I must say i had doubts about him, but i'm glad to admit i was wrong; he has played some very good footy this year and has helped the back line. So i have to say sorry Hibby.

    So good to get a goody (in fact more than one) from the Druggers, after Moorcroft, Heffernen etc

    I forgot about those two, you are spot on, we have struck gold with this one.

    And we all know how we love to see a #*$$@! off druggie supporter:lol:

    Hasn't put a foot wrong all year, one of the best recruits I've seen since following the Dees. 

    Reminds me of steven icke. Not so much in style, more the fact that icky was a brilliant pick up (and also an excellent defender).

    Looked at him very closely in fantasy the year he was rubbed out. Had him very high indeed, almost a keeper. So when we targeted him I was doing cartwheels. I didn't think he'd be this good though. He's exceeded even my lofty expectations.

    The only downside... I wish he was 23.

    Imagine if the Bombers still had him. Horrible thought. 

    They'd have won a bunch more games with him in this form  

    He's exactly what they need IMO.

    Both Hibberd and Melksham had great games yesterday.

    Hibberd was sensational. Robbie Grey and Wingard hardly got a possession. He's fast, heavy and he closes space so well, then his tackles stick.

    Port were badly outcoached letting Hibberd roam free like that. We used him so effectively coming out of defence. I think he'll get tagged more often.

    I don't actually notice him that much in games compared to other players like Viney and Jetta, but he just goes about his game in a no nonsense, business like manner and gets the job done, week in, week out.

    His disposal stands out like dogs balls it's that good.

    Michael hibberd - 2017 best and fairest and recruit or the year leading Melbourne to its finals appearance in a decade.

  • Quote

    A persistent  problem for the last decade has been poor kicking skills. Hibberd and Melksham  have made a huge difference in improving that.

    Hibberd is now in Lloyds rolling All Australian team on the SUnday Footy show. Our only player in the team.

    And of course the biased clown has 4 Essendrug players in there  - including Fantasia, ahead of Jeff Garlett - what a joke.

    This is also off the back of his article on Saturday about how the Bombers 'can beat anyone'.  Turn it up, Velvet.

    Forgot to mention that not only did he add Fantasia in ahead of Garlett, but he dropped Betts for him too.

    No bias at all of course.

      It's Game Day or has everyone given up. Maybe it is because a prime time Friday game is so rare ... double checks today is Friday ... Come on DL'ers support the team one last time for the year!

    • AFLW PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      The Demons return to Casey Fields (aka the Field of Dreams) this Saturday to host the Saints in Round 2. If you’re feeling lucky, head down the Monash for some family-friendly footy—you might even walk away a winner. The first 5,000 adults through the gate will receive an entry into the $10,000 helicopter ball drop. With Casey’s infamous wind, what could possibly go wrong? Closest ball to the pin wins. So spread the word, get down there—and good luck!

    • PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.
