Demons fans flock to MCG to see team lift the cup

On a December, not September, afternoon, and a Sunday rather than a Saturday, Melbourne fans finally got their chance to see the elusive premiership cup raised at the MCG.

They filled half the ground – of course the MCC members and Olympic stand side, the Demons wing – to watch a replay on the big screen of the entire game. They enjoyed each touch, grumbled, cheerfully this time, at the umpiring and thrilled to the second-half surge. They hooted at Caleb Daniel for slinging Big Max over the boundary line and standing over him fists cocked like a mini Ali.

As that surge, that avalanche of goals came the roar grew louder. They might have missed their grand final at the G but this was going to substitute. At least this time the apprehension at the start of that third quarter could be put comfortably in its place. It was all a bit weird, but in a good way.

mickgleeson They must love watching the grass grow. Together with the brainless protests, is it any wonder Victoria, 'The Basket Case State' !!
