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

b). The one with the most talent

Cyril Rioli

Andrew Mcleod

Aaron Davey

Michael Long

Peter Burgoyne (and Shaun for arguments sake) 

Michael McLean and

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 ...)

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

  • GAMEDAY: Geelong

    It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

  • PREVIEW: Geelong

    "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.
