I used to love this dude as a kid. He was honestly the best mark but THE worst kick Ive seen at the club . Pull in a screamer and then regularly miss from close in direct in front.  Would put petracca to shame re how many misses hed conjure up from 20-30 metres. Funny in hindsight they still feel the golden years...even though we never even played finals. Hardeman, Wells, Alves, Biffen, Keenan, Bourke, Davis, Molloy, Tilbrook etc. The team is still clear in my mind.  Guess it was the age I was. 

Yeah I remember him and also that of Spud Dullard who was a later version of him although not as good.

FCS you blokes. I keep coming to this thread hoping there is information on Lever and all I get is people wallowing in nostalgia.  Must be a thread for that somewhere else? Please.

Time for a cup of a tea , a bex and a good lay down SUE!!!

Being a MFC supporter, I don't think that will do the trick. Any anti-depressants on offer?

Yes no doubt better for you than a BEX sue. They were quite awful. Eventually taken off the market.

AS for depression I got over being depressed about the MFC decades back.

As my wife told me last night "situation normal Darling"

 


Sorry for the question if it has been answered before- but was he playing any good before he was injured?

Ha ha, the question nobody gets around to.

I think the answer you're looking for is 'will be better for the run'!

It is more relaxing and comforting in a weird way being back in situation normal.  I think I need therapy; probably too late for that.

Surprised the Hun could spell 'confident'.

For the Adelaide game?  Surely hes not ready for AFL yet.

Given the year we've had i'd rather he didn't!

I hear being a Dees supporter is now a recognised indication for medicinal cannabis

Agreed, but some selection decisions this year have confused me - so WTF knows?

Yes he was SPC. His leaving the field coincided with Willy getting going.

If its match fitness we are worried about... yeah may need a full game at VFL level. If its injury or recurrence we are worried about... just as much chance at VFL level of that!

Had a better forward line when they were smoking on game day...

Greg Parke. No. 26? I think. Knockout mark, knuckle man and lousey kick. Just the same, he got his goals. Nabbed almost everything for a slow runner. Tough as nails. Great Demon.

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
