Yep, Nathan Jones is an outstanding young man- we are very lucky to have someone of his calibre at our club. He represents us like no other; his love of our club and his brothers is infectious.

Nice read.

Yep - It is a good read, and Jonesy is a great servant of the club.

But Nathan2jones.com????????? What a self serving piece of..

I mean really?

Obviously you're not familiar with professional athletes promoting their own brand.

It's quite a business savvy and common thing to do.

It is quite common, what would you prefer?

I don'tknow if this has been already posted, but I just jumped onto Nathan's website for a bit of gander, and he has written a very moving piece on his Tiwi experience - http://www.nathanjones.com.au/ Tiwi Times.

Our football club does a hell of a lot right these days.

It's a great read and made me feel proud to be part of this great club. The MFC is being really innovative with the way it deals with indigenous players, way ahead of the rest. We should all be proud

Oh no, I am familiar.

People like, Tiger Woods, Shane Warne, Michael Jordan, James Hird did one too, ..and then this little known kid from Frankston way, Nathan Jones.

you just let us know when you think Nathan Jones has become a good enough footballer to warrant having a website, you know, when he's as worthy as your bomber friend James Hird. Pathetic.

I think Jonesey might just be a little disappointed he didn't get a gig on our new banner for D'Land.

The Internet's not some ritzy, exclusive medium with rigid criteria. I could have a website of my own, if I wanted; and I haven't done anything more significant than making my own toast for years.

Ok ok, I get.

Melbourne players and or 'innovations' shouldn't subject to any criticism. Sorry.

Probably getting off topic now.

Anyway, how about those Dees..?

Baseless criticism? No.

Showing your true colours and they're not pretty.

What's wrong with having a URL that is actually self describing? Not self-serving at all and certainly a lot easier to remember.

Maybe a bex and a nap curry?

i was talking about the demonland poster and his right to post here and go personally slagging off our players with such little reason to do so. Shouldn't be tolerated, this is a public place.

Isn't that exactly why it should be tolerated?

Rusty is free to speak his mind, and we are all free to ridicule him for his close-minded views.

    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

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
