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.

    • 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?

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?
