That was only a matter of time at least it's not a calf, worst decision they have made getting him in on 3 year deal 

Buckley (and his Uncle Eddie) say "phew"!

Our list management has been pretty good but did we do enough to convince Howe to stay?

A bona fide star.

I got the impression we did the opposite of convincing him to say.  

He's become a good player at the Pies, but he was a good player at the MFC, too. Let's not forget the frustrating inconsistency he showed when here though.  Like stmj says above, I'm not prepared to bet on his output being sustained yet.

Dunn and Howe starred on the same day.

We all know that has never happened in Hunan history.

We will beat Collingwood  like a disobedient little shoe shine boy using the wrong colour nugget.

That's why Westerners invented guns isn't it, to deal with recalcitrant shoe shiners...These days we bomb them. The trouble is, my friend Heimie would say, is that if you keep bombing them who's gonna shine your shoes?

i think goldsack might be out too, he could barely use his arm in the last quarter

There will still be 22 vs 22 [at least at the start[ - and we need to beat whomever they put on the track!

Richmond are a lot better then many think. We have derided their supporters for so long, and laughed at so many narrow losses, that we are not seeing them for what they are - a very good TEAM. 

 North are rubbish

Collingwood are very beatable. They are poor in close at the contest where we are strong. Bring on QB. 

Gold coast are another MFC. They can beat anyone and lose to anyone. Hard to read where they sit. 

Essendon are another MFC without our talent. Once again, they can win or lose to any oppononent.

GWS intrigue me. Loaded with talent and very skilled, but get challenged by lower sides. How good have they been tnis yeaer on the MCG? 

Freo are poor but well coached. 

And the Dees? I am still waitint for the  its and pieces we have shown to click for one full game.

QB will not be easy. We will go in as Red Hot Favourites before the bounce. 

We all know how well we handle that burden. 

Over to you Goody. 

More a matter of over to the on field leaders - they are out there, not Goodwin,  and they need to show their younger players that they mean business from the word go, and don't flag until the final siren.

    The premiership defender had his best year yet as he was given the opportunity to move into the midfield and made a good fist of it.

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatchers Kev Martin, Slartibartfast & Demon Wheels were on hand at Gosch's Paddock to kick off the official first training session for the 1st to 4th year players with a few elder statesmen in attendance as well. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning. Joy all round, they look like they want to be there.  21 in the squad. Looks like the leadership group is TMac, Viney Chandler and Petty. They look like they have sli

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    2024 Player Reviews: #31 Bayley Fritsch

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    2024 Player Reviews: #18 Jake Melksham

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return. He has re-signed on to the Demons for 1 more season in 2025. Date of Birth: 12 August 1991 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 229 Goals MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 188

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    2024 Player Reviews: #39 Koltyn Tholstrop

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
