Jack is having.

Was 08 the game when Wona came alive in the last, with Jimmy hugging Wona’s dad

Great win, stick with the BBB and JVR fwd line.  Lever is putting a very good block of footy together.

Think I would prefer Chandler over Spargo

Lever had a stinker? Very few intercepts, turned around multiple times, no attacking drive. Luckily he did just enough to not get beaten on the siren

I love my Dees and I’m not totally biased to our flaws, but even if we lost tonight I loved that we stuck at it and kept within striking distance. JVR and Brown weren’t great but they continued to compete. May had some horrific moments but was important late.

Most people learn from their mistakes but the usual suspects will again next week be posting garbage on the game day thread vs Adelaide 

Amen to that Pennant. There was a feeling of going down fighting and it was something to hang the hat on at least. 

You never wipe the floor with Melbourne, it is very hard to beat us.

Two words…

JAKE [censored] MELKSHAM!!!

Just got home from the ground. My parents are both in their 70’s and travelled a couple of hours to come stay with me and go to the game. The Demons give us a reason to be together and a common passion.

To see my mum and dad hugging strangers after the siren was the best thing I’ve seen all year. And then to walk out of the ground as supporters kept singing the song was magical. It’s only a game, except when it’s not.

Thanks Dees. I’ll never forget that. I owe you one.

Genuinely rapt for Melksham. Has struggled to win over a few fans along the way but like him or not he just forced his way into Demon folklore. Brilliant.

Melksham gained Demon Folklore and my undying respect when he pulled down that fake Luke Jackson Freo jumper and piffed it on the ground in the race they ran out from. That's a Demon Heart there.

Max was a mountain all night. I only fear for his longevity in the game as his body has been taking an absolute beating (illegally so) for the majority of his career.

Agree and that's why, as amazing as tonight was, we should not expect Gawn to play in beast mode every week. When we evaluate the Gawn/Grundy combo, we need to remember that Grundy's quality ruck work during the season has helped preserve Gawn for the end of season. 

28 points down when Max got that high goal. What a captain's goal!!

The most bizarre shot for goal you’ll ever see. It went 40m above the goal post 😂

I’m with @praha. One of the best wins I’ve seen live. Up there with the 2018 finals. 

The confidence we must take from that. We were thoroughly outplayed for large chunks of the middle two quarters against a top 3 side but to continue ti believe and to fight so hard to wrestle the game back is huge. 

Melksham getting deserved credit bur please can we all just reflect on how unbelievably good Petracca is. 26 touches, 4 goals, 7 clearances, all whilst Brisbane mercilessly held and scragged him all night. If he can be this good more forward than mid in a side without Clarry…just imagine when Clarry returns…

IMO it was no coincidence that their second quarter run started when Trac and Viney were stuck on the bench for ages. Along with Gawn, they were just outstanding tonight. 

Rivers to the midfield. Please. More of it. We need more mids. Brisbane got on top through the middle in part because we just can’t go with that many mids given the current make up of our side. 

The stunning win will distract from a few major issues - our inability to stop their transition from back half to scores was concerning, as was our reversion to long bombs to the heads of stationary forwards. But when we move the ball even 20% quicker we look so much better.

Hopefully this is the kickstart of belief, confidence and form we need to run through into September.

I really wanted that win, can’t stand Brisbane.

Gawn was awesome and us much better as the main ruck.

Good to see Kozzie used on ball and thought he worked back into form tonight.

Woeys goal was sensational, but how clutch was Melksham?

Yes it was a good old fashioned roost if ever I saw one.

They're wasting their time if that's the strategy.

Trac is the Norm Smith specialist!!

He will be targeting the Coleman medal, next year. 😃

  • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

    The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

  • CASEY: Brisbane

    The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

    The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
