Great players!

Loved the flash, who invented "forward pressure"

There is some vision of flash sidestepping a few players in a forward pocket. They were mesmerized!

Wheels was tough and none can forget that hit on hird!.

Congratulations and well deserved!

Flash is... well Flash. Changed the game. Well deserved.

Wheels was very underrated outside the MFC. One of the best small defenders I've seen in my almost 50 years of watching the game. Well deserved too, and I'm glad he has been given that recognition.


Two questions - one should be easy, the other impossible 

Of these players inducted into the Northern Territory Hall of Fame pick

a). The odd man out and

b). The one with the most talent

Cyril Rioli

Andrew Mcleod

Aaron Davey

Matthew Whelan

Nathan Buckley

Michael Long

Peter Burgoyne (and Shaun for arguments sake) 

Michael McLean and

Maurice Rioli

It took me a while, but I'm guessing that Buckley is the odd man out as the only non indigenous player in the group.

As for talent, yep I agree, but if my name was Bruce, I'd probably say Cyril !! (Or  "OH, Cyril, Cyril, Cyril,  OH, Rioli he's MAGNIFICENT" - to be more accurate ...)

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
