A bit optimistic I think.

Also, I wouldn't trust MS to know our list all that well. Pretty well stocked in those areas he's trying to break into.

After slotting Hogan, Garlett and Pedo/Weid into the forward line, Hannan would be competing with Watts, Petracca, Vanderberg, Harmes, Kennedy, Kent, Kennedy-Harris, Bugg, Trengove, maybe even someone like Brayshaw, Melksham or Vince who are squeezed out of the middle.

Just can't see it happening.

 

Idiot savant or just plain idiot..?

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,

Club expected him to go top 5 so imagine their surprise when he was available at pick 47.

I'll admit his inclusion surprised me, but given that we have a few underdone players his inclusion makes enough sense.

I wish him well. Wagner and VandenBerg in previous years came out of nowhere after being mature age recruits so hopefully Mitch can continue the tradition.

I am quietly confident that between Hannan and Hunt, the Saints supporters ? will traipse out of Docklands today scratching their heads! :lol:

One player im reeeally looking forward to tonight. He will add a whole new dynamic to our forward line with his speed and X factor. Hopefully he doesn't get overwhelmed by the occasion and settles in quickly.

You would have been happy his game, dazzle.  Some x-factor and a good user of the ball.

No he won't. And a totally differnt footballer. We need them both. 

But he was very good today and seemed to thrive in the speed of AFL. Super impressed.

He was white hot during our run in the second and third and was involved in everything.  I'd love to see a breakdown of when he got the majority of his disposals, because I'd guess it was through that period.

I thought at selection that he was warming the seat for Kent, but has now added some serious competition for that part of the ground.

He's a very unique footballer. I could count the number of left footers who are comfortable using their right with one hand and that's league wide. Hannan doesn't give a [censored] what side he's on.

    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

    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
