I reckon they want to play both.

Garlett won’t be around forever, so I think you’re on to something here!

    One of the things I like about Hannam is that he accelerates into contact and uses his body to impact the opposition.

    For some reason his movement, snaps and leap reminds me of Gary Ablett Snr... which can only be good. 

    That’s actually not too far of a comparison to make, you and the ‘taller player’ comment by @faultydet are great observations!

    Probably needs to bulk up a little ... Mitch Hannan the poor man's Gary Ablett Snr.

    Dead set freakiest of freaks. I’ve always maintained that Ablett and Carey are the only two players I would pay to go and see if Melbourne weren’t playing

    And to think that Yablett Junior is as good or even better.

    I saw Mitch this arvo at my local supermarket. I nearly knocked into him in the fruit and veg. Every isle i turned into he was there. Honesty, I wasn't following him. 

    Libba jnr was there as well. Fortunately they didn't go into the chemist's across the road together

    Well done to Mitch. Took his opportunity with both hands and was a key factor in the win that got us to the finals for the first time in 12 years.   13 touches, 6 marks, 3 goals, great pressure and almost a couple of huge grabs.

    Wouldn't be surprised if he gets votes from the coaches.   A dangerous player who will only get better.   ?

    Did not think he had it in him, but he was absolutely instrumental in that win.

    Him, Melksham and Hibbo as Ins absolutely won us the game.

    Weids also more than held his own.

    So glad we have this bloke locked up.....  he is such an X factor and he has shown he can deliver in big moments and big games.  Love watching him play.

    I wonder IF we should term it Locked ON... rather than locked In, or Locked Up?

    Very tidy, Handgun Hannan, very tidy indeed. Keeps his feet in a contest, quick along the ground, can take hangers, tackles and harrasses, kicks all types of goals.

    What more could you ask for from Handgun, both he and Fritta are prime examples of the schrude trade business we have completed around our close range picks.

    Hannan a poor man G.Ablett snr,perhaps Petracca is the poor man's A.Jakovich, T.Mac the poor man's W.Carey. We have lots of poor man's whatevers but overall who cares as long as we keep winning.

    Has been a great addition since coming to the Dees, to average a goal per game is not bad considering how many other forward options we have ATM.

    It would be great if it could be C. Wagner.

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
