I realise I should know this, but what's the record for number of Blueys? And consecutive Blueys?

This all started with getting Roos, getting the culture right and getting the players excited about the clubs future and direction....

Take a bow Peter Jackson.

Having PJ is probably the best thing that has happened to the club in the last 20 years. IMO he should be on the banner.

I don't disagree with you what I was suggesting was that he had not said those words.

My experience has been when someone says " I want to remain a one club player " then you know that are off.

So far Jones has not said those words.

Well now he can say it and it will be true.

Amazing what difference a couple of days and one signature makes.

While I have never had any doubt about the character of Nate, perhaps more importantly, this decision says a lot more about the direction this club has taken, which is diametrically opposed to a few years ago. I feel realistically more confident as each day passes. Now all that has to happen is that the injury Karma bus stays well and truly clear of the MFC

I think that you will find that it is Jim Stynes with four (and Carl Dietrich holds the record for the number of Blues)!.

Premiership player is only overrated when discussing Nick Maxwell or Nathan Ablett.

Not sure the Pies would have won the Premiership without Nick Maxwell. Yeah, he's a bit unco and not the most gifted player, and yeah, he's about as attractive as the back of a bus, but the man was a bloody good leader. You only had to see the effect on the team once he did his ankle this year to know that his impact went far beyond what he did with the ball. I reckon Tom Harley is the same.

(Oh, and for my on-topic contribution: Chunk I love you more than it is healthy for a man to love another man who he has never even met).

Absolute legend.

Now I hope the idiots around him help him see some finals action.

I've distanced myself from having favourites as I've become bitter and pessimistic over the years, but I love a fighter, and I love a good consistent player, which has even seemed like too much to ask for at this club in recent years.

I love Jonesy. I want us to succeed just for him.

Ummm... No.

Stynes has the record for most Blueys (4 - shared with Allan La Fontaine), and most consecutive (3 - shared with Jones).

I'd have Jones at very short odds to equal most Blueys and beat most consecutive Blueys records in 2015.

Carl Ditterich won 1.

    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. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov

    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)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    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. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
