ANB will poll very well based on his important team role the coaches ask him to play

Top 5; Gawn, Oliver, T McDonald, Brayshaw and Jetta


It is interesting how many defenders win club B&F's in successful seasons. Internally, voting is often so different to Brownlow or media awards. But our top three will probably be -

1. Gawn

2. Brayshaw

3. Oliver

Jetta will poll well, along with Harmes, Tmac,  ANB and Melksham. 

1.  Clarry

2.  Gawn

3.  Gus

4.  Lewis

5.  Salem (T-Mac on his heels but missed first 6 rounds)

I think Salem's year has been very underrated and he'll be top half dozen in the Bluey!

Lewis? Surprised me the votes he got last year.  Surprising if he is top 5 this year

Was our best intercept player for the year (with Lever out) and a fair way ahead of any other defender in terms of score involvements.

Turnovers diabolical at times and easily exposed on a fast counter against anyone with pace but wasn't alone there.  An area we really need to focus on solving next year (Hunt back to some decent form and applying some extra ground ball pressure / Other via draft or trade?).

Racked up 21 out of a possible 23 matches so has the potential to get a reasonable poll total to push up the table.

OLiver and Gawn the clear stand outs. Gawn was clearly out best player this year in my opinion

Interesting thing for me is how high Salem, Trac, Harmes, melky etc finish. 

Jones, Lewis and Tmac will all poll in the top-ten with at least one in the top five. It's just how these things work. 

Peter Jackson will finish with mfc at the end of the month ?  ?

He has done so much for us and deserves so much praise and appreciation.  Hope Bartlett and the Board have a special send off for him tonight with fans, staff and sponsors in attendance who I am sure would want to share in the thanks.

I’ll be attending my first MFC B&F tonight.  Pretty pumped.  Any other Demonlanders attending?

Selfies with the stars or taking your autograph book HB?

Remember they are just ordinary humans who happen to play football. 

Hope you enjoy your night.

Got them off you ya old bat. 

If Hogan is leading the Bluey at round 11, I wonder if we might revise our offer?

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
