    Bloke gave us some exciting times as a Dee. Will miss him at his best.

    Best wishes to Dec as well, seemed like a hard worker.

    Garlett and Keilty depart

    Couldn't agree more LN, loved Jeffy and his time at the Dees, he was electric and had such good goal sense. Wish him all the best. A Demon forever.

    One of the players who helped nudge my wife into enjoying football. Both the 'fun' things he did in play and the moments of cheekiness he provided.

    Really glad we had him these last few years, one of those small wins that help a club grow. Plus, we got to be in the 'have ex-Carlton players kicked more goals than Carlton this week?' game.

    Had a disappointing last couple of seasons but Garlett added some excitement to the side over the years. At his best, he was a seriously dangerous small forward. Came basically for free too, with the added bonus of enabling us to laugh at Carlton. All the best Jeff.

    Thanks to Keilty for the services as well.

    Last great memory of his career was when he basically carried us over the line in the last quarter against the lions up at the Gabba when they had gone on a 6-7 goal run against us , some classy snaps to steady the ship . At the end of the day it all counted to us making finals that year . I also remember Dland melting down in the post match thread that game even though we’d won

    They rate C Wagner over Garlett ??!!!!??? Really....

    Garlett was an outstanding acquisition considering the little we gave up for him, and provided some great entertainment over his 5 seasons at the club.

    Was great when on, was colder than cold when he wasn't, but all told was a good pickup for us in bad times. Thanks Jeff

    That's most unlike Demonland.

    Thank you both, Jeffy an absolute gem for us and great to watch especially when he got the ball out the back.

    Jeffy & Watts the only reliable finishers over the meagre years until T-Mac's entre' last season..

    Our only bit of class besides Fritschkreig in front of the sticks now gone.

    Hope this trade season goes well!

    Some great moments and helped us over the line to win a few extra games and enhance other wins.  One of my favs was the match in the red centre against the Crows last year.  Last time i can recall him truly turning it on as per 2017 et al.

    You always knew Jeffy would finish most opportunities off last season and prior if given the chance.  All class.

    Well done to Dec for sticking fat and making it to the big league!

    Good luck to both in their post AFL endeavours.

    Edit: nearly forgot Melk!  Apologies.

    And when he chased down and brought to ground an opponent who wasn’t expecting the tackle!

    Loved Jeffy! Felt like he was unfairly maligned last year and should have been playing up forward instead of Spargo.

    Jeffy was your typical Paul Roos pick and unfortunately we haven't had once since. He brought excitement and at his best back in 2017 was unlucky not to be named in the 40 All Australian squad.

    All the best to Declan Keilty as well and thanks heaps to @Drunkn167 for all the updates and input. VFL for next year for Dec?

    sad to see Dec go, i thought he had some real potential (but then again there aren't many others i would get rid of) 

    thanks for the good times Jeffy. (I still think Jeffy brings more to the table then Spargo)

    Dec played two AFL games for two wins. A 100% win rate is a very rare thing at our club. Well done, kid.

    Jeffy was wonderful at his best. A great contributor. Farewell both.

    Wow, now Nathan Jones is the clubs highest goal kicker. What a sad state of affairs we have been reduced to.

    Jeffy was brilliant early for us but unfortunately went missing in games to often in the last couple of years.  He was great watch when up and going.

    • NON-MFC: Round 12

      Round 12 kicks off with the Brisbane hosting Essendon at the Gabba as the Lions aim to solidify their top-two position against an injury-hit Bombers side seeking to maintain momentum after a win over Richmond. On Friday night it's a blockbuster at the G as the Magpies look to extend their top of the table winning streak while the Hawks strive to bounce back from a couple of recent defeats and stay in contention for the Top 4. On Saturday the Suns, buoyed by 3 wins on the trot, face the Dockers in a clash crucial for both teams' aspirations this season. The Suns want to solidify their Top 4 standing whilst the Dockers will be desperate to break into the 8.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

    • REPORT: Sydney

      A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

    • POSTGAME: Sydney

      The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.
