    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 that Tom Browne is wrong again or Fantastic news about Bennell? Or Both!

    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: North Melbourne

      It’s late February. Two teams widely predicted to finish near the foot of the AFL table in 2026 face off against each other in sweltering 30-degree heat deep in outer suburbia in a match simulation with fresh new faces and uneven team numbers. There are no nearby sheep stations on offer; the result promises nothing more than bragging rights for the winner. Nevertheless, the loser appears hopelessly adrift, whereas the other seems to have found its footing after a couple of years of struggle – perhaps a hint at bigger things to come?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      It was only a preseason match but the new look Demons spearheaded by new coach Steven King looked impressive as they put on a clinic against perennial cellar-dwellers North Melbourne as they cruised to an 80 point victory at Casey Fields.

    • TRAINING: Wednesday 18th February 2026

      A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers were blessed with some beautiful Wednesday morning weather to give their observations of one of the final open training session at Gosch's Paddock prior to our first practice hit out against another team this weekend.
