What's classier though?  That hand pass or that Salem kick?  Jones must be pinching himself.  Stuck by all these years and we're finally coming up roses! 

 

I don't know that we need to compare

Both were classy and incredibly quick thinking - bodes well for our future having guys like those on our list

    Still roll this one out for a listen every now and then. I liked this version of the band best with Tim Gaze on guitar...

    Now...what was this thread about???

    Clayton Oliver, not sure about 'Fence' and his dream state but we've got a beauty here.

    Apart from his aggression, vision etc. I really love how the ball seems attracted to his fingers, his touch on the footy, it's like a magnet. The ball seems to drawn into his hand.

    Agree Clarry Choo Choo my Rising Star!

    Re Ariel I have a Signed Vinyl and CD versions of the same by Mike Rudd and the late Bill Putt. I also have the criminally underarted Album "Rock and Roll Scars" again both signed. Tim Gaze?? an underated Australian talent, excellent guitar player and great voice!

    Now back to Clarry Choo Choo I would love to see him through $cully in no uncertain terms and play a dominant role in our first big win of the season!!

    Just announced on the MFC website that Clayton WILL make his debut this week!  Well done son!

    Great vision to see Roosy tell the kid he's in.  Warms the cockles.

    Showing your age Fence, but I used to love this band.  In their heyday they were world class.  Used to see them at Ormond Hall opposite Wesley many moons ago.  Tim Gaze a very underrated guitar player.  The late Harvey James did a fair job in that regard as well. Memories!!!!!!!!!!!

    Well deserved. I thought he would be eased into it, but he made it clear during the NAB Challenge he is already best 22. Good luck and let's hope it is a win to remember for him.

    Video up on the website of Roosy letting him know he's playing.

    lol I never would have made that connection.. must be because I don't have kids yet!

    “He’s forced his way in with his actions and the way he attacks the footy – how clean he is [and] how hard he is,” Roos said.

    “The way we want to play our football is the way ‘Clarry’ plays his footy naturally.”

    How would you like to have Paul Roos say that about you leading up to your AFL debut?! Kid must be on cloud nine

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
