Nice of you to bring that up, Mono. But, it's "Barrie", if you don't mind! (How soon they forget! LOL)

Humblest apologies Barrie. I was typing phonetically:-). And, it is a long time between drinks! None of us are getting younger.

The point that I was trying to make, for the youngsters here, though is that the last #32 to win a flag at MFC was......

    Apology accepted, Mono! Good of you to bring up the "Good old days". Let's hope the next wearer of the famous #32 will also have the distinction of wearing it in a Premiership win!

    I think Max and Mitch King need to have similar numbers to confuse us even more.

    Anyway, if we can match a few Jacks with a pair of kings, we could all clean up.

    I'm going off memory here but weren't the Febey twins 20 & 21?

    13 for Oliver (looks like McKenzie), 33 for the Weed (Wayne was 33 too), 34 for King and 38 for Hulett for mine. Harmes to move to 26.

    785610-wayne.jpgI see what you done did.

    I feel like watching The Hills Have Eyes actually...

    13 to Oliver. As others have said, looks like Jordie.

    27 to Weideman. Murray wore 27 at one stage for the filth.

    34 to King. Good ruckman number.

    38 to Hulett. Speculative number for a speculative pick.

    40 reserved for our Rookie Pick.

    They were, indeed. And, weren't the Cockatoo-Collins twins 30 & 31? (Not that they racked up a huge # of games...

    Or the Cockatoo-Collins at #30 and #31 - not that we had a chance to get confused as they play, what, ?6 games between them.

    EDIT: apologies Barrie - I jumped ahead before I saw you comments on the C-C twins, who were not it turns out to be great choices to say the least. Who was the recruiting manager then?

    The MFC website just posted the new jumper numbers for the players, as follows.

    13# Clayton Oliver (Another red-head replacing Jordie McKenzie....I hope they get Adem Yze or even Allen Jakovich to present his jumper to him?).

    26# Sam Weideman (taking the number from his school mate Christian Petracca...the only guy I remember to wear number 26# who was a pretty good player was Daniel Ward to present the jumper?).

    27# Liam Hulett (perhaps have Jared Rivers or Anthony Ingerson present his jumper?).

    34# Mitch King (maybe get Jeff White to present his jumper?).

    42# Josh Wagner (the rookie listed player taking the number from Jake "Frank" Spencer. Perhaps get Peter Walsh to present his jumper?).

    44# Joel Smith (Catergory B Rookie and son of high-flying Demon Shaun Smith. I would just have his Dad present his jumper perhaps?).

    33# Jake "Frank" Spencer (showed some improvemrnt in 2015 but needs to improve his decision making and stop being so uncoordinated in his movements...maybe get Jeff Farmer in to present his jumper?).

    32# Tommy Bugg (I would like to see Cameron Bruce present his jumper, if possible?).

    35# Ben Kennedy (Maybe get Anthony McDonald to present the jumper?).

    18# Jake "Apples" (Apple Turnover) Melksham (Hopefully Brad Green could present this jumper?).

    5# Christian Petracca aka CP5 (Gotta get David "The Ox" Schwarz to present this jumper!).


    Anyways, I think that's all the changes for season 2016?

  • Quote

    Yep...

    Would of liked Clayton Oliver to have number 33# but it's no big deal.

    I'm really looking forward to seeing Christian Petracca play in number 5# for the Demons!

    Also would love to see both Clayton Oliver and Sam Weideman play a few AFL matches in 2016 if their form warrants it.

    Yze for mine. What about no.26 for Sam? Luke Williams? :huh:

    I may be wrong but i highly doubt they get club greats in to present jumpers now days?

    Now its more players and family that do it.

    Luke Williams?! Hahahaha! :lol:

    Probably Greg Parke and/or Ian Thorogood would be suitable to hand out the number 26# jumper to Sam Weideman perhaps?

    And it would be nice to keep the tradition of older MFC players handing out jumper numbers to the new Demons recruits. A little bit of tradition and nostalgia is fine I reckon.

    Would be pretty cool to see Allen Jakovich back at the Demons even if it was just for a jumper presentation.

    Allen Jakovich, Garry Lyon, David Schwarz and David Neitz as well as Jeff Farmer were some of my favourite MFC players when I was younger.:)

    We need to keep a tally of how many times commentators call McKenzie instead of Oliver during games.

    I bet there will be a few 'experts' in the crowd who will still be abusing McKenzie next year.

    I recall other clubs doing it. I know they have other commitments and at other clubs but I'd love to see Yze, Rivers and White back at the club if/when these guys debut.

    All 3 were very good players for the club who might have suffered a hit to their reputations in how they left and getting them back in would be nice.

    I'd love to see Clayton Oliver presented with his jumper by Yze before debuting against and tearing up the Hawks.

    You want to see Oliver debut round 11?

    I don't want to wait that long.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

    • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

      Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?
