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.

    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@#!

    Work that out!

    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.

    Classic off-season thread

    Love his work. Not some plumfaced journo going through the motions. Loved the B&F interviews especially the Good Times and Chippa and Chunky interviews.

    Keep it up Matt.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
