Thats awesome!

It is about time that the heritage and traditions that this great club are built on start to mean more to our current players

I think this is fantastic and don't want to devalue it in any way...

But isn't this par for the course these days in AFL changerooms?

Yes it is. Nevertheless it's important.

I like the write up they've done (looks as though it's on the inside left of the locker), which gives some brief insight into the history of each number. As opposed to the inside right panel of all the previous player's to have worn that number.

I agree - the write up is something i've not noticed before.

Very nice touch.

The names/numbers are par for the course. The narrative most certainly isn't.

Yep. But it is this exact facet of the sport - that of culure - that the MFC has needed to bring back!! There's a long way to go, but all the guys working for the MFC headed by the inspiring Jimmy and the driven/motivated/experienced Cam Schwab have done an excellent job in getting it all underway. :)

I have to say our club isn't doing much wrong at the moment, it is only a matter of time when the performance on the field will catch up to the performance off it.

Yep and shows exactly how far behind we've been in even getting to this point. But it starts somewhere and the club, Jim, Cam etc etc are doing such a great job...

The narrative is great and will help exemplify to young players how much of a rich history we have.

The old lockers only had players names who had played 100 games on them. I think it is great to have the history with the name of every player & years played.

I think it will also be good for those who start with a "high" number to see others who also started with a "high" number. In the past, not too many players names would be on high number lockers because not too many played 100 games with that number. e.g. Jim's 37

    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
