How good was the way Matisse Stynes spoke? At 16 she spoke with poise to a massive audience, she did her dad proud.

She speaks well like her father did.

And to think no other club wanted Dusty last time he was ooc.

We overlooked him on draft night, didn't try to get him a couple of years ago. 

Great.

Yep, remember that.  Roos seemed very keen early then did a severe back pedal.  Someone obviously got into his ear - unfortunately.

We lost to Freo in the last 30 seconds and 2 points.  Freo players got 3,2,1. Really fun)($d system clearly.  

Oliver still unknown to the umps 

Same could be said for West Coast when we beat them.

It's beyond depressing

There is a book written on the Demons last 10 years, is there a full chapter written on Dustin??

She was the best presenter, the rest were quite awkward. A beautiful young lady, Jim would be so proud.

Probably because Oliver was handballing it to them all the time. Can't believe how poorly he polled.

I think the umpires need to get to know him and his style.  It's no coincidence that the better known players tend to poll better and young guys tend to be largely overlooked.

Dusty's awesome, but whey're lucky to have Petracca. He's a similar player.

Are the mark and goal of the year voted on by the public or just the AFL?

The public vote, then the AFL decides who wins...

I am glad Oliver didn't poll as well as he should have. Will be better odds next year. I think Dusty, Kelly, Oliver and Fyfe. Winner probably comes within those 4. The quality of talent around at present is insane. Martin is as good a mid as I've seen, and he should get better. It will take a very special player to beat him next year (Martin is only improving). Oliver, Kelly and Fyfe are all unique talents.

Bruce and Daisy reading the club by club votes. Channel 7 displaying the club vote boards. Gets to hawthorn and then goes straight to North Melbourne. They bumble and then come back to tell Dees board. Pretty obvious that we are considered irrelevant hahha. I mean seriously, no vision all nighy..the lowest votes of any club but Carlton. No vision in the highlights package.

And here I am, only knowing who Matt Priddis is on Brownlow night when he started polling well and i googled him.

Tmac getting 9 votes as a forward. I think that's where he plays now, he just doesn't seem to have it as a defender.

Swan was clearly given free reign to say whatever he felt with the betting company’s account, and attendees felt the brunt of it at times.

You know what Clayton Oliver would be if he wasn’t a footballer? A virgin. #Brownlow

What would Dane Swan be if he wasn't a footballer? Inmate 657.

Not far from the truth, a truth of which most people who think he's a knockabout top block, have either forgotten or are too young to remember:

    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

    Join us LIVE on Monday night at 8:30pm—note that this special time is just for this week due to prior commitments. We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
