GAME DAY - Round 15



Recommended Posts

Geez I'm starting to get nervous now. Can't sit still. Reckon if I'd been an AFL player I'd be that guy who has a quiet spew on boundary during the warmup.

There's still an hour to go damnit!

My hands are beginning to shake a bit....

I'm taping the game and keeping an eye on the scores today, can't watch this one if we start playing poorly, just can't handle it!!

I'm at work, listening on MMM as it's all I have access to. Would normally pick ABC but the crap radio here a very coarse AM band and the internet connection is too unreliable to stream.

Hate hate hate not being able to see what's going on, but at least the radio is better than nothing.

Plus the radio is something you can throw and replace a little easier than a TV if things go pear shaped...

Yep, might go to the gym for this one and check the scores every half hour.

Never been so nervous about a game. It's weird how indifferent I was about checking scores against Sydney/Freo/Hawks because I basically assumed a loss was imminent; different story today when everyone expects you to win and a defeat would be crushing.

Neil Craig gushing about Melbourne on 3AW, highly rates the job Viney is doing on recruitment, and the way our squad is finally coming together. Paul's influence and all the people he's brought in can't be denied, and "if you're a member of the Melbourne footy club, you can see a nice, steady improvement getting everything into place."

Good on Craigy i was always a fan of him and i know for a fact the players really loved him and had huge respect for him.

He would be that calming influence to the players that are mentally spent there.

I despise Essendon, my step son an otherwise clever lad is amongst those that can't see what the fuss is about. Not looking forward to the weather but am for the game. Will rug up and enjoy the day. Go Dees...tear them one. Deliver the coup de gras a la Hird. Put this club to the sword...inflict pain. May the ghosts of 2000 swarm to wreak vengeance upon the unworthy...in other words make merry hell Melbourne...it is after all our domain.

Rise Demons......slaughter them

Such beautiful words Beez...

No Mercy Demons

SET THEM ON FIRE...

Melksham out- who I think is their best player, on game day.

We should win and win well.

Having a beer in the bar and reading the record whilst waiting for the old man, and came across a mind blowing stat.

Spencer's disposal efficiency for the season is 78.4... Wot

Its an easy stat when he handballs a fair bit.

You're joking right? Turnover machine. Heppell and Watson are easily their best players.

I live for the day that we achieve complete and utter vengeance for that head on hit of Long on Simpson.

I'm stuck in West Papua thanks to that shitty volcano in East Java.

Thankfully, Australia Plus is telecasting the game. I'll watch it the game on a 32" screen all in low definition analogue.

What a shame the weather is going to potentially even the contest up. I'm looking for a big win.

Gees you get around....

build yourself a padded room so you can watch the game, you should be forced to suffer like the rest of us.

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025. Date of Birth: 7 August 2003 Height: 185cm Games MFC 2024: 23 Career Total: 48 Goals MFC 2024: 1 Career Total: 1 Brownlow Medal Votes: 1 Melbourne Football Club: 7th Best & Fairest: 347 votes

    2024 Player Reviews: #31 Bayley Fritsch

    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
