And I am hoping it will be in two weeks time.

He was off the boil against the Cats no doubt.  But he got involved in heaps of plays.  I know he has the ability to convert those opportunities.  I feel he's on the verge of explosion.

Which would be at odds with everything he said in this article haha 

Wouldn't complain if he ripped the game apart on his own having said that!

Even though language gets vulgar sometimes on DL, I do try to keep it G rated when possible :) I had to get that post out quick so that was all I had in the bag ?

That should read a 'Trapper Johnstone like half' Diamond Jim. Have never seen a more influential half played by a footballer than the 2nd & 3rd quarters he played against the Crows in the SF back in '02.

Admittedly though, that game should've been played at AAMI Stadium given the Crows lost the QF and we won the EF.

Just needs to take his time I think.  Rushes it sometimes.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
