beauwdy...

the list is starting to shape up a bit, we're heading the right way

Things must be going very well at club level behind closed doors

Weve been wrist slitting all week after a terrible loss, yet we read that the players seem happy with the club.. Hogans quotes in that article were spine tingling stuff

Go Demons

“He is super-explosive, and he is one of those midfielders who are hard to find. He has an ability that not a lot of people are born with, because he is tall, strong, and he is explosive... so I was obviously pretty flat seeing him go down. He will be a superstar, and he will be back better than ever.”

Still nothing on Twitter from the club yet...

Very poor.

Yeah, its poor as usual. I mean its only one of our brightest prospects committing to the club an extra 2 years. Why would it be on the MFC website or Twitter?

I better be careful though, every time I rightfully criticize the club website someone jumps down my throat (usually TDI).

Geez we better improve by 2018 or there will be an exodus of talent.

Note the below from the article:

Petraccas new deal follows similar extensions for Melbournes pick No. 3 Angus Brayshaw and No. 9 Christian Salem.

FMD if we ain't any good by 2018 I think we will be in even deeper duck poobilies than we are now.

Would be nice to win today for a change to top it off.

Better not be another flogging.

Our young core group are really close, I know macca spoke to them about how when he was at Geelong they all agreed winning a premiership together would be worth more than more money elsewhere, and everything I'm hearing from my friend who is very close with Mates with Jesse suggests that's rubbed off,

I don't think we will have an issue with losing these boys as long as we keep improving.

Side note: at work I spoke to one of the assistant coaches as he was in the office, and he said the best thing about our last crop is petracca, Brayshaw and hogan will get all the attention but he thinks Neil bullen will prove to be a huge steal, potentially the best of the lot.

I would give my right arm for this to be true.

I watched ANB the other week against Sandy and i thought he was cleary the best player for us along with Michie. His aggression and inside impressed me the most.

One of Richmond's assistant coaches right? That's a huge wrap, but ANB would have to be pretty damn special to be better than Hogan. He might end up better than the other two as it's not unusual to find good midfielders around the pick 40 range (Luke Parker, Lachie Neale both went around there).

Yeah ss, I agree but I think the point is he will just go under the radar but is a lot better than his draft position reflects

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return. He has re-signed on to the Demons for 1 more season in 2025. Date of Birth: 12 August 1991 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 229 Goals MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 188

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.

    2024 Player Reviews: #42 Daniel Turner

    The move of “Disco” to a key forward post looks like bearing fruit. Turner has good hands, moves well and appears to be learning the forward craft well. Will be an interesting watch in 2025.

    The Demon’s key defender and backline leader had his share of injuries and niggles throughout the season which prevented him from performing at his peak.  Date of Birth: 5 March 1996 Height: 195cm Games MFC 2024: 18 Career Total: 178 Goals MFC 2024: 1 Career Total: 5

    2024 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver

    Lack of preparation after a problematic preseason prevented Oliver from reaching the high standards set before last year’s hamstring woes. He carried injury right through the back half of the season and was controversially involved in a potential move during the trade period that was ultimately shut down by the club.

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    2024 Player Reviews: #5 Christian Petracca

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury.
