You are not a true supporter of the MFC. Enough said.

Get behind the club when it needs you most.

GO DEES!

Great reward for everyone who went to the G and as only 600 short of 20,000 means MFC does not have to get out the chequebook as would have expected!!

Thanks also to the non MFC supporters who turned up too!!

HINT: MCC and MFC have seen that it is possible to get extra people to games at the G with a bit of no cost incentive like a kick after the game. MFC and Nth Melb games in particular for rest of 2008 should be looked at for such events. Wasn't that hard was it!

Can't be there and will be on full media blackout until the 7.30pm Fox Sports replay of the game.

Fair to say the full media blackout failed miserably with the number of phone calls and texts I got at around 5pm telling me something had gone horribly... right!

Persuaded Dork supporting fiance to come along...she loved it, along with everybody else.

Wish Mousey, Distance Demon and other interstate supporters could have been there to soak it up as well

The crowd was fantastic. Stuck it out, got vocal and carried the boys over the line. Very happy I was there. Bad luck YM.

Congratulations Demons on a very good day. Went with a Cat mate and his son, enjoyed a very entertaining game with a raucous crowd (good numbers too, well done) and HAD A KICK ON THE 'G AFTER THE GAME! What a bloody great initiative. Hope not too many of you left at half time, like the couple of blokes sitting next to us! Cheers.

Rivals the Dogs game in 05 and the Saints final in 06.

The atmosphere was brilliant. You know the game is great when you're high-fiving strangers. :lol:

Even the trumpeter got in the action. Mind you, when he finished blowing his horn and the siren still didn't go, I was having nervous breakdowns. The longest quarter I think I've ever set through!

Wish i could have been there...I sat on the computer listening to the radio with a six pack for the first half like some kind of idiot...and even more idiotic, I stuck to it, and listened to the second half with more beer...but was well worth it. You could here the atmosphere every time we went forward. Sounded amazing. The supporters at the g are the ones that deserve to be involved in wins like that. Well Done!!

best ever comeback? I'm sure there have been a few 50+ point comebacks. Essendon down by 65 or whatever against North in 2001 comes to mind.

As far as half time comebacks go, it was the second biggest comeback ever. Only 2 pts off the record. There have been biger comebacks, but Im pretty sure they are referring to half time deficits...

Thanks Nightmare, I'm sure I speak for all the other interstaters in wishing we could have been there too. Must have been sensational!

Unfortunatly we couldn't even get TV coverage in Canberra, with both free to air and paid TV showing the Swans / Dogs game. So much for Demetriou trying to promote the game in the regions.

Anyway, I listened to every word of commentary via MMM and my PC, and I sang the song just as loud at all of the truely faithful who attended the G. What a win!!

The Dees staged the second biggest comeback from half-time.

Talking of the Ess v North game, I was there - with a North supporter - and it was pretty astounding.

Just trying to imagine that same passionate crowd if it was 40,000. We can do it in time Believe. 40,000 against interstate clubs is what i want.

Did Y M go to the game?? I need to know!!

He says he went. Then again, YM says a lot of things. In saying that, despite his obvious insanity, I'm certain Yze_Magic is as passionate a demon as anyone here. He may as well be - he's on the Highway to Hell anyway.

It sucked not being there.. so much.

After only hearing the half time score, I sent my brother a a text asking how much we ended up losing by. When he replied 'up by 8 with 2 mins to go', i lot it. I ran out the back of the store, stuck my demons scarf on, informed EVERYONE at JB chadstone (not that anyone believed me at that stage), and walked past the TV with the replay every five seconds.

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out
