The footy off season is a bit like the northern winter. A seemingly endless bleak period that we have to endure. In my desperation to get through the hiatus period i have reviewed the games I have recorded. The wins against WC, Richmond and Port were fun to watch and Jurrah's debut game against Essendon. The game that has me most enthused is the final round against St Kilda. Apart from Jurrah's magic, Moloney's hardness and leadership and Sylvia's arrival as a fair dinkum footballer, it was the battlers that really gave me heart and pointed to a new game style and confidence at the Dees. There was a confidence to play on, a quickness of handball in traffic and some great disposal. Players whom I had not rated highly impressed me that day. Jordie McKenzie is a real goer and seems to kick well, Dunn played with the positive flair that marked some of his early games, and even the much maligned Bartram made really good decisions. Jetta showed that he has real mongrel, and while his skills me not be silky, he could prove very handy. I'm talking about the players that many posters here would have delisted. The attitude of these guys was fantastic. If this is the prevailing attitude of our battlers then there is something really good happening at the Dees. In the words of Molly Meldrum, "do yourself a favour", and have a look at these game.

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
