Jake Melksham 150 games

Nathan Jones 100th game as captain (5th in the clubs history)

Angus Brayshaw 50 games.

 

Bernie Vince 100 Melbourne games??

 

(One day he'll belt out a few pups for the father son rule I am sure of it....)

Wasn't too long ago we were worried that Gus might not make it to 50 games.

Now I can't wait to see him play 200 in the red and blue.

Thank you Essendon for Milkshake and Pig

Thanks Taylor and Viney.

We paid massive overs for both, if I remember the threads rightly. The Melksham trade was particularly a total writeoff because he’s a soft spud, and he spent the first year rubbed out so there was no way the future seasons he spent on the list could make up for that one lost one.

I just hope that the final score is in our favour, like when we ruined the after party for Corey Enright's 300 milestone game at the Cattery in 2015.  That will do very nicely thanks!

This weekend is a personal milestone for me in that it will be 200 weeks since I last drank alcohol.

I've told friends I'll have a beer when Melbourne wins the flag.   After such a long time off it, I think I'd be less of a two-pot screamer and more of a Cadbury's (a glass and a half) or even an Omo (less than a third of a cup).

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
