- Moloney to get up for this weekend for sure. Was "50/50" two weeks in a row!! Shouldn't spend 3 weeks on the sidelines with a corked thigh...

- Great to see Grimes only 1-2 weeks away! Could play the final 2 games of the year which will both be VERY important games if we beat Richmond.

- Wrap Gys up for the year and get him a full pre-season.

Can you imagine if McMahon did play? He'd get a standing ovation by the MFC supporters every time he went to the bench.

More than just when he went to the bench, every time he kicked the ball we should applaud him as i'm sure we would get flashbacks of last season and that beautiful goal on the siren to give us picks no.1 and no.2. Stynes should present him with an honourary Melbourne jumper to acknowledge his contribution to our club.

And for those who wish to recall that memorable day.... here's a link to the video:

KOTD!!!

That mark was taken a good 3 seconds after the siren too.

God bless Jordan McMahon :wub:

I would love to see the Punt Rd end renamed the "Jordan McMahon end" for Sunday.

A banner the width of the goals (behind the goals) would do it.

It would be even funnier if Richmond were to be the more successful club of the two by the end of

the decade.

And everyone would be laughing at the smug Melbourne supporters hanging [censored] on a player who won

a game for his team off his own boot after the siren.

I hear you stmj.

Good! (cause initially I was sensing sarcasm!)

I am more than joyous about or abundance of young draftees, but I do think it's pretty ridiculous hanging it all on Jordan.

Footy is about winning games, and those games are pretty rare and special. Quite sad really when you think about it.

Interested in what the list looks like this week!

Last week a few blew out, it will tell us if we will see Grimes again this year.

Only 2 more Casey games left so if he is not back to play with Casey on 22/8

we will not see him again this year which will be disappointing!

I spoke to him on Satuday morning at training, said he was nearly ready to go (a weeks training), hoping to maybe get a game at Casey this coming weekend

He was on the TAC Show on Sunday and Hutchy mentioned that he was out for one more week so hopefully, he'll be down as "test" on tonight's injury list.

Has anyone noticed we have the most injury prone rookies ever.

Newton, Meesan, Hughes, Healy and Spenser have all missed practically the entire season with injury.

If i were in charge, i'd delist the entire rookie list, except Spenser who'd i'd try to keep on the rookie list (might have to re-rookie him?)

    DERAILMENT by KC from Casey

    It wasn’t quite a trainwreck although at times, it sure looked like one, so I’ll settle for “derailment”.  The trip to Brighton Homes Arena in Springfield outside the back of Brisbane might not exactly be the same place where Homer Simpson’s family resides but, if you listened closely to the utterances of the Casey Demons fans both at the ground or watching via livestream, you could hear lots of groaning and plenty of expressions of “D'oh!” reverberating in the background, particular

    TEN YEARS AFTER by Whispering Jack

    Things have changed in the more than ten years since the West Coast Eagles decimated Melbourne by 93 points on the MCG early in the 2014 season. The two sides had not met at the home of football in the interim until yesterday when Melbourne won by a comfortable 54 points to remain in contention for this year’s finals series. Back in those days, the Demons were in the midst of their Great Depression but they have since tasted premiership glory and experienced a long enough period among

    PREGAME: Rd 18 vs Essendon

    The Demons are back at the MCG once again and will once again be fighting for a spot in the Top 8 as they come face to face with Bombers on Saturday night. Who comes in and who goes out?

    VOTES: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    Captain Max Gawn has a considerable lead over the injured reigning champion Christian Petracca in the Demonland Player of the Year Award. Steven May, Jack Viney & Alex Neal-Bullen, make up the Top 5. Your votes for the win against the Eagles. 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.

    POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    The Demons are back in the hunt for finals after a clinical victory over the West Coast Eagles at the MCG which was sealed after bursting out of the blocks with a seven goal to one first quarter.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well
