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.

If we go on and win the Premiership, it stems from this gutsy effort

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!

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

Still no number on Campbell’s

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
