When playing at North - hate his stupid run up, hate his flopping for frees, hate how straight of a kick he is for goal and I hate his stupid hair cut. Now that he is pretty much going to be a De

All looking good. Expect him to nominate  melbourne any time now. Both parties are seemingly very excited.

Quite pleased to be getting Ben Brown from the Kangaroos. He looks much better in a Demons jumper! ?

Hope he has an excellent pre-season and gets nice and fit for the 2021!

We just gotta make sure our midfielders lower their eyes and kick the ball to him on the lead.

The next question will be if he will continue wearing the number 50 or choose a different number?

Geelong traded 30 to North for Shaun Higgins.  Let that sink in!

Geelong pay premiums for anyone aged 30 and over. It's club policy to keep their list as old as possible.

He might. He's applied for a job at another club after being demoted.

 

Unless Essendon are going for this yin/yang thing, I couldn't see Mahoney working with Dodoro.  One gets [censored] done, the other is a pest.

When you look at the business we've done over the past few years:

- Hogan out for May which is turning out to be a huge plus

- Langdon one of the best pickups in the comp this year for a second rounder

- Benny Brown basically for Preuss

- This year's 1st round lucky dip draft for Kozzy

- Likely 200+ gamer for pick 50-something  (Rivers)

- Burgo in our fitness dept (worth whatever we paid)

People often lament on the Lever deal, but I reckon we've come out well and truly in front. Now we just need to put the pieces together.

It's hard for a Dees fan, not to love Mahoney's work at this tome of year! We now have the center-pieces around which we can build a decent forward line.

Seems maybe he's already in the right place, for us and for him....

From Marc McGowan on Twitter: Roos trade Ben Brown, R2 (28) and Future R4 Selection (63*) = 789 points Dees trade R2 (26), R2 (33) and Future R4 Selection (76*) (currently tied to the Brisbane Lions) = 1292 points Ben Brown = 503 points (pick 36) * Assumes Roos and Lions finish in same spot as 2020

Not that it matters much but he also seems like a ripper fella off the field. It takes a very likeable character for me to still like them once they pull on a Norf jumper. Very happy he’s now a Demon.

Ex North players to Melbourne. Stephen Icke and Brian Wilson were pretty decent. If Brown comes close to them it will be good.

    HIGHLIGHTS/LOWLIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Melbourne traveled across the continent to take on the Fremantle Dockers in sweltering conditions at Mandurah south of Perth in a game that delivered the club both its highlight and its lowlight in the first minute.  But first, let’s start by doing away with the usual cliches used in connection with the game. It was just a practice match and the result didn’t matter. Bad kicking is bad football. The game was played in severe heat, the swirly breeze played havoc with both teams resulting in

    The Dees were blown out of the water early by the Fremantle Dockers before fighting back and going down by 19 points in their final practice match of the preseason before Round 1. Remember it's only a practice match if you lose.

    TRAINING: Friday 28th February 2025

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you their observations from today's training session before the Demons head off to Perth for their final Practice Match. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning, not much wind, more than a couple of dozen spectators.  The players were up and about, boisterous and having fun. One of their last drills were three teams competing in a hard at it, handball game in a small area. Goody

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the
