Sorry WCE fans but what a great day for footy! (From a non-demons fan!)

Very happy Melbourne member here. I was almost 10 years old when they first played finals in 1987, now my son is 8 and he has been waiting a long time to see a decent Melbourne side as well.

I thought we were nearly dead as a football club about 6 years ago when Mark Neeld and Cameron Schwab were in charge. But ever since Peter Jackson walked through the door there have been baby steps (generally) in the right direction.

Not only we are winning more than we lose, but the style of footy is as good to watch as there is in the comp. That was a great game to watch yesterday. So happy for Nathan Jones who played a couple of finals in his first year, and has suffered more than anyone since. Even guys like Max Gawn & Tom McDonald have been around a long time and have stuck with the club through some rough times. I truly believe that we can do some damage in this finals series with a bit of luck and some belief.
