You forgot possibly the best two, the only two really of much value from the Druggies (Gary Moorcraft and Michael Heffernan didn’t set the world on fire,  

Michael Hibberd

Jake Melksham 

Also Jeff Farmer did ok !

 

4 of our current best 26 Hibberd, Melksham, Lewis, Vince is pretty decent pickings. And Pedo, though not currently in those ranks, has turned out to be a dedicated hard working and reliable back up.

The last two ex-Hawthorn players we've recruited (who played a senior game):

David Flintoff - 1988 via Central Districts

[nobody for an unusually long time]

Jordan Lewis - 2017

Despite near miss involving half the squad at the end of 1996, no player crossed directly between the clubs and played a senior game between Roger Ellingworth in 1986 and Cameron Bruce in 2011.

Also I'd like to request a mention of Ross Funcke.

Tom Gilles

2 games for MFC. A 79 point loss followed by a 148 point loss.

If he doesn't have the worst % in club history I'm not sure I wanna know who does

Frosty has been missed in the lists above

Phi, Carl and Peter, any more

Meesen from Adelaide 


Ben Newton from Port a few years back. Thought he was going to turn out as a good player.

You all make me sick. 

Anthony [censored] Ingerson.

Brent Williams and Matty Collins. 

Pity we couldn't get something out of Williams. He had heaps of talent, but no application. Ended up kicking bags of goals in the Eastern Footy League.

We drafted Troy, and were his first club.

  • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

    Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.

  • PREGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons are back at the MCG for the second week in a row. They face the Suns off a 15 day break without their prized recruit and former Demon champion Christian Petracca. This will be a massive test for the Demons who will be facing a genuine Premiership contender. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • REPORT: Carlton

    The text messages started flooding in shortly after quarter time. One read: “Is Melbourne even at the ground?” Moments later, as Carlton’s Elijah Hollands kicked the first goal of the second term, the Blues held a commanding 43-point lead. By then, the Demons’ only score was a behind kicked by Brody Mihocek nearly five minutes into the game. Ironically, Mihocek would also register the last minor score of the day after the game took a dramatic turnaround.
