MFC game 100 this weekend I believe. Been fantastic for the club.

Any special banner planned @WalkingCivilWar?

Edit: he just recently had his 150th afl game, can't remember if he got a banner then. Don't want him to get too much or an ego.

Yes, Rick had a special banner for his 150th. And it was a ripper. 🤗

For players who’ve come from another club, we acknowledge their overall AFL games tally, but not their MFC-only games tally. As you said, he’s been fantastic for the Club. He’s also a big hit with the cheer squad. He’s super friendly and imho is easily the funniest of them all.

Not to jinx it, but I assume DA is preparing an amazing banner for Maxy for round 23 @WalkingCivilWar... 
 

I repeat, no jinx!

Definitely! Only the best for our incredible captain.

Jinx? What jinx? No jinx to be seen here.  🤞🏼 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼

Isn’t it Nibblers 150th as well?

Yes, it is. It will be a shared banner for them. It’s been done before and we still have it looking amazing.

By the by, I’ve been counting the rounds down to Nibbler’s 150 for a while now. Two reasons: first, I love Nibs and I’m stoked for him that he’s reached this milestone, and secondly because I’m imagining all the Nibbler-bashers boo-hooing coz he’s still getting a game every week. Every single week. 🥳🤩🤗

20 more games and we can add Maysie to that list.

May needs to start producing some offspring. His dogs unfortunately don’t count. Cute as they are. 

Oh that’s right! He needs to have kids, I forgot about that. Can’t have a father-son/daughter without the son/daughter part of the deal. 😁

100% I think there should be a round of Mea Culpas as tribute, you guys know who you are, I'll even take you off ignore to read them.

Special request to please reference Max almost single-handedly ruining Cory Enright's 300th with a break-out performance. Gawn had notched up less than 30 appearances by that stage in his career.

What a man, what a leader.

Thank you for choosing Melbourne as the club you wanted to ply your trade at Jake. You're a massive part of all of this and we are eternally grateful. 

His only downside is that he's friends with BT 😄

Stunning! Pencil, charcoal, graphite? 

I couldn't dream of doing something like this. 

Just good old fashioned pencil!  Started with a 2H and then slowly layered in using HB and 3B, then used a mechanical pencil to ensure some of the sharper details were still defined... very much a slow art piece (maybe done over a month?)

That's patience right there.

I recall all the negative media about Melbourne over paying for him at the trade table. 

Here we are 100 games later with a premiership defender and potential future captain.

    POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    The Demons once again went goalless in the last quarter and were run down by the Lions at the Gabba in the final minutes of the match ultimately losing the game by 5 points as their percentage dips below 100 for the first time since 2020.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the
