Just had a read of the interview with Bernie on the MFC website. Gotta love this guy! Really think he's got his head screwed on right. Basically said he's never expected anything, but gives his all to whatever comes his way. Says footy lasts for maybe 10 years, but friendships are forever.

Very glad this lad is at the MFC, and hope his great form continues through the next coupla days.

I reckon the top 7 will be spot on with the Bluey. My only question is has Viney played enough games. The way we award Bluey votes penalises players that miss games.

And Wow, Toumpas played 9 games and finished ahead of Howe, Dunn, Dawes....hmmmm

And Stretch(11 games),ANB(11) and Harmes(8)... And he's the whipping boy!

Bernie also named in the Coaches AA team: http://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/2015-09-22/vince-named-in-aflca-allaustralian-team

"AFL COACHES have taken a different approach to naming an All-Australian team, ditching traditional positions in favour of modern tactics."

Its great to have a player that is an AA. Great achievement for Bernie at this stage of his career.

I reckon he got a lot of his Coaches votes because in so many games he was able to lock down an opposing star while having a great offensive game himself!

Really delighted for him.

And nice for him to be named in a team chosen by people who actually know whats what and understand the game.

Not a bunch of hack has been selectors.

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo.
