I hardly think he is "exactly the sort of player we need".

Nor was Jack Watts until this year.  

Fitzy's history isn't written yet and while I don't think it will be a great one there are many players I've misjudged before they've retired.

Fitzy seems like a ripping fella, gave what he could for us in shocking circumstances and is now about to play a final for the team that's won the last three flags.  Fair effort I'd say. Good luck Fitzy and I hope you win and are BOG, not because I like the Hawks but I just hate Geelong even more and you're the best thing on either team as far as I'm concerned. 

I'd love to see both these teams struggle for a few years like most clubs do.  Hate them both.

I don't often understand your posts, and I very rarely respond as it is pointless. It's probably the fact I've been on a 15 hour flight and am now delayed by 5 hours for my next one....But sweet Jesus, are you the full quid?

Some poster was bemoaning MFC letting him go, just highlighting the scenario if he had stayed, you really need to read the whole topic if you have a five hour window  More than the full quid actually

Anyone going to the game tonight with binoculars that can provide up to the minute updates on Fitzy for the benefit of Demonlanders?

I'm at the game and hawks are warming up, I thought I saw Fitzy but it was just an adolescent giraffe.

Well good luck to Fitzy. He only played in his 3rd win the other week. Seglar on triple m footy just told a story when Fitzy first arrived at hawthorn he said to Shaun Burgoyne and said you have won more flags than I have games. 

Good luck to him, I bet a few of his ex teammates are a bit jealous and I hope he takes his opportunity.

I always find it surprising on here when a player leaves or is delisted, most say good riddance, then if by circumstances they achieve something at another club, the petty childish comments rear up, the only player I would not wish success on would be Scully because he lied, and showed no integrity

Nice one cards.

Can imagine Fitzy and Gys ripping up the floor with lollipops and flouro necklaces .

Jordan+Gysberts+Melbourne+Demons+Trainin

Wonder why Gysberts couldn't manage an MFC polo or jacket - he must have had one by then.  An insight in to his idea of professionalism perhaps, or perhaps an insight in to how well (or otherwise) the MFC delivered its expectations of professionalism.  

And Fitzy just... heh.

I said that if he has a big september it could be one of our worst list decisions for a long time knowing that we might be going into trade week looking for a ruck/forward while having persistent injuries to Dawes & Pedo. Plenty of people including me thought he showed potential and wasn't a list clogger last year. It's not an attack on the club, just a mere list management opinion, hardly petty and childish. Your vitriolic offended reaction with the "wow 6th post" and now calling my opinion petty, is actually what is childish and petty. Just keep it to a civil footy discussion without the attack if you disagree. It's not difficult

Biff they would have been into see you on the way past after leaving the Saint.

Gys would have had one of those lollie necklaces for sure.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
