All top 3 draft picks in that photo.

It shows how much talent we now have.

Wish they would stop crackin gags though.

Viney beating up McDonald is no laughing matter.

 

boys will be boys.

Good to see training getting real. For far too long its been seen as playtime in the park. Now all and sundry might take a step back, have a think about what it is to play footy, for real, at the top level and get on with it.

Hopefully Jack saves some 'angry stuff' for opposition players !!

Jacko was/is a little bit 'special' :rolleyes:

Viney was just his usual overenthusiastic self. 

I thing we have some antler rucking here that's all. 

We move on

I don't think anyone would have believed you if you'd said that by 2016 there would only be three of those players left on our list and six of them no longer in the AFL.

For me, it's clearly a by-product of the standards Viney is setting and the culture the club is trying to foster.

I can remember watching training under Bailey and Neeld and the players were stuffing about by playing tricks and games on one-another throughout the session and individual drills. Where's your head at when you're behaving like that?

What you do at training....

No wonder the coaches keep reinforcing the behaviour rhetoric.

Viney could've been given instruction to ruffle Tommys feathers for all we know.

The more competitive the team becomes, the more battle hardened individuals will need to become.

All that talent and not one A grader, maybe Frawley and he is gone. Who is the guy between Blease and Maric?

I want to know how those matchstick legs managed to hold up the rest of Mortons body 

Edited by nutbean


It's stunning how we managed to stuff up so many first round draft picks from that period - whether it be the player selected, development or otherwise.

The club seems to have landed on the right formula now: hard body and ultra competitive character. Roos' non negotiables.

He kicked 40 goals in his second season he can write he's own cheque, personally I think the AFL should look into some of Fremantles dealings there morals are extremely low.

Oh, yeah.  The "Integrity Branch" or whatever joke name they give it will do their usual under table, under carpet brushing.

Why duck for cover.  Does anyone doubt he will be better than Stringer

So many non-competitive players drafted around that time. Scary really.

Thank christ the total opposite is happening under Roos.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

  • PREVIEW: Richmond

    A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

  • NON-MFC: Round 07

    Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

  • PREGAME: Richmond

    The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?
