Nice to remember Jakovich in particular that game against North when he kicked 11 goals and about 10 points and was just running around getting the ball for himself, he was a freak!

schwartz before he got injured, the nine goals against the Swans, he was going to be a superstar!

Farmer kicking 8 against Fremantle at Etihad!

But it’s gotta be about 2019:

Melksham Weideman Petracca

ANB TMac Spargo or Farmer if he comes good

Gawn & Preuss dropping into forward line

Oliver swapping with Petracca

Adding May, Preuss and KK just brings another dimension to the team. If Hunt can get it together and J Smith take the next step it’s going to be hard picking a best 22! Roll on round one, can’t wait!!!!!

Gawn Brayshaw Viney

Harmes Oliver KK

all in the middle feeding the forward line, sounds good!

    Ppl and media still caught up in 'fwd line' rubbish.

    It's about a team...a delivery system...game style. Not about 6 blokes who may or may not fire etc. 

    Happy to have best TEAM...others can have best bits n pieces ;)

    It always was,  mr beel'.

    But Mfc doesn't seem to get that,  along the journey of the decades.  I think we are getting it at the moment... thank godAFL

    HF: Lyon Schwartz Davey

    F Farmer Fanning Jakovich 

    IC: Neitz

     

    Premise is based on their best efforts.

    Love Jurrah but Davey invented/took Fwd 50 pressure to a new level.

    And I love Neitz but Fanning as a big game performer would be the starter.

    87ish to now, but excluding robbie:

    b: jetta - wight - ingerson
    hb: s febey - neitz - b lovett
    ? tingay - g lovett - davey
    hf: lyon - schwarz - jurrah
    f: stynes - jakovich - farmer
    foll: gawn - oliver - t viney
    i/c: jones - j viney - yze - green
    emerg: prymke - woewodin - vince - whelan

    but that's just a random run thru without 'thinking' about it...

    Surely Tommy Mac (as a forward) better than Prymke , and Bernie.

    Farmer?

    I wasn’t aware that we had a Farmer on our 2019 list however I like the way you think!

    (Maybe we have to make do with Garlett? )

    He was threatening someone to a trip to his Wolf Creek dungeon at the manor in another thread.

    I shudder to think that I may be responsible for the potential further degradation of a fellow human being by my inartful comments.

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
