Tmac Lewis Jetta Hibberd Jones Daisy Viney Clarry Trac Hunt

In that order from left to right based on 2017 apologies to Nibbler

Rather see Hogan (or Lever) than Lewis. No problem with the others. Think of the future!

    Gawn, Hogan, the 2 captains, Petracca & Oliver. That is it, it's far too crowded otherwise.

    Or if going with past champs as some want, just Jako & the Wiz so I'm g'teed to smile. 

    Daisy should be on a banner of her own for an aflw board, best women player in the land & genuine pioneer. 

    (Btw, after we win the flag in 2018 it should be PJ, Mahoney & Goody on the banner in 2019.)

    It's not often that I choose to argue the point with people on this forum (too many big egos), however in this case I shall.

    i can't remember an aboriginal player being represented on the banner ( if I'm incorrect I apologise, I can't of the top of my head remember every banner)) so I believe their contribution should be recognised. Now in my opinion that recognition should take the form this coming season of one of the teams very best players I.e. Neville Jetta. Even if Jetta was one of the teams journeymen I think it would be appropriate to have him or another player from the aboriginal community represented. It is a symbolic gesture and one that I believe would be appreciated by many people in the aboriginal (and wider) community: It represents inclusiveness.

    If your sole criterion is merit, then Neville Jetta gets in. If the banner represented a broader view then he gets in for the above reasons as well. But of course merit was not the only factor driving who did or didn't get chosen for last seasons banner was it!

     

    That is an excellent point DeeDee.  I never even thought that Nev was missing.

    One of our best leaders in the 22 for years now, and he doesn't get a thought.

     

    I feel cheaper now, for not thinking of Nev before this.

    Sorry Nev.

    I think keep Wattsy up there but put him in a Port jumper, for a bit of a stir.

    Top 6 in the Bluey go on the banner,they must earn their spot!!!

     

    Or both captains (there may be only one captain in 2018) and next top 4 in the Bluey.

    How about having Goody on the banner? You know, get behind the coach, a bit of solidarity?

    Crazy idea, I know......

    he get's it on merit I thought.

    2017 did not exactly merit a gold star

    watt about. we just start the season with the Captains, of the team, & of the club.

    Captains, & Pres & Ceo.

    From the start of the season, some player's/admins, could get temporarily elevated, upon top form.

    Like player's of the month, etc.

    Putting kids on pedestals, has knobs on it.

    Let them earn any accolades, as they should the jumper.

    Jetta!

    The fact that he isn't prime minister is farcical in itself.

    Another vote for Nev to be promoted onto the banner!

    Our most wins since 2006,  his first year as coach with a huge injury toll to star players.

    You're a hard marker, DJ.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.
