Cheney is looking forward to playing with his red nut blood brother - Blease.

It will be a magical day when all the Indigenous boys play for MFC alongside Watts, Grimes, Morton, Blease, Strauss, Rivers and Mclean.

Your post was magical until you got to McLean.

If a player plays two bad games, he is not worth mentioning apparently.

The bloke was second in the bluey last year after playing 12 games, but that stands for nothing in some peoples minds.

Support on this forum is so fickle. Mclean is one of the few who tries his guts out and genuinely competes at AFL level.

My god some supporters are fickle. He is not Judd but don't bag him for two games that were poor.

Congratulations to Aaron for his 100th game.....

Hopefully it will be a stellar performance and one that will be remembered.

And with all luck we will get to see a lot more of that "flash" in games to come!!!

I have been disappointed in his last couple of years but I do like him playing more in the back half he gives us something we have not got in the back half which is a player who can run the lines and use the ball well hopefully they will keep him there.

I don't know if I'm alone in thinking this but Davey was sensational last week. By far-and-away our best player. Here's hoping his 100th is just as good!

Certainly one of the most exciting players in the league when on top form and in full flight. A joy to watch. Personally I think he has the potential to be one of the best players in the league. He sort of plateau-ed a little bit in '07 and '08 I thought but he can still improve and we know how good his best is already. He's still only 25. Eight good seasons to come!

My Davey highlight (so far):

One of our matches in June/July 2006, when the World Cup was on the Socceroos were the talk of the town, Davey kicked a goal from 40 metres out, directly out of the air. Goooaaaaallll!

Congrats to Flash on making 100 games. Very good for someone to come off the Rookie list and have such an impact, though we have had a few of those now haven't we!

Davey pretty much revolutionized forward pressure, and the new small forward role. He may not have kicked on like we had hoped, but he is still a good player who has given us some very exciting moments.

Hope he has a good game, and is able to take that next step and become a great player for us, as he has an immense amount of talent to put to use.

Your post was magical until you got to McLean.

The way he's been frustrating us in recent games, and in recent years (since 2006), I can see Chook taking on Cameron Bruce-like infamy on this site.

    POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    The Demons are back in the hunt for finals after a clinical victory over the West Coast Eagles at the MCG which was sealed after bursting out of the blocks with a seven goal to one first quarter.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well
