Wife and Mother-in-Law in the room nattering at each other.

Two year old bouncing ping pong ball off every hard surface in sight.

Have pushed volume up - am expecting serious repercussions but will persevere.

Was that you BBO? They showed footage of a dees supporter getting his shirt off.

Who ever that was is a legend, as James Brayshaw says "get around him"

Loved that the bloke wasn't content with having his shirt unbuttoned and his belly exposed, he had to pull his shirt off and let it all hang out. Good on him!

"Gameday was filmed before a live studio audience."


Spew.


In other news, Nathan Jones is a proper captain. That's nice to know.

Speaks well thesedays does Nathan.

A real 'leader of men'. It is good to see Roos come in and put things right.

MFC is a club players WILL want to come to. I would want to come play at MFC if I was a player (trying not to be bias).

Not enough supporters in attendance to do that.

I reckon I saw that bloke in the bullring after the game and he opened up his shirt there and was showing off a small Melbourne symbol tattooed on his chest.

The thing I really took out of the interview was Jones talking about how just getting the footy was not having a good game and Roos has been disappointed with some of his higher possession games in the past. They even used to disagree about if he had played well or not.

I had heard as recently as early last season that Jones was one of the poorest at the club at blocking for others as per the stats our internal statisticians do. Obviously this has been rectified and he is leading from the front and Roos is building a culture of good habits.

I liked the bit about reading up about Jordan and becoming a better captain and lifting the team to another level.

Let's hope he gets to show it off more often than not this year Wrecker45.

A much more tasteful version on Joffa's golden jacket.

It's on youtube. Can't link ATM, but search up 'AFL game day 26 04 2015 PDTV x264'. There are a bunch of other footy shows on the channel as well.

It's already been linked in this thread mate

Watching Jones develop has been one of the best things during my time watching Melbourne. When he came to the club he was shy but humble and we really didn't know what he would be. He's had to work his proverbial off to get where he is and deserves every bit of the plaudits he's getting.

He's not the best player in the AFL, but he is one of the best leaders in the league.

[EDIT] Also funny to remember the first time he was on a tv show. He came on to the footy show as one of the players just in the crowd for a quick 5min spot. He was so nervous he started sweating and you could see it dripping down his bald scone! To Sam Newmans credit he did try to help him through it.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
