It is an action shot. It's an action I've been making at most Melbourne games since 2007.

funny I've been doing that since around 2005. even in rnd 1 games when smashed by richmond was it??? the year we were going places, Nevada, California, Bali, ????

I voted Tyson. I've seen enough to know that if he can avoid injury, he will consistently be part of the elite at this club.

I voted yes for a recruit and it went to Lumumba. He's a soldier that would make any AFL team's starting 22 better for him being there. That's what Roos was looking for and what was found, his immediate inclusion into the leadership group isn't a coincidence.

We should just have a photoshop compilation of all the photos from the "Jack Viney made me bleed" thread for the off-season.

Would love to see those every time I logged into DL after the season is done to remind me of what I have to look forward to.

Yes. Like poison.

In fact I'm stitching together a Tyson voodoo doll as we speak.

Why do we make Demonland's job so hard? Surely by including on the banner historical Demons, we have a banner for eternity. You can see from this list that there are plenty to choose from. My favourites, because of their names are Compton and Neitz (did I spell that correctly?)

And Geelong can have Schrodinger's cat.

PS: I was rather taken with James' Demon because of the concept of a novice playing experience. But I understood the explanation as much as I understand our gameplan and gave up.

Can we add Jake Melksham to the banner?

Can we add Jake Melksham to the banner?

After he wins a Bluey or tackles harder and more often than Viney.

Think we could fit a second row, not enough people on there.

Quote

Brayshaw & Viney will be the rocks of our midfield for the next decade.

Did the legendary Michael 'Juice' Newton ever make the banner?

Quote

October 15, 201510 yr

Changes to the next banner imo:

OUT: Dawes, Grimes, Cross, Lumumba

IN: T McDonald, Gawn, Garlett, Brayshaw

Quote

October 15, 201510 yr

Just put the team photo up. I think only 3 or 4 players are missing from it now...

Quote

There should be a space reserved for a 'poster of the week' and their display pic goes up for the week.

But in fairness we'll backdate it to when Hannabal/BenHur/ProDee was poster of the week for 52 weeks before he changed his pic.

Quote

In all seriousness, can we incorporate this quote somehow into the banner:

"I was watching the game and people said ‘wouldn’t you love success?’ and I said ‘it wouldn’t mean anything to me unless it was with Melbourne".

Quote

October 20, 201510 yr

Possibly time to rest the banner back no-one in preparation for its' rebuild ?

Quote

That's just asking for a double-knee reco in the first nanosecond of preseason.

REPORT: St. Kilda
REPORT: St. Kilda

One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.
