It's a shame things didn't work out for him at North. I've seen him a few times at the Cherry Tree down in Cremorne and the Denis The Menace cafe round the corner. I think he has a golf apparel business with his brother that should keep him busy post AFL. 

Sports equipment business in the parental family as well. They’re good people. All the best post footy, Dom, and thanks for your service at the Dees during a tough period. Will always remember his big last quarter snap from the southern Punt Rd. corner at the MCG when we beat the Hawks for the first time in whenever. Hope he can get around the boys now.

    I will always remember the pivotal role that Dom played in that amazing first up win at the Adelaide oval. He was a valuable pick up for the time in that he was ready to go straight into the team and make an impact. Importantly when Roos brought him over he made it clear that Dom was expected to play his role, nothing more. 

    Thanks for your time at the Dees, hope he gets on us for the finals!

    Thanks to chronic injuries. Come off it Joe, you knocked him even when he had good games.

    No I didn’t . If he played well I acknowledged it.

    I don’t play favourites.

    Given my display name, I feel obligated to post in this thread and I'm disappointed that I haven't already done so. 

    Really rated Dom when he was at his peak and played a good role for us, still remember that goal against the Hawks in 2016 which helped to break that run of losses to them. 

    hope he gets another shot at it if he wants to. 

    Thanks for everything Dom!

    I've been heavily considering Meven Stay or Gax Mawn, but Sparlie Chargo now has to be contemplated.

    It did work out. We got him during his best years, he was a valuable contributor during the rebuild, we continued to build after he was traded out, and he got a much longer career than the average AFL player.

    Only pity for mine is he couldn’t quite notch up 100 games for the club.

    Sorry Nasher. I meant for him. I liked him, hence the 'Dom' in Domgus Petrogan.

    Should stick with a midfielder in honour of Tom Dyson. I suggest James Jordon - which will then become James Jordon

    Harking back to an earlier era ... Flobbie Rower

    That is one name that should be respected. How about Darl Citterich instead. Both champions, sadly Robbie was taken too early. Imagine if we had him on one wing and Langers on the other.

    Yeah I realised that. I  didn't mean to sound like I was having a go at you it's just that Flower was such a special player and he's gone like Wight and Stynes.

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      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.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      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?
