He's very Paul Chapmany, maybe slightly less silky. Definitely suits our bash and crash contested game. He's physical and has smarts.

    We lost 2%+ with those late concessions. Pity.

    Agree - very annoying - % will have a big say in the top 4 this year

    I'd love top 4, but I'll take top 8 and winning 1 or 2 finals. Particularly if Trac doesn't get back. It's intriguing that he isn't listed as out for the season, but out indefinitely.

    But you're right, percentage will have a huge say on both, the top 8 and top 4.

    Am I alone in being dissatisfied with the last quarter near capitulation ?

    Near capitulation?! Pull the other one!

    We kicked 5 in the last, they kicked 5 in the last, to overcome our lead they needed to beat us by 3 goals in the last. They didn’t, enjoy a super win.

    What an awesome, gritty and determined win by the MFC. 

    Welcome back Clarry. 

    Welcome back Fritta  

    Goody I’m not a huge fan but well done.  Credit where it’s due. 

    Now rinse and repeat against Freo next week.

    We did.

    But equally if weren't so accurate we would have list more percentage- and might well have lost the game.

    The bombers were pretty impressive I thought.

    The scoreline flattered us a bit, as evidenced by the x score - 71.3 dees to 75.5 bombres

    i think they should be paid significantly more than part-timers

    incentivise the job, and hold them to account

    Only need 3... but they need to do job properly/ proffesionally/ accountable.

    When was last time anyone saw an Ump over-rule because they were better situated/sighted ??

    Great win Demons, missing Trac, Max and Gus for mine 3 of our best 5 players last year!

    Seeing, Rivers, Windsor, McVee, JVR and Turner of the young brigade all step up was terrific. AMW, Kolt are both showing positive signs!

    Melksham has got better in the last two years, I’m not sure why, but he has lifted and last night you could really see his impact in the forward line. Perhaps competing more and selfless in his ball usage might be the difference, I thought he was gone two years ago, but delighted to be wrong.

    Kossie celebrated his 100 with some freakish moments, when he went under Mckays arm and out the other side was incredible, he is just fantastic to watch.

    Langdon, Viney, May, Lever, TMac, and Oliver after 1/4 time all stepped up! 

    Petty not in stellar form, but competed and played role he was asked by coaches! 

    Pressure, tackling, supporting one another to the nth degree was our one wood tonight, plus who knew, we played wet weather football!

    What a great result!!!!!!!

    Go Demons!

    It was good to see us play wet weather football and the other team try to play dry in the wet for a change.

    Huh?

    My point is it’s easy to get caught up the emotions of how it happened with MFCSS and the recent loss to Brisbane and the North debacle on all of our minds but ultimately they never really got close. They didn’t even win the last quarter. 
     

    Not sure what your Biden reference is. I speak in complete sentences. Although if I could run the best program on student debt relief and lowering health care costs in US history alongside a healthy job market and strong economic growth I would.

    I’ve seen “capitulation” written a few times and don’t get it. 

    Bombers threw all they could at us in those last minutes, as any decent team should.

    I was talking to one of their supporters on the train home and I said I think they are definitely moving in the right direction. As much as I hate to say it Scott has them being a much more accountable team, and it will really help their young guys development.

    4 goals in a row was a bit much though

    My twitter feed right now is bizarre. It's 50% insane tweets about Donald Trump's attempted assassination and 50% proud Melbourne supporters pumping up Koltyn Tholstrup and the gang. I may or may not be tweeting on both topics myself, like a madman.

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

    • NON-MFC: Round 02

      The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

      As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.

      Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
