Not sure why but my first impression was of the afterglow resulting from thermal annihilation !!

Not quite a warm and fuzzy feeling lol

My first thought too when I saw it - or the landscape 5 minutes after the final siren MFC vc WCE

I would have to say that i'm not always simpatico with Osiliks views but Dunn deserves a spot on our banner. In my humble opinion he is in our top 8 players and is arguably our most consistent player and perhaps our most underrated player.

He misses few games through injury, hits targets by hand and foot, is good in the air and rarely gets beaten one on one. Seriously how many other players on our list could tick all those boxes.

If it's arguing against one Nate Jones then it will lose, hands down, every single time.

I've never rated Dunn but funnily enough I do agree that he is in our top 8 most consistent performers (unfortunately I just see that as a representation of where our list is at).

I also don't think he's banner-worthy just yet. Maybe it's that mo etched in my memory from the past few years (I still picture him with it) but he's just never been a marketable player in my opinion.

Yep, fair call. Would you accept one of our second most consistent player?

For now, yes. But I would love to have this chat again this time next year!

PS In regards to the banner, I personally wouldn't mind seeing some faces from the Team of the Century (keep in mind I'm a newcomer so forgive me if it's been done before). Ron Barassi, Jim Stynes, Norm Smith, Robbie Flower to name a few. There are some absolute legends in that team.

If I have such powers then I really need to figure out how to use it for good instead of evil. Either that or work out a way to monetise it. :)

Put a couple of filth players up, see what happens?

not sure why you would take the old one down without first thinking of a replacement

What makes you think I haven't?

I know what players and images I'm going to use I just haven't finished it yet.

I also like the suspense. I wanted to do it before the season started but life got in the way.

I think we should just wait yo see who stands up consistently this year and add them as we go.

Jones is a given.

Put whoever's fit on the banner.

Should be plenty of room for all of them.

If Matthew Whelan doesn't make this incarnation of the banner I'll crack it Dale Kickett style.

Paul Roos and all of his Melbourne premiership players.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders. Windsor's run won't be lost playing off half back. In 19 games in 2024 he kicked 8 goals as a winger. I see him getting shots at g

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9.
