The 2017 Keith "Bluey" Truscott Memorial Trophy is being held tonight at the Palladium Ballroom at Crown Casino.

It will be streamed live on Monday night.  http://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/2017-10-05/best-and-fairest-live-stream

In past years I keenly watch this thread for updates from people that are there or watch the club twitter feed.

Will enjoy seeing it live.

Great initiative by the club.  

Who do you think will take out the Bluey?

 

Oliver or Hibberd. No one else even comes close imo.

Should it be 2017 or have a missed something? Thanks for posting the link, it will be interesting to see how plastered Hibberd gets.

WOW!  You slept thru the 2018 season and missed the Dees 13th Premiership^_^??

Thanks ET...getting ahead of myself! 

The option to edit the title isn't available so need to wait till the mods can fix.

Cheers

Might be a bit embarrassing when he gets more votes than Oscar.

Not a good idea. We haven't done the deal with Adelaide yet we don't want to get them even more angry.

If they get too angry he just walks....i think?


I heard Lever, Gaff and Tippett will be there with their + ones: BBO,  Special Robert and Enyaw. 

Hibberd, Oliver and Jetta and then daylight  for the rest.

I was going to take issue at that, then remembered that all of Jones, Hogan, Watts, Viney and Gawn copped injuries.

Garlett deserves a mention as not quite the other side of fresh air. Did well for a small forward in a depleted forward line. His terrific start (20 goals and 35 tackles in the first 8 rounds) was undercut a bit by his inconsistency later in the season.

Would be great to see Nev finally get some recognition for his amazing work.

Agree with the order, but am hoping for an Oliver win.


Winner -    Clayton Oliver

Runner up -  Michael Hibberd

3rd -     Neville Jetta

4th -    Tom McDonald

5th -    Jordan Lewis

Hey Petrac 

Do you think that Clayton looks like or bit like the Great Norm Smith ? He might be our future coach.    Don't shoot me down just saying.


Would love a report from people inside the room on a few matters. 

What the vibe is like in the room in particular with all this business around Watts

How Watts is tonight 

also are the players still hurting after stuffing up r23

How Hogan is after everything he's been through this year 

Edited by dees189227

Yeah, happy with that.  I'll be tuning in for sure.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
