If Demonland were a TV series, I believe we would have reached this episode...

    So Master, you're saying Tebow (whatever) could be our very own version of a bloke who just may be the worst player in the last 20 years?

    No, I don't think that's crazy.

    Good point RTG. Just when you then it can't get more insane, a group of Demonlanders organize a ritual in the MCG carpark in an attempt to resurrect Norm Smith.

    Debreczeni is tipped as a rugby star of the future given his combination of height, speed, strength, kicking and passing game.

    Excellent idea from Essendon. Shame it got out now every club will be checking him out. May as well nominate for the draft.

    But am I not the only one who think there isn't nearly enough AFL talent to be divided between 18 clubs. As long as you don't ruin your existing scouting networks every club should have some interest in non traditional recruiting.

    No Master, there is a lack of depth. Yes, I've chuckled at Tebow but I am keen to get reports on our NZ prospect whose name ascapes me. So I know where you are coming from.

    Forget Tebow - repeat the Irish experiment. It frustrates me that I see so many Irish lads playing for other clubs but none on the MFC list. Look at Toohey & Hanley this year. MFC should be trying to find the next Wight or Stynes. Many Gaelic footballers would love to play professional footy and to live in Aus.

    Tommy Walsh - StKilda/Syd

    Nial McKeever - OneDirection/Brisbane

    Caolan Mooney - Collingwood

    Marty Clarke - Collingwood

    I'm not against the idea but the success rate isn't amazing. But then again the two you mention are very decent footballers, as well Kennelly and of course Jim. It seems if they make it big they really do become very good.

    And maybe we could swoop in and sign Gareth Bale from under Real Madrid's nose.

    How about another natural athlete I watched on the weekend, Phil 'The Power' Taylor.

    Phil would work wonders in player psychology. The guy is a freak big time performer. All he has to do is start well and he's pretty won. The opposition crumble.

    Also has the best moobs in pro sport. I'd pay him to speak to the Melbourne guys as a motivational speaker/bit of light hearted fun any day.

    Is Gareth Bale out of contract and unemployable in his current sport due to onfield knocks and off field media circus? I don't think so.

    You are right about Phil Taylor. He is a freak. MVG and Adrian Lewis can score aswell as him but he barely ever misses his checkouts. It is quite unbelievable, especially in big matches at the Worlds, Premier League etc. I know people will laugh off darts but that is serious pressure.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
