Somewhat ironic that 4 players were nominated for Rising star, and he wasn't one of them!!

 

Then there is no chance the Rising Star curse will strike him.

Yeah that is a surprise, anyone able to shed some light on what he did to win that award twice?

So far no surprises. Hunt best young player, Grimes best VFL player, Jetta Club Ambassador. Is there a womens B&F award again this year?

Say what you want but Colin Sylvia was one of the best at the club when it came to charity work and positive off field visiting kids at hospital etc.

This. Used to do things like pop into the Royal Children's Hospital unannounced and stay for hours talking to young Melbourne supporters or just kids in general. For all his faults, he was incredible in this regard.

1 - Gawn

2 - Tyson

3 - T-Mac

4 - Viney

5 - Jones

Good on him. Never heard about any of this.

Yep all credit to him he never sought the limelight for it. I know a nurse who used to work there who was amazed at how often he'd come in and how long he'd stay for. Said he was an absolute gentleman with the kids and families which doesn't always fit with the Sylvia we knew. I don't know him from Adam but always felt he's just a big kid who's never really grown up.

We (self included) can be overly harsh on players and other Demonlanders based on a game or 2 of football or a post we don't like. It's why some love their pets more than people ?


I guess I forgot Vince had a good first half of the season

Peter Jackson now speaking. Expects a good financial result this year.

I think there was an article recently saying that only 8 clubs would be in the black this year. Hopefully we're one of them.

It's also easy to forget how good Jonesy is with more spotlight on Max and a couple of Jacks.

consistently performs and has done so for years now.. Has the odd week where he doesn't and Demonland rips him to shreds. 

Stupid people are stupid.

How far back is Big Max ?

and where is Wattsy ?

Special award to Debbie Lee for her contribution to women's footy. Got a standing ovation.

I didn't realise she has played 302 games of football!  In fact I had no idea there was a raft of leagues for women's football. 

This is an extract of her achievements from a release on mfc website, when she was appointed:  Lee has been a longstanding figure in women’s football, both on and off the field.  She played 302 games in the Victorian Women’s Football League (VWFL), founded women’s football club VU Western Spurs (formerly Sunshine YCW Spurs/St Albans Spurs) and was VWFL president from 2004 until 2012.  Lee actively pushed for AFL Women’s Exhibition Games at the Melbourne Football Club and has driven the club’s women’s football program since 2013.  This year, she was included in the AFL Women’s Football Advisory Group, which makes recommendations for the inaugural National Women’s League.

The standing ovation is richly deserved.

Ron Barassi Junior Trophy for leadership - Jack Viney 

Next captain.

Stands to reason.

 

Hopefully Max's boot is empty to fit in all the silverware he's taking home

  • CASEY: Richmond

    The winds finally returned to Casey Fields for the Demons’ third home game of the VFL season, and its impact was immediate. After two opening rounds played in uncharacteristically fine conditions, the Anzac Day clash brought back the familiar gusty conditions that have been a feature of the region at this time of the year.
    Forced to kick into the breeze first, the slow-starting Demons faced a tricky opening against an enthusiastic young Tigers outfit. Casey responded by turning the contest into a scramble, pressuring Richmond into errors and missed targets. The tactic proved crucial, keeping the game tight for three and a half quarters before the Demons pulled away with the autumn wind at their backs.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    It seemed as if the whole purpose of the Anzac Eve clash at the MCG between the Demons and the Tigers was building toward that single, unforgettable moment when Kozzie Pickett soared above Campbell Gray and all but fittingly etched his name onto the face of the 2026 Frank ‘Checker’ Hughes Medal.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day on Friday night. ANZAC Eve. The big stage at the ‘G. The Demons return to the spotlight for one of our most significant nights on the football calendar, taking on the Tigers in a clash that always carries extra weight given the gravity of occasion of the commemoration of the ANZAC Spirit. Under the lights, in front of a packed house, this is where moments are made. Can the Dees rise to the occasion and deliver on the big stage, or will Richmond spoil the night? All the build-up, discussion, and in-game reactions here. Go Dees.
