Every Friday morning Peter Keenan gives his footy tips on ABC radio. In the past he has been a serial critic of his former club, always talking up his beloved North Melbourne. I noticed in the last couple of weeks he has changed his tone. this morning it was, "Melbourne, the team I played eight years for".

Hear that? Listen a little closer. Now you have got it!

It is the sound of those climbing out of the woodworks and jumping on the back of a once very light bandwagon.

We might need to get those brakes serviced, something tells me this bandwagon is going to start getting a tad heavy over the next few years.

I welcome them with open arms, provided they sign up and stay regardless of the outcome.

Can't blame a man for only kissing an arse when it's clean.

Ewwwww...

Yes, he's not doing his dignity any good. But if our current resurgence brings all the past players back to the club, and gets the media tone back towards proper respect, that's fine.

Especially if we can shape the way people 're-imagine' the club in the same way we've reaffirmed our heritage within the club.

Side note, I watched the Freo-Pies game last night and some Freo player or other was running around in the number 31, and I saw the number and was instinctively excited. Doesn't take long for a symbol to mean something new!

Joke of a human being that bloke. I'd make the switch to SEN if I were you.

I have known Peter for 30 years and he is a nice bloke with a real soft spot for the Dees. That is pretty rough.

Agree. I have heard that about Keenan. People like the OP need to develop a thicker skin. FWIW, MFC has deserved much of the criticism in the past.

Try saying that to Jimmy Stynes with all he's trying to do around the club.

I'm sure you'd bring a smile to Jimmy's face, don't you think???

Gee people have short memories of someone I joined a standing ovation for, as he limped around the boundary line only to hear him coating us with s@#$t every chance he could for the next 25 years.

An urger and a bully doesnt come suddenly clean just because he is funny.

Can remember him coming out of retirement for a few games to help out the seconds when we were chronically short of fit players. Wore number 60 with his fat guts hanging out the bottom. Still busted his arse trying to help out the young kids. You don't do that sort of thing if you don't care about the club.

    The premiership defender had his best year yet as he was given the opportunity to move into the midfield and made a good fist of it.

    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.

    2024 Player Reviews: #31 Bayley Fritsch

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return.

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
