I was thinking about past Demon players that went on for one reason or another to other clubs and I came up with this 22, no room for the Mighty Morton, feel free to add or subtract. I'm sure there is plenty of worthy players I've missed. The only criteria being that they must have played their first senior game with MFC . You miss out Big Carl.

B: Campbell. Dunne. Beveridge.

HB: Howe. Rivers. Frawley.

C :  Tingay. Wells. Alves.

HF: Armstrong. Hogan. Lovell.

F: Watts. Jackson. Farmer.

R: Jolly. Thompson. Callery. 

Int: Martin. McClean. Scully. Dyson.

    Danny Hughes should be in. And Spalding. Martin Pike? 

    I don’t recall the Danny Hughes full back moving, and the other younger one HFF was hardly a star. 

    Which one are you referring to?

    And Barassi was a big omission. 

    Did Norm Smith move at the end of his playing career?

    I assume the Jackson is Mark, not Ricky. Didn't the whacko one play senior football somewhere else before he joined us?

    Need to have a closer look at the rules for selection of this team, too. I'm not sure Hogan should be eligible for selection until he's played a senior game at another club.

    Danny Hughes played for the Crows in their first year about a dozen games

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
