POSTGAME: GRAND FINAL vs Western Bulldogs
monoccular replied to Demonland's topic in Melbourne Demons
I felt pretty despondent …. left the room realizing that I wasn’t wearing my scarf ….. put it on and ….. bang, bang, bang (and repeat) …. so you can all thank me for the turnaround. 100 points to 7 with the said scarf on ❤️💙❤️❤️💙 -
Cumulative winning margin in Finals
monoccular replied to La Dee-vina Comedia's topic in Melbourne Demons
Mmmmm .... no regrets from me. The only regret would have been spending all our petrol tickets in the Brisbane game and not being able to come back in the GF. And, speaking of the comeback, of course in retrospect (not good for the heart at the time) would grinding the Dogs from the start with a progressive 3,6 9, 12 goal gap have been as invigorating as having to come back and slaughter them? -
Certainly there were many (myself included) who were disappointed that other than theGC game we didn’t really smash anyone during the H&A season, but I seem to remember hearing / reading somewhere that this was part of the grand plan, pacing ourselves and letting go come finals time. The way the season panned out this could well be the case.

Just out of interest, what did the Crows get with the swapped picks we gave for Lever (and Petty as someone alluded to earlier)?
-
Given his stature he must have always as a junior, and far more so at the top level, needed ‘footy smarts’, courage, tackling ability and pressure as well as his obvious disposal skills, and he has shown us particularly in 2021 that he has all of these attributes. Great season Charlie, and well rewarded. Many thanks.

The Petracca v McCartin debate reprised

Ir maybe in 10 years Pendlebury may be recognised as just an undersized Luke Jackson.

Sure thing - but we could have had a really dominant finals series had we had decent facilities 🙄🙄❤️💙❤️💙🏆👹

POSTGAME: GRAND FINAL vs Western Bulldogs
monoccular replied to Demonland's topic in Melbourne Demons
Nearly three weeks on - please tell me I am not dreaming. Maybe I should watch the second half again (10th - 15th time) just to make sure. 🥰😍❤️💙❤️💙❤️💙❤️💙😮 -
WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - LUKE JACKSON
monoccular replied to Lord Nev's topic in Melbourne Demons
JT. Eternal thanks for what you have contributed to the MFC and our drought breaking list. You should be incredibly proud of what you have achieved - we all are here. -
Not really relevant to the thread title, but what a difference a successful season makes (other than Melksham’s lack of pressure)
-
Please, God, don't. Their arrogance deserves the proper reward, preferably by the Demon, if not the Devil.

I personally would give it a break. Sparrow has done #32 proud and I am sure Vagg would agree.

Lots of tee shirts, but are there any polo shirts (collared)?

How Simon Goodwin inspired the Demons to a Flag
monoccular replied to Demonland's topic in Melbourne Demons
Good observation durango. Seeing Goodwin on the bench calmly chatting to players as they interchange, without the antics we see from some in the box (🙀😮for one), shows complete confidence in his lieutenants to convey what is important but without the constant static. -
Composure and skills are just fantastic. At quarter time he looked like a Norm Smith medalist, and the rest of his game was really good though not quite as much as Q1 - but that set up the win.

Ronald Dale Barassi and the 2021 AFL Premiership Cup
monoccular replied to Demonland's topic in Melbourne Demons
Brilliant I hope that perhaps Ron, and ND can be the official flag raisers when we unfurl the our 2021 Premiership flag. -
Demonstone - can you tell us which year / age group this photo came from? An absolute ripper. PS. And which event.

I was one of many who thought that ANB was just a hard working filler … what an amazingly consistent team contributor he has become, and an unbelievable GF. Well done and apologies for my doubt.

Great moment - awful rule. -

Or having the luxury of him developing slowly in Casey VFL (assuming that the abomination of 2020&2021 is resolved) under the tutelage of Max (and Jacko) being ready to step up when Max steps down.

They have a massive home ground advantage that almost guarantees them a top half finish. Scott's best option is now to work on his bro at AFL HQ to get quarters reduced to 15 minutes and H&Q season to 20 rounds. Byes before each final. Oxygen cylinders permitted on the bench and at every break.
