When was the last time we had a Greek Boy ?

I really cant remember any at MFC.

I like "Jimmy Stomp-Ass"as a name .

"Pethi Mou-Stomp-colos"

that would be Loukas Beveridge

Lets not go overboard on Little Jimmy Yet.......Is yet to play a game......Don't want Jack Watts expectations....

I hope like hell you are all right with your decriptions of him but lets wait until he has played a few games before calling him the saviour....

Go home factor

Bah, humbug ... the last time we had a high first pick in the draft, he was a local kid who signed up with an interstate club half an hour after he arrived at the airport ... and he was only there to have "a look around".

I assume you mean Beijing Airport?? Then flew home asap

Good point....but don't you reckon that our recruits at least LOOK like (physically) they're ready for modern day footy?

No more 60kg waifs?

Sorry Bossdog i am still drinking it's party time.

This kid will bring membership up over the next 10 years.

Welcome to all our Greek family.

Jimmy will win a brownlow in the next 6 years. Big call i know but put it on the record now.

I have the feeling this will be MFC Judd,Buddy,Swan

Our next true A grade star has been born.

Sorry guys just very happy.

Yes....I think it is a big improvement........Trying not to get too excited just yet......

I loved what Jimmy has said so far but I also go with what people do, not what they say. 4 years of a Barack Obama U.S. Presidency has taught me that.

Though I must say it is nice to have someone at the club who is excited to be there. I remember when Scully came. It looks like someone had made him eat a big s*** sandwich with all the trimmings.

It's very pleasing to see his reaction to being pick by MFC...... Good luck Jimmy.... Hope you can translate your form to the AFL.....

Agreed. He isn't big but wouldn't look out of place on the field at this level. Was watching the draft and they were interviewing Jackson Macrae, and the Mrs said '[censored], look how skinny he is, he looks like Cale Morton'.

was it really necessary for OCD mods to merge the threads - I was at dinner stealthily trying to get the result and the first post on this thread goes back to june 30.. now I have to navigate through to find the comments after 7.20 tonight, seriously what is the point of that? I know I sound like a dick but surely it is obvious that this type of organisation, though well intended, actually reduces the efficiency of the site.

No it wasn't necessary to merge threads and there was no merger either with this thread or in 1996 :lol:

What happened was that we changed the thread name once Jimmy officially became a Demon which is what we did with all newcomers this year who had an existing thread to their names.

Hope you enjoyed dinner.

I'm off to Jimmy's Greek tonight, myself.

Anyone see Wines' reaction when he was taken by Port? Seemed a little disappointed.

You mean this. We have to rescue him as soon as possible.

Thanks so much for the bucket of clod water. Please note one big difference....Jimmy has been playing senior footy for quite a while, not APS or TAC. In no other way will I attempt to compare the two : totally different players, and rôles.

    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
