We walked past it about 2 bays over as we were leaving. Heard a massive roar and looked over to see what was happening - The Wiz once again putting on a show. I had to explain to my 5yo who Jeff Farmer was, gonna rip out the Dynamic Demons 2000 video for him to educate himself.

Saw him many times as an 22yo new Demons member. He deserves it all. He lifted when Lyon was on the field and did some things that are brilliant.

Love him, get him on board

That great mark on Garry Lyon's crook back is one of my first Melbourne memories. I have some fleeting memories of footy games from before then, but this is the only one I can pinpoint the game it happened. I watched it with my grandpa at the G from behind/right of that mark.

It was a ripper, and so was he. Must admit I grew to hate him while he was at the dockers, but that was because he was ours, and he always turned it on against us!

I just hope he is on Kobe's ear telling him to pick the Dee's when the time comes for father son nomination. We need a second coming of the wiz (and not a second purple Jesus).

Glad Jeff's heart still beats true for the red and the blue.

 

In 2000 I took my mate to Telstra Dome when Melbourne played Freo. Farmer was amazing, my mate who wasn't a huge footy fan, still talks about that day!

I think it’s pretty clear where father son loyalty will be placed.

If he’s in Melbourne now, does anyone know where his young bloke is playing? He was with the Mandurah Mustangs.... assuming he’s followed Dad to Melbs?

Hopefully he can do an Open Mike or, even better, a Demonland podcast... would love to hear some of the stories and his thoughts on the club.

The boys on the Deebrief podcast did an interview with the Wiz last night. Was a great listen! Talked about his love for the club, his kids and that famous celebration!

Suggest you all get on your favourite podcast app prontissimo and check it out. It was excellent!

Just finished listened to it right now, wow!! How good is it to hear players like Jeff be so invested in the Dees still.

Jeffy has hope Kobe is going to be good enough and hopefully picked up by the Dees.


Will never understand why the Wiz changed from #33 to #8 after the 2000 season, where he produced one of the greatest seasons you will ever see from a forward pocket.

He lost all his powers when he ditched the 33.

As a tribute to a family member, from memory

Mate! It was a ripper wasn't it! Best interview I've heard for ages. Aside from DL ones of course!

Absolutely loved it how when asked 'Melbourne or Freo?' he said Melbourne without missing a beat!

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

  • GAMEDAY: West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

  • FEATURE: 1925

    A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
