This topic seems oh so simple, but who do we like? As a drunk 36 year old sitting at a pub in Amsterdam, I was perusing DL and realised I hadn't seen such a topic. Basically, who's ya boy? Who's jumper number would you get on your back after a 2018 flag?

Funnily enough, as a drunk 31 yr old in a pub in Amsterdam, I've pondered this very question a number of times this year.

Always went 5 for Schwarta so if I was a kid prob Tracc.  

Think 31 will get pretty popular again in coming years...

    Clarry has me hitting the rewind button more than anyone else. Probably the most skillful player I have ever seen.

    Right now I'm  lovin it when crazy horse frost gets his hands on the ball.

    Viney for his courage and the way he would run through a brick wall for us.

    Gus for the way he's come back and improved. Our next captain with Viney once Jones retires I reckon.

    But geez if we had 40 blokes with the resilience and never say die attitude of Sir Neville Jetta we'd be unbeatable.

    Every second week he seems to get poleaxed and he just goes again. Never let's a tackle slip.

    Has to be Nev for mine.

    You know things are going well when your discussing who's your favorite player. We have so many likable players now, even other supporters like a lot of our players; they're talented, with admired personalities. 

    Without thinking about it too heavily, Jonesy. The amount of times over the years he's wriggled his way free form tackles to find a teammate with me saying 'Jonesy too good' is great. As is he!

    Hibbs for me.

    Brings maturity to a young list. 

    Reads the play beautifully. The backline can set up around his instincts, attack, defend, lock down or get ball.

    Reliable, good decision maker, makes others better players, rarely makes mistakes and can bring some "x" factor

    Stays calm, remains humble, leads by example.

    Lot to like about the whole list these days.

    Aside from thw obvious ones i really enjoy having Jake Milkshake in the side. Always hated him as a bombers player beacuse he always  had a few goals in him, same reason i enjoy watching him play for us

    Jeffy remains a favourite despite the lack of job security. It will be a shame if we don't get to see him light up the G in September but understandable given his dip in form.

    I'll never forget Jones' service during the dark times and for that he'll always be a favourite.

    Vines, Nev and Clarry. Self explanatory.

    Vanders aka vandenFyfe aka the Punisher is rocketing to the top of my list. As Darcy would say, I love the way he goes about it.

    Oh and Fritta.

    Ah to hell with it. I love em all.

    It’s like choosing your favourite child but on present form James Harmes is becoming one I like to watch the most mainly because of his exponential growth as a player. He has been critical to our recent form by locking down the opposition best mid and getting plenty of his own damaging ball.

    Max, for lots of reasons, just ahead of Clayton.

    Salem. 

    Because I can’t split Nev and Clayton.

    Tom McDonald. Hence my avatar. Looks like me. Plays like I wish I could play if I were a little taller. Actually plays like my dad a bit, from all reports.

    So basically, I'm a narcissist.

    Huge respect for Neville Jetta.

    Love knowing how much it must annoy Essendon supporters that Melksham is doing so well now.

    But you can look back over years of my posts and you'll see, it has been Angus Brayshaw at the top for me for a long time.

  • Quote

    hunt and harmes- both were late picks,possibly backups to brayshaw and petracca.

  • Quote

    Very hard to split Oliver and Brayshaw but Oliver is just ahead for me, haven't loved a player this much since I first saw a young no52 from Shepparton.

    Hard to go past Nev when he rarely blunders the ball nor loses a contest.

    Oscar McDonald. Gives it 100% every week and is very resilient. At the footy when he wins his 1v1 nobody really gets behind him, so I love to give a good shout of "onya omac!".

    Frost and AVB - loving what they're contributing back there without Lever. Stepping up when the stepping up was required!

    • NON-MFC: Round 05

      Gather Round is here, kicking off with a Thursday night blockbuster as Adelaide faces Geelong. The Crows will be out for redemption after a controversial loss last week. Saturday starts with the Magpies taking on the Swans. Collingwood will be eager to cement their spot in the top eight, while Sydney is hot on their heels. In the Barossa Valley, two rising sides go head-to-head in a fascinating battle to prove they're the real deal. Later, Carlton and West Coast face off at Adelaide Oval, both desperate to notch their first win of the season. The action then shifts to Norwood, where the undefeated Lions will aim to keep their streak alive against the Bulldogs. Sunday’s games begin in the Barossa with Richmond up against Fremantle. In Norwood, the Saints will be looking to take a scalp when they come up against the Giants. The round concludes with a fiery rematch of last year's semi-final, as the Hawks seek revenge for their narrow loss to Port Adelaide. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • CASEY: Geelong

      There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

    • REPORT: Geelong

      I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?
