It was two wins from two games on the road for the Demons as they easily cruised past the Crows before the 5 day break took it's toll in the last eventually downing Adelaide by 15 points.

Strong team win from a tough  scrambly game  ... on top of a short break. Class does show through !

Two wins in Adelaide - who else has done that?

 Inexplicable umpiring at times!

Bring on Brisvegas!  

That ground is our fortress. Petition to move our home games there. 

2 wins in Adelaide within a week. You beauty 

Demons 4, Adelaide Umpires 0.

That’s a clean sweep. Well done boys.

See ya next Thursday.

Incredible effort. Surely we've just done something no club has ever done before - knock of both of a non Vic state's sides over there in consecutive weeks.

It's poor English to start a sentence with a number

It wasn’t for lack of trying. 

Top of the ladder.

Great effort to beat both Adelaide clubs in 5 days. Major confidence builder. Awesome stuff Melbourne!

Oh yeah - TOP OF THE LADDER - Go DEES!

Good win. No need to critique, save our best footy for later in the year.

What a trip for the club. Take the points and get the hell out of there!

Strange night on the stats sheet again. Lots of players down on numbers. Got it done though

Two from two.  Not "2 from 2".  Poor English.

Great effort by the boys tonight. Up against a team with extra players, short break, banged up and a playing in front of a hostile crowd. Great to get the win and now have a little extra rest before we are back at home!

Was not hoping for nerves in that qtr but we would have been gassed and held them up really well in the end.

We take 4 points and won both games in Adelaide, with only 5 days break. Can’t imagine that was pencilled in at the start of the year.  Can’t argue with that! How good is McVee? Caleb was impressive.

Great effort boys - bring on the Lions then a well deserved break.

1 thought that comes to mind is who gives a flying ****?

I salute Steven May.

Bog with broken ribs.

Not one for a 'Name a Game' VHS but great to win ugly off a 5 day break and three extra players for the Crows.

Blake Howes being a gun defender was not on my 2024 bingo card but I'm all for it.

Would have taken 3-3 before opening round and most certainly after it, to be 4-2 or 5-1 at the bye is a HUGE result for this team. Our best is yet to come.

 

Can’t complain about getting 8 premiership points in Adelaide 

Steven May take an absolute bow. What a star!!!

A great team performance, against the umps, off a 5 day break, against a team that desperately needed a win at their home ground. 
 

So proud of this club, after all the garbage we had thrown at us this off season, we didn’t let it impact us instead we said “watch this” 🫡

Umpires 21-9

C [censored] !

Windsor is our best winger.

As sweet as it gets.

Stuck it up the Afl.

The umpires.

The fans.

And commentators.

Now let's get home.

A win was all we needed. I knew Adelaide were going to be competitive as they were under enormous pressure coming into this game.

Trac was our best by a fair margin. He set the tone in the first half. Windsor continues to impress. His composure is next level for a 5th gamer.

Winning two games in Adelaide within five days is a bloody good effort if you ask me.
