I didn't realise how much I didn't want Melbourne to win until now.

Great result for Daniher.
Glad he gets to see this.

12.4 to 2.1 in the 2nd half, and there's still 7 minutes left, so they might get another 5 goals.

12 in a row

Absolutely nuts.

Game deserved to be closer tho
Tis a shame

Man.. its 2007. Covid hit years and years earlier.

And we are all locked up with a 9pm curfew.

Do you go out running amok on the streets risking a 5k fine... or do you remain at home

It's a completely different world. No QR codes, nowhere near the social media or mobile internet reach/capability... How does that change how COVID has unfolded and the position we're in at this point?

 

[catscratchfever]

Treloar good effort 3 goals in a granny

 

[Mad_Hatter]

Really, outside a brilliant second quarter from the dogs, this has been a 1 way smashing.

 

[winty]

JB: Treloar's been a good player tonight.

Yeah, if you discount the 2 and a half quarters when he was barely sighted that is.

 

[BotsMaster]

Have to feel for Jones

Definitely. Especially when players like Marlion Pickett have 2 premierships.

Its a hypothetical

Melbourne are breaking their drought???

Good win by the Dees in the end. Best performed side all year, a very classy outfit, and a deserved win. Great to see them do it for the long-suffering supporters.

You certainly feel it may have been a lot closer, or even a Bulldogs win, had the Bulldogs had more run, having not played the extra game and had the extra travel, but that's ultimately what they get for not handling the H&A as well as they could have whereas the Demons were again the best side all year, and they proved it and reaped the rewards tonight. Combined year-long effort and performance on the day shone through.

Especially with all those duds in the draft..Watts,Toumpas,and that other guy (Scully). Still came through. Shows that rebuilds can can work even with draft busts. GFC take note..

and Jones literally carried this team on his back for many years when they tanked for draft picks.
But he's well and truly cooked. Would have been a liability if he was played.

Could Melbourne win this by more than they beat us by the other week?

Those busts lost them an entire era, this is seperate. Scully has retired hasn't he? Not like it was 5 years ago.

 

[Munich]

Booooooooooooo.

Can't stand melb and their supporters

Surely he would have been the sub

 

[Shell]

Those within 10km of the g should paint it red and blue.


From 5am onwards tomorrow..

Spargo looks like one of Fletcher's flunkies in Porridge.

Just worked out this reference - 1970s TV sitcom Porridge. Was imagining he'd been rolled in some oaty Optus mud.

 

[catscratchfever]

I'm afraid we may be looking at our new Demon overlords

[standupand]

I can see Melbourne being better next year

Be kind. Some of us are just trying to see light at the end of the tunnel right now.

 

[Baudolino]

Okay so does is everyone who called Beveridge a genius going to call him a fraud now?
