The good thing about a thread like this is that a topic is raised about him, we all discuss it, with the overwhelming majority expressing our support for Burgan and the work he has done.

I think that the response here is a feather in his cap.

It also shows that almost any topic can be discussed, no matter how stupid (or otherwise) we think the OP was.

Matt isn't a professional presenter, that's not his role, he is responsible for the content on the website which has improved significantly since he started. Maybe he isn't polished or as attractive

I like him. He's not a flashy media performer but he seems genuine to me.

There's a bit of Andy Maher about him. But he asks the questions you expect of an inside reporter and writes well. I don't think he's in any danger. If we need to trim back on staff in our communicati

Hmmm

Me wonders "who is KingSlayer33"?

While my first name is also Matt I can assure you "old dee" that my surname is definitely not Burgan. Sorry to disappoint though :)

Also a slow time of the year AOB!

Almost anything would get a run at present.

As strange as this may sound mate I did not think it was.

My father told me a long time a go not to check to much on what people think of you because there will always be one that dislikes you.

and you cannot win em all!

Your Dad is right.

I reckon I am a terrific fella - smart, friendly, supportive, good fun to be around, but some people think I'm and out and out CX@#!

I've got a couple of baby seal pups that need clubbing if a few of the Burgo bashers want to take them on too!

Regarding Burgan, I have to say, I rate the bloke!

Comes across as very down to earth, and easy going..........knows his stuff, and overall seems like a decent guy.

Give me Matt Burgan over some of the other smug tossers in the media everyday of the week!

I like him.

The official Melbourne site was horrible a few years ago.

The amount of content it has got now is awesome.

Hope he stays working for the club.

Is it just me or is this guy just a bit of amateur hour.

Jordie's sister did so well the other night and deserves the mantle.

Thoughts.....

As far as I know he's a writer. I remember reading a lot of his stuff when he was working at AFL.com.au (mainly on the drafts) and it was impressive. The stuff he has done on the MFC website has been good too... a million times better than what was being put on there before he came on board.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp. DEMONLAND'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS It’s going to be a scorcher today but I’m in the shade at Gosch’s Paddock ready to bring you some observations from the final session before the Preseason Training Camp next week.  Salem, Fritsch & Campbell are already on the track.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
