Having said previously I doubted there would be time for questions at BTB, I have to admit I could not have been more wrong.

For those not there, I rolled up at 12.30 and Cameron was holding an informal Q and A with the gathering crowd, fielding questions about Col, revealing he had been replaced in the side, and questions about player welfare and guys like Jurrah, Wonna - anyone at all people wanted to know about.

The formal part consisted of a video of the forwards being briefed on tactics V the crows - who they needed to keep deep, who they wanted to move up the ground etc - followed by some more Cam S and then a personal update briefing from Josh Mahoney - who took more questions!!

Terrific stuff - those who attended that I spoke to thought it was real value.

I was there too, really enjoyed it and Cameron was in fine form as usual. Josh Mahoney did very well getting across the tactics and such, great initiative by the club, can't wait for the next one.

Perhaps next year they make it available for single games.

Cam Schwab was also in the Harrison Room at the after match.

Spoke very well-This Club is moving upwards i have no doubt.

The crowds will return to the MCG we have some gun kids, and the club will not deviate from their Blue Print.

As i said a couple of weeks ago. Cameron spoke before the season started and stated that the MFC are intending to win 150 home & away games in the next decade. He was Serious.

Today just might be the beginning-The 2nd Half Turn around today was a new look Melbourne-They refused to lie down.

I thought the best part about it was that at least 70-80 people were in attendance, if not more, which at $200 a head translates to anywhere between $14,000 - $20,000 for the club for a function that costs them the best part of nothing.

Really interesting insights. Josh Mahoney seems really switched on and Cam was in fine form, as per usual.

Looking forward to the next one against the Lions!

Any that have been foolish enough to criticize Mahoney as a coach should take notice - the club rates his coaching ability highly and he was very impressive.

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    PREGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    The Demons head back to Melbourne after an embarrassing loss to the Dockers to take on the Magpies at the MCG on Kings Birthday. With a calf injury to Lachie Hunter and Jacob van Rooyen possibly returning from injury who comes in and who goes out?
