Ah those were the days. St Peters had 2 teams running in parallel in the junior section. Played my first few years of footy there. I remember playing against Paul O'Brien who was in the other St Peters team. He was flashy and evasive and always hard to catch, until I just watched his hips. Nailed him with some good tackles after that. Fond memories of an old fashioned pie night when a few Melbourne players came down to Bailey Reserve since we were in their 'feeding' zone - Max Walker and Greg Wells (and I think either Tony Sullivan or Stan Alves??). Very early seventies. I got to play 3 games in the little league in the demons colours because of our location in their zone.

At least you got to wear the Demon colours which are infinitely better than St. Peter's red and green stripes. Otherwise, I must say they are a well run club.

Melbourne signed two players who were 15 to play in the U19 because zoning was going to be scraped, the players were David Schwarz and Neitz.

I am .....?
Ans = Matthew Febey
Matthew Febey (born 19 August 1969)
Originally from Devonport, Febey was drafted to Melbourne in 1986 but suffered from injuries and before he made his senior debut got delisted.
He nominated for the draft again in 1992 and was picked up mid-season by Melbourne from his then club Rochester.
Almost immediately he made his debut and established a place in the side, often on the wing. An inaccurate kick at goal, his 44 career goals were surpassed by his 60 behinds.
When Febey played his 100th AFL game in 1997, he and his twin brother Steven Febey became the first pair of twins in the history of the league to both achieve the feat.
He appeared in six finals matches during his career, including the Preliminary Finals of 1994 and 1998.
After managing just two games in 2000 due to hamstring and finger injuries, he announced his retirement.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
