Sadly, Adam Cerra has nominated Carlton. I think it may have been a pragmatic decision made due to Carlton having the number #6 pick in the 2021 AFL National Draft. Oh well....his loss...time to move on and target someone else to strengthen our team.

About time these wealthy benefactors who barrack for the Demons opened up their wallets! This is why winning is so important! If I was a billionaire I would have already had our home base built! But that's why I am not a billionaire! I am too generous! Anyway, let's hope they build above car park F which makes more sense!

I also agree that Gary Pert as CEO of the Melbourne Football Club was a prudent choice. His 10 years of experience as CEO at Collingwood will pay off. He was there when the Magpies won the flag in 2010 and would know what it takes to help grow the Demons. There will be ALOT of Melbourne supporters buying 2021 Premiership memorabilia! Especially during Christmas! I am going to purchase something for myself and something extra special for my Dad for Christmas to celebrate Melbourne's 57 year drought breaking Premiership.

I am sure for many years some of us were embarrassed to wear our Melbourne Demons gear out in public. Especially after a bad loss! And if we were on the bottom of the ladder. Getting taunted by opposition supporters and laughed at. Even facing very rude insults. Now all that goes away! We are reigning Premiers for 2021! We are now literally bulletproof to any nasty comments. I encourage you all to proudly wear your Melbourne gear or something red annd blue as much as possible! That way all Melbourne supporters can connect if we bump into eachother in public. Time to share the joy of winning our first Premiership since 1964! Remember we are 2021 Premiers! It still hasn't sunk in yet...but..our club....that's right OUR CLUB the Melbourne Demons are Premiers!!!! Wear your Melbourne gear with pride! GO DEMONS!!!!

I would love for @Demonland to eventually arrange an interview with Mark "Choco" Williams on the Demonland podcast maybe, please? Just so we can call in and give our heartfelt thanks to Mark "Choco" Williams for all the amazing work he has done as Head of Development. May his involvement at the Melbourne Football Club continue for many years to come!

I got 2 of the Mark Knight posters for the Melbourne Demons as 2021 Premiers. Was fortunate enough to get them from my local news agency. They look great! I now need to get my WEG posters. I will then need to look around where to get them framed.

It's in one of the post game interviews after the Grand Final. I can't remember if it was on Channel 7 or Fox Footy, sorry.

Adam Cerra must certainly be conflicted with his thoughts. It's a big decision to make for the young player. On the one hand he has the choice of Carlton. A team with a few young talented players and a new coach in Michael Voss. He would become a starting 18 player and be guaranteed senior games each week in the midfield. On the other hand he has the choice of Melbourne. The reigning Premiers. He is apparently friends with Ed Langdon(?) and he could be tempted by the choice of immediate Premiership success. He would need to play his role within the team and earn his spot. But he could end up with a Premiership medallion around his neck in another 12 month's time. That's a pretty amazing opportunity. Not to mention the chance to be part of a Melbourne Demons dynasty. In the end, it all depends how fairly he wants Fremantle to be compensated in a trade. I think the Demons could arrange a fair deal probably involving a future first round pick and maybe a player like Jayden Hunt as a possibility? Anyway, we shall wait and see who Adam Cerra decides to nominate. I am quietly confident that if he wants to win Premierships that he will nominate Melbourne though.

I wanted to say a massive thank you to Mark "Choco" Williams for coming to the Melbourne Football Club. Apparently he said something pretty inspiring to Christian Petracca while he was on the bench when the Grand Final was in the balance. This assisted with turning things around very quickly in the Demons favour. Mark "Choco" Williams has probably been the recruit of the year for the Melbourne Football Club. I cannot sing his praises any higher. I hope that the Melbourne Football Club sign him on for a few more years. He has made a massive impact on our playing group. To think a few years ago no AFL club wanted Mark "Choco" Williams around. He has definitely proved them all wrong! What a legend!

Just thought the Demons could possibly consider chasing Robbie Gray from Port Power? Robbie Gray is still a fantastic player and at least the possibility of him joing the Demons could be looked at maybe? He is currently an unsigned free agent. The main thing that could sway him to join the Demons is that he is originally a Victorian. Port Power did make the Preliminary Final but they got belted by the Bulldogs and he may feel he has a better chance of winning a flag with the Demons. Additionally, he would have had relationships with both Mark "Choco" Williams and Alan Richardson at Port Adelaide which could also work in our favour. Anyway, I am just putting that idea out there.

6 goals by "Fritta" in an AFL Grand Final is the stuff of legends! He played a fantastic game! He is officially now the most famous person from Coldstream out in the far East of Melbourne!

MFCSS has been cured by Premiership glory! I can't wipe the smile off my face! It is surreal...but yes...the Melbourne Football Club are 2021 Premiers!

I cried my tears of joy. But not as much as I expected I would. Especially after a 74 point smashing of the Bulldogs! We didn't just break our drought of a Premiership, we totally washed away those 57 years of pain and suffering. The history books will now show that the Demons were well and truly deserved Premiers in 2021. The future looks a lot brighter for the Melbourne Football Club.

13 AFL/VFL Premierships now! No more harping back to 1964. This new team of Demons are making their own history! What a wonderful evening! I think you will see our membership increase significantly for 2022. I admit I cried tears of joy when I spoke to my Dad on the phone after the Grand Final win. The Norm Smith curse has been finally broken! It it time to celebrate and proudly acknowledge that the Melbourne Football Club are reigning Premiers for 2021! We are back where we belong! GO DEMONS!!!

Starting to feel pretty nervous now! Going to do some stuff around the house and then get some food and drinks. Time to fire up!!! GO DEMONS!!!!

Looks like a magnificent bottle of Tawny Port! Funnily enough I was born in 1981. I do hope you get to drink it and it doesn't taste like vinegar.

Allen Jakovich was one of my favourite players growing up as a kid. He was definitely a freak! Probably would of kicked 100 goals in an AFL season if he could kick straighter! Was definitely a shame that his career was crippled by injuries. Gotta love his highlights reel though!

Not bad! It looks pretty good. Would of liked the horns bigger! I like the WEG style poster too. Although using the 1958 Grand Final WEG poster is a bit odd, I would of preferred the 2000 Grand Final WEG poster but that's just my own opinion. Anyway, we will see what happens Saturday evening I guess? Fingers crossed! 🤞 GO DEMONS!!!

A better look at the Mark Knight posters for the 2021 AFL Grand Final. Thoughts on the Demon one? I think it looks pretty good. https://www.heraldsun.com.au/news/how-to-get-your-2021-mark-knight-premiership-poster/news-story/0d47561701fd0a4dd67e4a46bdcdd957

I dealt with all the teasing and ridicule of barracking for Melbourne at school. My favourite players as a kid were Allen Jakovich, Garry Lyon, David Schwarz, David Neitz and Jeff Farmer. Enduring all the pain, suffering, frustration and disappointment over the years has been tough.....really tough. For me, at the very least, if Melbourne are lucky enough to win the Grand Final on Saturday it will probably be one of the most happiest days in my entire life. That's how much it would mean to me. But anyway, I won't get too far ahead of myself...let's see what happens and hope the Demons get the job done!

Firstly, I would like someone to ask the CEO Gary Pert about the progress for the Melbourne Football Club's home base for administration and training next to Gosch's Paddock. If you could please ask Gary Pert the question if he could clarify if our home base will be built at car park E or the much more preferred car park F? Tell him that car park F makes for more sense and that car park E would only work if we were allowed both car park E and car park F to build upon. The more room to build the better. Also ask if the name of the training base could possibly be called the Nathan Jones' training centre? Furthermore, we should have a statue of Nathan Jones (or perhaps David Neitz?) similar to how Collingwood have a statue of Lou Richards at the Holden Centre. Has Gary Pert been looking at the objective of achieving 70,000+ members for the Melbourne Football Club within the next 5 years? Lastly ask if there has been any news from the MCC about possibly having a statue of Robbie Flower at the MCG?

Great interview. Peter Jackson really helped the Melbourne Football Club when it was in a precarious position where it could have folded, merged or been moved to Tasmania. I am eternally grateful of the efforts of Peter Jackson when he was the CEO of the Melbourne Football Club. Glad to hear he will also be cheering on the Demons this week on Grand Final day too!

I am a bit annoyed that in the year that these new rules come in that we will probably miss out on Mac Andrew. Why have a Next Generation Academy (NGA) if we can't use it to our advantage? The Bulldogs got the 1# draft pick out of it last year! Anyway, no point whinging about it....but I would definitely ask the question to the AFL as to what benefit does it serve AFL Clubs to unearth talent if we cannot get first priority for these NGA players.

Exactly! There are a lot of Melbourne haters out there. The only way to shut them up is to win! I have been quite pleased with Gary Pert as MFC CEO so far.

In some ways this is an end of an era and a little sad, it was certainly nice for the Melbourne Football Club to own pubs/clubs. I have been to both the Bentleigh Club and the Leighoak in the past, but I understand that this was a prime opportunity to get into a strong financial position. Setting up a "future fund" is crucial for the long term survival of the Melbourne Football Club. Let's hope we can now focus on striving to win Premierships and getting our training and administration base built near Gosch's Paddock.
