Really thought Oliver was unfairly pinged a lot Tonight.

Very inconsistent umpire on htb. Hot then cold then hot

He's overrated apparently to some bloke named picket fairy on here.

These wins galvanise teams. 

We stepped up and despite seemingly trying to kick ourselves out of it, did what we had to do, when we needed to do it. Highlights for me, Caleb clutch tackle and goal, and the FRIBBLER! 

A great outcome to nab this one. I still think the Blues are more dangerous. Win that, and we are on our way. If we play with the same pressure and kick better we will cover them. 

Proud of the grit shown by the boys.

Go Dees 🔥

 

But we still need to improve the kicking, it was the reason we lost against Collingwood and Carlton in the finals.

But overall a great performance.

 

Wow. Gut wrenching last quarter.

Thank you  Jeremy.

Max - you led us to victory.

Lever - the rock.

Petty - welcome back

Langdon - you can have a rest now.

Fritsch - how the hell you were never drafted at 18yo, I will never know. You are simply brilliant.

I want all the "Geelong will give us a reality check" to go hide in the closet for a week...woooohoooooooo

They did give us one. Good game and we are as close as anyone.

Good reality.


What a game of footy! well done lads!

Suck on that Cats. I love beating that team.

Goal of the season to Fritsch. Magic effort to win it.

Defensively brilliant all night. Lever superb.

Great to see Petty clunking them and back in form.

Goal kicking not good. Far out we nearly kicked it away.

We’re up to our necks in it this year. Make no mistake.

Go Dees

A few more highlights, obviously Lever a one man fortress. Probably BOG. And so good to have Petty’s mitts back on. Once he gets the feet working again, he will be a big asset. His marks were so important. 

watching the vision right now you can see how happy the boys are for Petts. Great to see.

 

Great results on the end, kiss my you know what Geelong supporters.

How old was he when we recruited him? 21?


Pretend we are in Adelaide on another business trip. Carlscum in five days

GO DEES

I apologise for the doom and gloom in the match thread, I just can't help it. Everything about this game pointed to another heartbreaking, self inflicted loss.

Thank god it wasn't.

Petty the MVP.

Fritta for me a class player.


Caleb Windsor tackle and finish in the last quarter.

such composure in a pressure situation. magnificent.

 

 

AFL.com.au - Clayton Oliver records 30 disposals for the first time since Round 2. His match tonight included 31 disposals at 81 efficiency, four clearances, 17 contested possessions, eight score involvements, 32 pressure acts and four inside 50's.


 

We’re in the hunt for the premiership. Make no bones about it. We’re a top 4 team. 
 

I thought Geelong would beat us tonight and I am bloody wrapped how wrong I was. 
 

we are fixing our forward issues and there was clear evidence in that game. 
 

Petty getting the cobwebs off.

 

[censored] bring on the blues and let’s see how they like us this year.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

    The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.
