    Who was his brother? Epic? Legendary?

    I think he was a tailor of some sort?

    Dud thread.

    I guess the beauty of forums is people get to write what they want - yourself included - if you're not into it - do you need to comment, or just like TV can you flick the channel and move on.

    Nicely put BBQ. Although not in the class of his brother always thought Tom was a good player and for some reason unknown to me did not play the number of games he should have. Remember watching a couple of games and Tom showed real promise.

    Actually the Sh!t sibling is Matt who didn't play at all to my knowledge.

    The correct term is sh!t sibling if we are going to do this properly. 

    Anybody own any Chris Jagger albums?

    We didn't go out and get Brayshaw's brother,so that has got to be a plus. Re-Greg Healy wouldn't get a game with the senior side. Looked average in a below average side.O.Mac will prove doubters wrong.

    Did we get the dud brother in this case, or was it Richmond?

  • Quote

    Of those two, I reckon it was us by a fair margin.  But the big loser was probably WCE with a third sibling Travis(?)

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons are back at the MCG for the second week in a row. They face the Suns off a 15 day break without their prized recruit and former Demon champion Christian Petracca. This will be a massive test for the Demons who will be facing a genuine Premiership contender. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: Carlton

      The text messages started flooding in shortly after quarter time. One read: “Is Melbourne even at the ground?” Moments later, as Carlton’s Elijah Hollands kicked the first goal of the second term, the Blues held a commanding 43-point lead. By then, the Demons’ only score was a behind kicked by Brody Mihocek nearly five minutes into the game. Ironically, Mihocek would also register the last minor score of the day after the game took a dramatic turnaround.
