ok so this year the big break out player was obviously James Frawley. the kid will be a gun full back!

Col Sylvia also finally stepped up and Grimes showed what he can do but i'm expecting next year to be his break out year.

Who's going to come to the party next year?

My tip is for Morton to become a super star next year. Huge break out year for Cale.

anyone else?

I'm looking forward to seeing Sylvia and Moloney working in tandem this year in the centre. Really want to see them take the next step.

Also hoping that Col stays on the straight and narrow and gets to play the full 22 without any disciplinary issues...

I wish Football season wasn't so far away...

M.Newton.....

I've given up on this bloke.

I'm not usually down on players, but I saw him play in the game against Richmond, and he was insipid.

Every time he got his hands on the ball, a turnover ensued.

Such a waste of time and resources.

Last year I was happy to see him play if it meant improvement. But we got little, so I'm happy to burn him now.

1. Jurrah

2. Jetta

3. Bennell

4. Maric

Liam Jurrah hands down. He will be a superstar.

Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo excited.

The Michael Jordan of the AFL.

From left field, I'd have a couple of dollars on Jetta.

A solid pre-season in the gym and on the track could seriously elevate him up a few levels.

He definately has the smarts, he just needs his body to mature and be able to run out games and bust a gut.

The exact same thing could be said for Jamie Bennell.

I also highly rate Addam Maric.

I expect big things from him in 2010.

He has everything going for him...pace, smarts, clean skills.

Add strength and endurance and he will be a serious player.

And gees i love Grimes.

Bring on 2010!!!

PS Please be patient with Jack Watts, he has a lot of filling out to do. He will be the best of them all.

Sylvia needs to have a big year, we have so many players that will improve but one that will stand out is Nathan Jones, he gets his hands on the footy at stoppages, a little more strength to stand in tackles and off load I can see him be a dominate clearance player.

Sylvia will dominate next year. The blokes a freak. He's my tip for the major break out.

Jurrah is a wizard as we all know, so who knows what the hell he's capable of.

We'll see improvement from Watts, but the best is still a few years down the track.

Oh, how the future is bright :lol:

I think Morton will step up and be top-3 for us. I really hope he does. I quite frankly think he has been over-rated to this point in his career. He is going to be very good, and hopefully that is what he will be next year.

Davey to be in the All-Australian 40-man squad.

Sylvia to rip a handful of games open and get 30+ touches 4-5 times.

Jurrah to kick 50 goals.

Strauss, Watts, Scully and Trengove to get Rising-Star nominations. (Sorry, I know nothing about Blease or picks 11 and 18 at the moment.)

Matthew Bate to kick 40 goals and become one of our top-10 players.

Frawley to go close to All-Australian squad selection.

Grimes to get 8 Brownlow votes.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
