WHAT HAPPENED?? I missed the first 3 quarters because I thought this game was on at 7:20pm AEST.

Demons were s**t Eagle were good.

Also demons broke a drought longer than their premiership one. First team to go goalless in the first half of a final since 1927.
 
Melbourne clearly were not deserving of the hype.

They got a dream draw, dominated teams below them and couldn't beat teams above them. They were perfect candidates for the typical team that finishes bottom of the 8 and gets knocked out in a Semi Final. If that had happened it would have been about right.

They knocked out Hawthorn, so I found it quite right that they won the semi personally. :D

Hasnt Jack Redden seriously resurrected his career. Looked to have bright future when it was him and Rockliff and the young guns of the brissy midfield.
I think he had a couple of injuries but seemed to be in the wilderness for a while there, but has come back strong this year.
 
Those who likened this to Syd vs Ess EF 2017 have hit the nail on the head.

Syd 121 - Ess 56
Margin at HT - 61pts

WCE 121 - Melb 55
Margin at HT - 63pts
Jeez that was a bad day, I was expecting a Sydney win being a realist and all that but to not lay a glove on them ! Poor old Sydney were bundled out the next week, the way we played was one of the big reasons. Talk about witches hats. They had a bye, us (another bye) and then the Cats tore into them.
