The number of close wins theyve had reads like a fairytale. Theyre good at it but luck and dodgy umpiring certainly plays its role.

We probably  would of lost to the Pies if the game had gone another minute. Just one more crucial umpiring decision Pies way and the Pies win another game on the siren.

    I imagine Kane Farrell is not Mr.Popular on the Port boards today.  The deliberate OOB that gave Elliott a makeable shot at goal and then dropping the pressure chest mark at the death.

    And then dropped a sitter inside 50 from a JHF pass with a minute to go.

    It's funny how the best teams have so many "lucky" wins.

    The best teams fight to the end and always believe they can win. It's what separates them from the rest.

    And we don’t? 
    We fought back twice against the Lions, and against Port and held on against the Pies. Our average losing margin is exceptionally small for a reason. 

    We just don’t get behind as often at the Pies, so nobody rates our ability to fight back and win. But that doesn’t mean we don’t or can’t. We fought back from 19 points down in a grand final and won by 70+.

    Means nothing if you're fighting back and not getting the results.

    Pies on the other hand simply get the results.

    Agree. We’re rarely not in with a chance to win our games. It’s why we’re a contender as well.

    We beat Lions, we beat Dogs, we beat Geelong. 
    And I bet my bottom dollar that if Oliver doesn’t do his hamstring we beat Port as well. 
     

    There is a lot to be said for fighting back and winning. But there’s equally a lot to be said for not needing to constantly fight back to win, don’t you think? 
    Why is Pies coming back and winning more impressive than Melbourne being in every game we play and rarely being in a position to not win it?

    Are you a Melbourne supporter? I think if there has been another minute e we would have won by over a goal.

    St Kilda being able to start the last two seasons the same and fade out the same is uncanny, 

    When are they sacking Ross the Boss?

    These over-celebrations by the Saints players after kicking a goal is hilarious.

    You’re on 61 points with 10 minutes left against the second worst team in the comp that hasn’t won a game since round 2. 
     

    I’d be ashamed if I even cracked a smile lol

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      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.

    • GAMEDAY: Western Bulldogs

      It's Game Day and the Demons will be running out on the field with a new Head Coach, albeit a caretaker, for the first time in 3,060 days when they face the Western Bulldogs at the MCG today. What do you want to see from the Demons in the first match of the Post Simon Goodwin era?

    • Thank You Simon Goodwin

      As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.
