Played some footy with the fella at Bernard's, quiet type but a really nice bloke.  Was far and away best on in the grand final 2 years back, just had the ball on a string. His kicking is solid,

Please tell me he's a star in the making.

 

Now that we've selected him I believe he was in the running to go at the first pick in the draft.  Total gun who will play from day one.

I don't know a thing about him so I'm looking forward to hearing more from those who do.

Welcome to the best club in the land, Mitch.

I remember watching him in the VFL Grand Final. Had some excitement about him.

AFL hopefuls strut their stuff in VFL finals

Hannan's two goals and 10 marks helped the Dogs to a 32-point win over Collingwood in round 21, which ended the Pies' 12-game winning streak.

The 22-year-old from St Bernards, since taking an old-fashioned hanger in April, has developed his game to a more consistent level in his second season in the VFL.

"He's got his health and his conditioning to a level where he's playing midfield as well, and when he's got his ability to mark overhead and such a long-range left foot on him, he's certainly a weapon for us which is pleasing to have," Hansen said.

Hansen described Hannan as a "blank canvas with plenty of potential".

"I'd certainly say he's got AFL attributes … and he's a good size. Obviously he's a raw prospect in terms of the talent pathway. He's been a local footballer until he came into our program," he said.

Might be a bit of Doggies recency bias involved but I think he can play. We needed more goal kickers on the list so suits a need. Think his forward pressure and speed should allow him to play multiple roles as well. Not unhappy.

I don't like to crap on about drafting this or that player... But this guy can play.

Love it.

    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
