What absolutely heartbreaking, gut-wrenching news. Unimaginably sad. 

Condolences to all her family and friends

I would want the world to end if I lost my wife.

 

Thoughts are with Brad, his kids, and family.

No, no, no. This is terrible. So young and with two little boys. Sincere condolences to Brad, his family, his wife's family and their friends.

May God look upon Brad and his two boys. They would  surely have plenty of support and hope the MFC start some sort of fund to help them in the hour of need.  God Bless.

Cardiac arrest according to news.com

Still so sad about this. I would not survive if I lost my mum or my partner. My heart breaks for those kids and for Brad.

I saw this yesterday on Brad’s Instagram and have found myself thinking about it multiple times over the past 24 hours. What an absolute tragedy, been recently married myself I couldn’t imagine what it would be like to lose your wife let alone the mother of your children on top of that. 

Really puts life into perspective, a bad day at work, stuck in traffic, the small minute things that we get caught up on in our day to day lives really mean nothing. Let alone a lot of us getting caught up on the current state of our football side, it’s sad it takes tragedies like this to realise what is really important in life.

I am sure the club will get around Brad & his family and provide the support needed 

Great post. 

Heartfelt condolences  to him and his family.

Absolute gem of a bloke.

I met Brad 5-6 times and he was such a great bloke. Friendly. Smiling. He stood up despite the Demons dark years. 

I am sad for Brad, his boys and Family and friends for their loss.  Such a tragic loss.  It’s heartbreaking.  MFC must ensure he is supported now and watch over him.

Heartbreaking to hear, my deepest condolences to Brad and his boys. Very tragic.

Others have said it. Perspectives are altered. I hope Brad has support that he will need,

As a Melbourne player he earnt our applause. He gave us so much enjoyment we can surely provide him with any comfort he desires. 

This is an event that can define the club, I hope we can meet the challenge.

Anna and I have a mutual friend. The complications from her eye surgery is extremely rare. It occurs in 0.9% of cases and to varying degrees. Sadly in Anna’s case it was the most extreme degree.

I had exactly the same surgical procedure in January and I vaguely remember the surgeon discussing this sort of complication but as it was an emergency situation and the alternative was to lose my vision, I put this complication in the back of my mind and went ahead and had the surgery with no complications- thank God.

Rest assured the MFC community will rally around Brad and their young family. I feel so sad for everyone involved. ??

Maybe a blood clot that went to her brain/heart. I'm only assuming its something along those lines as it was reported she passed from cardiac arrest.

@jane02 would know more.  It really sucks, thats for sue.

So very sorry for Brad & his families.

I've been stuck for words, stunned.  I didn't even recall Green'y was married...  and kids as well.

Just ah, what a loss.  

I don't know how anyone can... It would be tough to even carry on.  

I guess, the purpose in this is the Kids,   that/they gives one the strength,  to maintain momentum.

Very moving to see Brad's two little boys run out with the team.  He looked very proud.  Undoubtedly, their Mum also was.

    HIGHLIGHTS/LOWLIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Melbourne traveled across the continent to take on the Fremantle Dockers in sweltering conditions at Mandurah south of Perth in a game that delivered the club both its highlight and its lowlight in the first minute.  But first, let’s start by doing away with the usual cliches used in connection with the game. It was just a practice match and the result didn’t matter. Bad kicking is bad football. The game was played in severe heat, the swirly breeze played havoc with both teams resulting in

    TRAINING: Friday 28th February 2025

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you their observations from today's training session before the Demons head off to Perth for their final Practice Match. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning, not much wind, more than a couple of dozen spectators.  The players were up and about, boisterous and having fun. One of their last drills were three teams competing in a hard at it, handball game in a small area. Goody

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the
