Tom McDonald's goal was the most concentrated moment of pure unadulterated joy I've ever felt as a Melbourne supporter…but I guess I'm biased.

T-Macs goal makes me feel sick every time I see it. It reminds me of how drunk I got that night. Three days after the game I received a tuxedo jumpsuit in the post, apparently I’d ordered it when drunk.

Love Cam Pedersens crucial touch... Without it, Tmac wouldn't have gotten the ball

Gonna miss the big guy! ❤️?

Pedo was a decient part of that whole win, taking a big grab and kicking a goal with about 10mins to go as well.  

He didn’t play that all that many senior games for the MFC, but he had some big moments in some of the breakthrough games towards the end.  I'll never forget Pedo's role in that win we had against Hawthorn - kicked at least 2 goals at crucial times and had a good hand in a number of others.

It was the perfect antidote for me to recover from that dying seconds loss we had against St Kilda a few years ealier when Leigh Montagna stole defeat from the jaws of victory from us in what would have been another hoodoo breaking game against the Saints, but with that recient history in mind, I couldn't fully celebrate the T Mac goal until the siren had sounded.  I still remember that Montagna goal and how it made me feel at the time, but moments like Tommy Mac's goal and a number of others are starting to heal the emotional wounds of the past decade, though I don't think I can fully recover from a case of late onset MFCSS until we bring home that elusive flag.

Like you Chook, I'm a huge fan of Tommy's, but thankfully he is in good company these days with soo many wearing the red and blue competing for the mantle of my favorite player.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders.

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9.
