Had a chat with Justin Plapp after the main training. He seems extremely happy and excited for Sunday!

His interview on the MFC website sounds very positive (as does Weideman's interview)! They are all excited about Sunday.

Did Salem make it out on the track Drunkn?

Never saw him, no. Could've been inside at the gym though

Been impressed with Jack Hutchins in what I've seen of him on tv and during the interviews. Seems to have a level head, good leadership and an AFL hardened body to throw around. Good pick up by the Scorps.

This may be a dumb question, but what colours are people wearing on Sunday? It's easy for the footscray kids, but should we throw on the Dees gear in support?

There are often many supporters in Dees gear at Scorps matches - prob more than those in Scorps gear. It's essentially the same colours (speaking from a male standpoint) and the connection between clubs is well known, so go for it. Hat, scarf, jumper ect.

Think it's actually a good question. Dogs are red, white & light blue. Scorps are red, white & dark blue. So the colours are the same, apart from the shades of the blue, and possibly the shades of the red too.

Makes sense to turn up in Dees gear and miss out the white.

Good luck to the Scorps on Sunday, I'm really looking forward to this. They've been the best side all year and deserve to win, but strange things happen at Shitihad Stadium.

No Don't, I took my Mrs to Bunnings for a sausage on valentines day and she didn't appreciate it.

And she still has the nerve to tell me I don't care about her.

Some women are never pleased.

Surprised she has to travel all the way, to Bunnings no less, to earn a sau-sage. silly sausage, doc

I hadn't heard of them as a clothing company and assumed the Tobacco advertising laws still applied.

 

That sponsorship seems to be working well.

Going tomorrow because its a grand final and its the closest thing to see Melbourne play in one. also looking forward to seeing Casey play and also probably be the last chance to see some of our MFC players play for the red and blue.

 Stupid question but why isnt dawes playing? Did he not qualify.

Yes. Dawes did not qualify.

JKH qualified (he did not player any AFL games in 2016 so the handful of games played for Casey and its DL team was sufficient) but he must have been put into cotton wool because of his injury history this year.

Dogs winning into the GF will have the dogs fans on a big high and wouldn't surprise me if they get a few more through the gate because of it. 

C'mon Scorps, bring them back down to earth!

Pretty sure he did another bit of a hammy towards the end of the year 'Jack'...

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    PODCAST: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    Join us LIVE on Monday night at 8:30pm—note that this special time is just for this week due to prior commitments. We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits. I apologize for skipping our annual season review show at the end of last season. After a disapponting season filled with off-field antics and a heated trade week, I needed a break. Thankfully, the offseason has recharged me, and I’m back—ready t

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
