In what was a dead rubber for the Demons the game still produced some carnage with Jake Melksham looking like he will be out for the remainder of the season with a knee injury. The Dees overcame a charge from the Swans in the third and ran away winners by 21 points. The Dees will take on the Magpies in the first week of the finals.

That's one of my favorite wins for long time. A team with such pride in the jumper that instead of taking the easy, cruisy path, as highlighted in the fox stats noted above, they dug in and said,

Credit to ANB some of his efforts were amazing

I’m so appreciative of this team. Nothing to play for, everything going against us, and we just refused to give up. I’m so proud to be a Melbourne supporter. This is the best team I’ve ever seen.

Magnificent win !!!!  We toughed it out finals style!

Fritta - he's back ! What an effort. Fairy tale stuff.  Simply outstanding.

Melky - sadly a question mark.

Umpiring - inconsistent.    

That Grand Old Flag a coming .  I can feel it in my nethers.

Great hard comeback. Every digit crossed for Melksham. Great 2nd half Trac. Great seeing the feline Fritta back!

That was a seriously impressive win. Key forwards going down left and right, Swans with elite pressure locking it in and star players not getting near it but they flicked the switch later in the 3rd and dominated the 4th.

One of my most favourite wins aside from the finals wins.

Never in doubt lads!

Fantastic performance!

I'll keep harping on this, but bookmark us a grand final berth. Our system is as good as its been since 2021.

Defensively sound and contested work is at an all time high.

Very proud of the boys and Simons Goodwin!

If we don’t get anymore injuries we will win it. 
We are the best side in it when we turn it on. Prove me otherwise.

Great, gritty win against a very desperate team who brought a lot of pressure and intensity.

Awesome return from Fritter.

We enter the finals in great form, with just the ‘loss’ against the Blues in the last 2 months. Just about the best placed of the top 4. 

Hopefully Melk is ok, we need him! 

Pumped for the Pies, let’s go Dees!

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
