    Bennell’s highly unlikely to play against Carlton - Tom Browne.

    I was at training this morning and watched some match simulation. There was a five minute period where Bennell lit up the place. He definitely wasn't holding anything back today.

    Fantastic news.

    Honestly, in an AFL media landscape overrun with nuffies, it's a genuinely impressive effort that he manages to still stand out as the nuffie king.

    Apparently he's Jeff Browne's son, who's a highly influential figure at channel 9. Says a lot.

    Harley on at 4:50 in the above...

    … hard not to feel his excitement and determination to make an impact and pay back those who've supported his journey. 

    Officially very excited to see him run out in the Red and Blue.

    Just watching the way Harley caries himself in this interview, you can tell that he is a player that oozes confidence in his own ability as a footballer.  Even after all this time out, he seems 100% ready to go about business and put his talents on show for all to see.  Not in an arrogant cocky kind of way necessarily, but in a very self asured confident kind of way.  We haven't had too many players like that at the MFC.

    So stoked that he has got this far, particularly given that some people thought the exercise was a complete waste of time.  Really looking forward to seeing Harley play again and even better it being in the red and blue.  Whether it's for 1 game or 100, I get the sense that it's going to be a great ride and as a supporter I'm just going to sit back and enjoy it without worrying how long it might last.

    Wow! Good on him. Can’t fault his preserverence. I was one who said he wouldn’t play again, because of his injuries 

    Happy to be wrong if he strings games together

    Don’t think his Dad is with Nine anymore. He married one of the richest women in Australia, Rhonda Wylie, a few years ago.

    Really great that Harley been rewarded and so well deserved.

    its been a real team effort so far medicos coaches players and who knows what the result will be.

    It just may be a defining moment in our journey and the team can start fulfilling its now huge potential.

    This Round2 team is 5 goals better than Roind 1 in scoring potential!

    Exciting times. One of the most gifted players to ever lace up a boot IMO. If he could remain injury free and get back to consistent football, he could really change our fortunes. Its a big "if", but he is now out there amongst it. So very happy and excited. Good luck to Harley.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
