3 things i fell in love with this season....

1. How we play against the Filth

2. James Frawley

3. The future

Liam Jurrah

Playing Collingwood

Jack Trengove's goal against adelaide...straight over the head of the Adelaide cheer squad...Put us in front. Thanks very much. B)

Posted

1. Uncovering a number of potential elite players

2. Inspirational Jim Stynes

3. Upgrade in facilities

Posted

1. Petterd

2. Reliable and dominant backline for the first time in my life.

3. Wonna and Jurrah returning from injury and retaining their spots til year's end. Particularly Jurrah's ability to play only 8 games, but kick 21 goals and come 3rd in the goalkicking. I think this one was a big deal for me because I really thought the bubble might burst and that his amazing first 10 games might have had a fair portion of ass to them. But no. Even with a pretty hardcore injury, and pretty low fitness (he disappeared in the last quarter against the Roos) he still managed to have as much of an impact as you could ask for.

1. Lynden Dunn's moustache

2. Lynden Dunn

3. Lynden Dunn's moustache again (so awesome it deserves a second mention)

Posted

1. Scullys ability to burst from a pack.. his kicking will come good and wow just wow

2. Jurrah.. its feels so good to have other clubs supporters to comment on how good he is, instead of ribbing us all the time

3. The Club.. it was a bit of 'meh' club off the field, but now everything is coming together and im loving it!

Posted

1. Scully's work off the ball.

2. Frawley's superior judgement, and how he reads the way he needs to play each situation perfectly.

3. The Jurrah-Aussie combo. The epitome of synergy.

(can I add a fourth? Lynden Dunn's tache, not to mention his renaissance)

Posted

1. Chip (and anyone who doesn't say they did too is lying!)

2. Our "instant" forward line (Dunn, Green, Ricky early on, Wona later, Jurrah, Watts up high)

3. The quick transition from "ROBBBBOOOOOOOO!!!" to "JURRRRAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!"

Posted

1. James 'Chip' Frawely - that neck deserves a postcode. Love this bloke.

2. The Big Rush - Jamar carried the ruck duties through every game, you could see him tiring. Great credit

3. Optimism - the club is full of it and it's been fantastic to take that feeling to every game this season.

Posted

1. The Frawley/Grimes combo forming down back

2. The Scully/Trengove combo forming in the middle

3. The Jurrah/Wonna combo forming up forward!

Posted

Beaten to it ^^. For Geddy Lee;

1. Frawley - been a long time since we saw a defender of his ilk at the MFC. Fast, strong, smart, a long accurate kick and not afraid to kick a goal. Will win our B&F and I absolutely love him.

2. Scully - been a long time since we saw a midfielder of his ilk at the MFC. Incredible tank, tenacity, focus, speed and drive. Lives to play football for the MFC and will improve dramatically.

3. Jurrah - incredibly unpredictable. Can leap over 200cm opponents, yet can also get the crumbs and burst away from everyone. Perfect kicking action and incredibly accurate from any angle, whether it be snap, drop punt or miscellaneous. Never panics and always looks to have time. Great at losing his opponent. I could go on.

These three blokes are the reason I went to nearly every game we played in Melbourne this year!

Posted

1. Frawley - I don't think i've ever had more confidence in any defender to come through the club

2. Jurrah - Excitement machine, will generate public interest in the Dees and hopefully the youth

3. Debt free - How sweet it is!

Posted

1. The big get f'd to everyone who said we should have merged – just generally the passion and commitment shown by the board/jimmy/schwaby/bails

2. New facilities - which should see our appalling injury rates decline

3. New Talents - some of them we knew we had (tommy and trenners), and the ones we’ve unearthed (“junior junior”, dunny, chip, jurrah and hopefully tappy and blease)

Posted

1. JMac number one (classy "retiree")

2. JMac number two (at the bottom of every pack like he's digging for gold)

3. JMac number three (Brisbane reject? I think not!)

Posted

1 The Great Wall (Chip being a major component; Grimes special mention too)

2 The Emblem !

3 The Foundation Members and everyone who helped wipe the debt. That means you guys ! :wub:

Posted

1. The fact I have more than 3 things to put on this list.

2. all of the above in this thread.

3. Mo's for all underated players if Dunne is any guide.

(Jimma the love afffair started long ago, you are a legend of the club and life.)

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields.

Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    TRAINING: Wednesday 5th February 2025

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
