We haven't played Brisbane this year. I can't believe you think we won't beat them in Round 22 at the MCG.

Both players in their 2nd season, hopefully both have long careers ahead and both clubs have great players.

I wouldn't judge Parish on 3 quarters of football.

The same way I wouldn't judge Oliver on his Friday effort against the Swans 2 weeks ago.

Oliver had his season low 24 touches against the Swans.  Poor game by his standards but still a pretty good game for mere mortals.

Agree with your point though.  Parish will be a player.  Wouldn't be unhappy with him at all if I were in your shoes.

Ash35 is a bummers fan, CD, so that's who he means by "us".

He's a nice Bummers fan though - has posted a lot on here over the years.  Be nice.

Yup that's jumping the gun a bit.....if we can't beat Bears, no point making finals anyway.

Thanks for the clarification... I do have some practice being nice to Don fans, 1 of my brothers and my wife are both supporters of "whatever it takes!"

Why do they get Hamish to interview the auskick kids, he is terrible at it

I actually saw it and, to be fair, that kid was borderline psychotic...bless him.

Obviously Oliver is a great young player, but I didn't think he played particularly well against Sydney, yes had 24 touches, but wasn't an influence at all that night. But yes, it was his poorest game this year which is saying something.

Parish can only wish he gets 24 disposals tonight. Playing 'bruise free'. Bwahahaha!!!

Well Ash35, it's understandable given the week before he was ko'd Mal Brown style in Perth. Amazed he got up for the game at all.

I moved 800kms away from my brother and my wife isn't a fanatic (she didn't watch any of the game tonight)

Yep, should have clarified, I'm Essendon

Despite tonights result, our losses to Sydney and Brisbane will cost us playing finals.

Unlike Melbourne. I see you guys making it which is a tremendous effort considering the injury hurdles you guys have faced this year. You should win at least 4 more games [Port at MCG, Saints, Brisbane and NM], which gets you in the 8.

How exactly does one 'prop' Bruce?

And how does one arch ones back, and what is the relevance of being able to achieve  this to playing footy?

Does Broooce arch his back maybe?

Syd and Bris results could have had you 10 - 6 at the end of tonight. As with our Hawks and Freo results - letting games slip can really hurt.

    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.

    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.

    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.
