Yes it's certainly better to be monsters than monstered. Apart from the talls you mentioned we now have strong bodies throughout - Jones, Magner,(maybe Wines), Rhodan et al.

For too many years I've watched physically inferior Melbourne sides simply pushed off the ball. Like schoolboys against men - which it was in some cases. No more. Whatever else Neeld may or may not achieve he has provided us with real depth to compete physically with the rest of the comp.

T.Mcdonald, Garland, Davis and Dunn are also over 190cm.

Too many of the same kind.

Do we really need Sellar, Gilies and Davis?

Why do we have them, considering we have Pedo up forward, and Watts, Dunn, Mcdonald and Garland down back.

Just cause neeld is 190cm, dosnt mean the team has to be moulded in his image.

Denham is a chode, id never even heard of him before I came on this site. He sounds like a nobody

Thank you Jbag for broadening my education - specifically my vocabulary. I just researched the previously unknown "chode". Fantastic- I cannot wait to use it. In the most inappropriate circumstances of course.

I believe Mcdonald is about 197 and 95, and wants to be heavier! bigger than Chip somehow

I dont like this.

With all these big players and Morton gone who am I going to have a go at for being too light when I'm making my beer belly bigger at the footy?

Not a happy camper

New one for me to. Never hurts to learn something new :)

I'm hoping someday soon, supporters will be making a list of the stars we have on our team. The number of brownlow medallists, number of premiership players, all australians etc etc.

Hopefully, then, the lists of age, height, weight etc will stop.

On the Kevin Bartlett Show they used to play the song Denim and Lace when he came on. Is that because he is a chode in denim and lace?

Well my old mans favourite saying is "no matter what time it is during the game, big men stay big." He also says that if he was a coach he would field a team full of red heads as they just seem to be angry at the world so they make good players.

I think our balance is a lot better having a few 'true' position players. As in a giant Clark at FF or CHF with Dawes sharing and Pedro obviously swapping with Jamar in the ruck.

They along with Watts and Frawley are the only real certin starters IMO and that doesnt necessarily make us a giant team.

Gillies is back up for Chip, no more no less. Gawn will still take time to develop the required leg strength to become a good ruckman which will be in perfect timing when the Rush is finishing up. Spencer is just depth for now. Sellar is a role player and will play against teams with multiple monster forwards.

Fitzy will pressure Pedro and Dawes to keep performing at there best.

I think the amount of talls on the list is just right

    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.
