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.

    With the Demons officially in the final 4, the best pick the Crows can hope for now from us is pick 15.

    Some teams just don't know how to death ride. 🤣

    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.  🤞🏼 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼

    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. 🥳🤩🤗

    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. 😁

    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 😄

    Yes, thanks Layzie!  Filling in all the dark spaces was very calming while watching TV!

    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?)

    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.

    Is this a Gary Sidebottom thread?

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
