Additionally would also like to make sure he is actually not, you know, the biggest trade disaster in history before we go and make him the captain. I think Carlton could be fairly sure that the J**d exchange was going to work and although Clark might be a huge hit he's not a 100% guaranteed success.

Besides, suggestion was by Greg Denham and suggestions by him should be instantly forced into an industrial sized shredder closely followed by Denham himself.

Happy to stick with current captain but would take Moloney or JT as a long shot.

Agree with everything.

Although regarding that last line - I wouldn't be 'happy.' I would understand the maintenance of the status quo but I would sigh audibly and curse very audibly if we had the same leadership situation at this club.

Does the name Brent Moloney mean anything at Demonland??????

Yes we got him from Geelong but he was and is a Melbourne person just like Brad Green and the rest of our captains at the Melbournefc. Surely Brent would have what we want as a captain. That is the hard leadership we need.

Mitch has got to earn his colours first.

Moloney isn't smart enough, nor a good enough communicator.

That is your opinion.

We need a captain that can walk the walk and lead the team by his actions on the field.

Come to think about it how would you describe David Neitz Mr Lutz?

I have no doubt that Brent Moloney would lead the team in the same way as David Neitz did. The good thing is that David could help Brent with how to be a very effective captain.

To be blunt it would be madness to appoint Jack Trengove as captain as he is still growing as an AFL player.

I have a feeling that Brent Moloney would fit into the type of captain that Neeld would want. Plus I have a gut feeling being captain would not effect the way he plays as it had with Brad Green.

What worries me with Green is that result in Geelong. I have no doubt that a Melbourne team with Brent Moloney as captain would not put in such a limp wristed performance. Or should I say protest performance.

You're saying Beamer doesn't have footy smarts? Can't get a message across to the boys?

Or are you talking purely from a media perspective?

Either way it's a bad call.

    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.

    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
