Not quite correct, Barrett said the leadership group would be reviewed, and MAY result in Brad Green standing down as captain...........nothing concrete from Barrett at all!

And the name raised as possible football director was Greg Healy as opposed to Gerard.

Think I'm going to give up. I just can't understand posts like this.

Don't give up. Gerard is gonna save us. Keep the faith.

Any idea what Greg has been doing off field these past few years? I would be keen to know what business acumen he brings to the table. Sounds like great news.

This has probably been done to death in other threads so don't reply if you don't have to, but personally I think he had a very valid point.

He'd be a very good get.

He was the first that came to mind, but I was under the impression he was too busy with Quiksilver, and unwilling to move on (don't blame him, it'd be a good gig).

If this is legit, Lyon is coming up with the goods.

It is Damien Barret though, so take it with a decent grain of salt...

What happened to Lyon?

If only he had balls.

What does this mean?

I mean, he doesn't have the balls to blame an appalling loss on the fine posters of Demonland...

That takes a rare breed.

But he goes ok.

You are very good at testing my resolve to restrain myself from insulting you.

Congratulations.

C'mon little Sug''.. It's time, to take the reigns in one form or another. The foundations are lay'd to start building, in what ever role? is best suited for our club.

Sugar was sitting at the next table to me at the Foundation dinner on Ron Barassi's table. He looked very happy to be around the Melbourne faithful and I wait for the next call of "jobs for the boys". Only difference of course is that this will be an honorary role. He could be a good fit for the position.

I'd be glad for him to be back in the fold.

I saw him a few years back, down StKilda, said hello.

I see him all the time in Brighton and he still looks fit enough to play, tough little bugger. You'd never see him shirk it on the field, but he copped heaps from the Melbourne supporters when he played.

I guess not much changes.

Good Bloke Sugar....and for any of our younger posters, Greg played in a very tough era.

Not the biggest bloke, BUT he never shirked an issue....Took a bone crunching mark in the 1990 Elimination final. To this day i don't know how he didn't get taken off on a stretcher.

Sugar Healy stood up against players much bigger than he.

He was a very good Captain.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
