Two former MFC Brownlow medalists who both love the red and the blue.

Don't forget that Woey didn't really want to go to the filth..it was just that his post-brownlow contract was savagely back ended we couldn't really afford to keep him anymore.

I believe that when Woey got married [during his filth career] most of the AFL related guests were MFC...where his heart lies.

He was also starting to plateau and deteriorate as a football and the brave and correct decision to trade him should have been applied to others at the senior end of list that collect their cheques and clog our list.

Its great he is doing whatever he can to support the red and blue. However I dont see a strategic role for him at MFC beside being a public face supporting our membership drive next year. he still has alot of connection with MFC supporters.

Good luck Woey.

He did his best to publicly ridicule the club at any opportunity he had while he was at Collingwood, how quickly people forget.

No one has forgotten. It serves no purpose to harbour on it

For the good of the Club's future I am happy to have him back in the fold to support the new administration. If can add support there are many supporters who are still fond of Woey and he may have some traction with them.

You miss my point, Woey has demonstrated time and time again that he talks first before thinking his actions through, I'm not sure someone of his level of intelligence would be of great benefit to a club in our position. Even as recent as last weekend he was making comments about 'barracking for Collingwood', he is hardly a Melbourne man like Stynes, Greg Healy, Gary Lyon etc.

Yeah I did sorry :(

I agree with your assessment though of him. Fantastic on the field in his early years but a little restricted off it at times!

I hope Jimmy is a vanguard to at least get more ex players to rally around and engender support for the Club.

Anything that gets past MFC players to help the club in any capacity is a plus in my opinion.

Something Garry suffers from is he's everywhere in the media, meaning people expect him to do more.

Anything that past players can do is very welcome in my mind.

Hope to see Woey around, how quickly we forget he was a favourite son, no, just joking, we always remember

Precisely. He is a Brownlow Medalist AND with the Melbourne Football Club. If he wants to provide assistance, then so be it. A lot of supporters still love him therefore, however he can help sign up members - let him help.

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
