Just finished watching the replay.

Can someone tell me if that Fritsch last kick was really not a goal?

They never show if the ball goes through the goal line before hitting the post on the opposite side of goal.

Hit the right hand goal post unfortunately

    It can’t have gone entirely past the goal line if it hits anywhere on the post. It was a behind.

    Just rapt. So happy to see Windsor get his 1st goal, max standing up at 3/4 time & kicking the goal, Ben Brown nailing 3 goals and winning for Jack.

    Also is there a dentist shortage in Adelaide? Some of those crowd shots were the stuff of nightmares.

    Can we really know that?

    Weird angle, and the post is thinner at the top. I can see a scenario where a ball with too much spin goes through the goal line and then out to the post on the other side.

    That was one of the great wins.

    Made more remarkable by watching some sort of mirror footy game.

    One team dominated territory, clearnces and inside 50s. But often entering into a crowded fifty and missing key chances. Not taking full advantage of momentum.

    The other team staying in the game  absorbing pressure in the back half,entering into an open forward line and taking key chances. Taking full advantage of momentum.

    Go redlegs.

    I think sometimes some of us take our defence for granted. Having a look at the votes thread not many defenders are in the votes and you summed it perfectly binman. 21 more inside 50s and our backmen absorbed the pressure time after time.

    Absolute heart and soul of our great club. Loved his old man and absolutely love the way Jack goes about it. 

    IMO he will be one of the best to ever pull on a dees jersey by the time he retires

    Interesting thought exercise, possibly with a snap and a heap of wind. But in the real world if it hits the post it hits the post, at least until they bring in ball tracking technology.

    Outside of the GF it's one of the best wins I've seen live. ANB deserves a hug.

    You guys at the game made a heap of noise in enemy territory.
    Was proud of yas.

    Doesn’t surprise me. Happy to be on the other side of the coin this year instead of trying to bash through a crowd to kick goals.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
