    Top dozen in the sanfl?

    Lets see.

    Jamar,Trengove,Tapscott,Toumpas,Terlich,

    To name a few from the Southern state that have missed this honour due to our Adelaide centric recruiting.

    The Stretch kid better be good.

    Even still,Viney is forgiven due to his freakish talent in fathering Todd.

    one of the biggest spuds ive ever seen at the mFC

    I hope we are NOT one of the clubs interested, However would love him to go somewhere else and play good footy, would put egg on a few faces around here!

    This is what makes Demonland such a wonderful place.

    You want Juice to succeed - but not at the MFC - so you can stick it up posters ( and probably point out that the club made ANOTHER mistake).

    How about suggesting we are one of the clubs interested and hope he makes a go of it at the MFC - wouldn't that make more sense ?

    I couldn't give fat rats clacker about Bate , Juice , Jarrah - If there not on our list or are a viable chance of playing AFL next year they may as well be on the moon.

    Reality check people - we brought in 3 blokes who either couldn't gat a game or were being overlooked at other clubs who like us were not playing finals and they all took home trophy's last night. To me shows just how shallow the quality of player is on our list and that some in no way should still be on the list.

    This will take 3 draft periods of moving on 8-10 players a year IMO

    Dad played a round of golf with one of Newtons teachers once while he was on our list. He was described as a guy who could do anything he wanted... Amazing athletic ability with the brain of a surgeon - but lazy. Could be anything but will be nothing because he is too lazy to work for it. I reckon the only reason he stayed on the list so long was because people at the club saw this and hoped one day it would click but it just didn't. Waste of a human by the sounds of it.

    Ouch. As a fellow chronic underachiever, I take issue with this. Not everyone needs to be a brownlow-winning brain surgeon/rocket scientist.

    Probably right. The first was last year.

    NORWOOD into the Grand Final "Juice" 2 goals tonight!

    Missing the last 2 Grand Finals through injury, a bit of Luck won't go astray! Go Norwood (SA Version of MFC) ! GF in two weeks!

    I love all the posters describing Juice as a spud and a dud. Feel free to post your football resumes...

    Toughen up ya kent.

    I think Juice would have a thicker skin than to care what anyone on a forum thinks.

    Or would you prefer we all be touchy feely and diplomatic? What a wonderful forum that would be.

    I'm just not sure how anyone who hasn't played at the level can describe him as a dud. He may not not be up to AFL standard but he has still got the majority of us on here well and truly covered.

    Career Stats of note.

    Huge hanger followed by shot for goal going out of bounds.

    I understand your argument however it's a forum and people tend to exaggerate.

    He can still be called a dud, we'd just be bigger duds.

    Um if you are going to quote facts then you need to get it right!!

    Huge hanger followed by 50 metre goal! Just to cap it of.

    Also, if you go onto the AFL stats page and actually check his career stats , they measure up surprisingly well for a bloke who is and has been exceptionally maligned on this forum, eg Dud, Spud etc! But don't take my word for it, check the stats out for yourselves. Then if not satisfied well as I have said many times on this forum everyone is entitled to their post!

    All I'm saying is the bloke went to S.A after his shot with us, has been cruelled by injury missing the last two Norwood flags, surely not any of you out there would begrudge him a well deserved tilt at Premiership Glory?

    Go Norwood and Good luck "Juice"

    • Thank You Simon Goodwin

      As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

    • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

    • REPORT: West Coast

      The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.
