Yeo and Macrae unlucky to miss.

If I had a choice of any player to augment our current list it would probably be one of these 2.

Yeo is so adaptable, could play anywhere and do it well, strong in the contest and in the air.  Macrae is the wingman we need.

What the hell, lets get them both.

Make it happen PJ before you hand over your desk...

    Cant believe there isnt a thread to congratulate Max and Clarry....   guess this one will have to do.

    Well done to both boys.   Though its laughable Oliver was on the bench and not in the starting 18.

    Shane Edwards LOL

    Franklin in the team cos of his name....  and they gave him the captaincy.  Geez.

    And Tom Hawkins didnt make it....  I bet hes crying.  But not as much as he will be crying after Frost destroys him in the Elimination final.

    Not quite sure what your beef is in this thread. I saw around 10 predicted media sides in the last week or so, and all had him in the side (all bar one starting). So to continually try and call out posters for bias seems a little odd.

    Most supporters wanted to see him get his just reward, and as far as I'm concerned, he did, as I couldn't care less about starting vs bench.

    Team supporters are quite often biased about their players  it is a normal situation. My beef is that a lot of the same supporters then can any one who has a different view.

    If people charged with picking the team pick a different player to the team supporters choice it does not make the selector an idiot which is the way same supporters label them.

    All wisdom does not flow from supporters on Demonland.

    Quite often the "experts" actually get it right.

    We scored 300 points more than the Hawks, yet they had 2 forwards in the team while we had none. Did Gunston and Bruest kick all of their goals this year?

    Based on our forwards performance over the year who would you replace those two with from the MFC?

    Giving Franklin the captaincy was hideous. Definitely Shannon Hurn for mine.

    Would like to know why and how Franklin was named AA captain this year?

    Congrats to our guys big Maxey and Clarry the bullet choo, choo train?

    How anyone here gets angry about Clayton being selected AA but starting on the bench is baffling. 

    Find something else to whinge about on news.com.au or something

    A little part of me wanted Oliver to miss out on the final 22 just so I could watch picket blow a phoofa valve.

    Buddy as captain is bizarre. On what basis did they arrive at that decision?

     

    If The All Australian team was to play another bizarro world, alternative universe All Australian Team, I'd want someone with some experience leading my team. 8 All Australians is an incredible achievement. And his "kick it to me" comment was gold.

    I'm not necessarily saying we should have someone in the forward line, just trying to work out what the criteria is for those 2 to get in. With 2 players representing your team in the fwd line, you should've really had a dominant attack, the Hawks didn't.

    I have no idea if they are worthy or not the only Hawthorn game I watched this year was against us.

    Probably the vibe 'layzie', it just felt right to me.

    A great champion honoured, and he is a champion of the game a term that shouldn't be used lightly.

    I get why others don't like it but I do.

    That's a fair view. Can see where you're coming from.

    • 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.
