haha wat about this

Allen Jakovich

He is my all-time favourite Melbourne player. You never knew what he was going to do, he was just electrifying. He’d get the crowd going, took amazing grabs and kicked great goals. He did the impossible and I just loved him. I tried to ring him one day, I looked him up in the phone book but I didn’t get to speak to him as there were a lot of Jakovichs in the book. It’d be good to meet him one day though.

stalker much?

Cameron Bruce

I don’t think he plays his best footy at half-back - I think he plays best at half-forward - but I had to fit him into my best 22 somewhere. He’s a utility who can play at both ends of the ground. Cam is a complete professional and has been a consistent player over the last 10 years.

Interesting.

I look forward to Frawley or Warnock taking Nicho's spot in the team.

Also how damn good were some of the forwards we've had over the years from the mid 90's to mid 00's, as shown by that forward line.

Sean Wight was one of the most underated players to ever put an AFL jumper on. Watched him hold Ablett goalless (he may have kicked one when Wight came off for a spell) in his run away coleman medal winning year. Super smart player, with the ability to wear his players down on every forward entry. If you kick goals on Sean, you bloody well earned them!

Big Nic at Fullback? This must have been when beamer was too busy with the ladies to watch the full 4 quarters of footy. Love big Nic, but doesn't rank as the best FB over the past few decades.

Brett and his brother Glenn....

Yeah. I picked that up, too. To my knowledge, they weren't related. (But, loved 'em both! Glenn was another of a long list that wasa cruelled by injury just when he was hitting his straps, and we therefore missed seeing him complete a stellar career!)

But, nice to see Beamer's thoughts on the team he's always loved. And, nice to have the unique perspective of a present day player who also grew up loving the team.

Well done, Beamer! You're special!

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan.

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders.

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
