Those that knocked these doco's when they were first launched should have a rethink ... they are well done, are getting clicks which translate into memberships and sales, and provide fans with rare inner sanctum viewing the likes of which we haven't seen since 'Whiteboard Wednesday' with Cameron !!!

Max, get down from there...

I hate heights, gives me a cold sweat just watching that as I take a glimpse through my fingers covering my eyes.

I would have like them to have interview Jack about losing the captaincy but it might have been all too raw for him at the time.

Melbourne - We don't have to touch the nurry as much. There's our 2020 slogan right there.

By God I’m pumped for Sunday fortnight. 
 

After watching the Eagles yesterday I’m confident we’re in with a very real chance of doing them over here in Perf.

That was a great insight into the club. The boys look united, hungry and most of all happy. 
Some pretty good ingredients right there.

Must confess I've never heard the term "nurry" before.  Where does it come from?

Fantastic finale to a great series. Kudos MFC.

 

Good Finish to an interesting journey. 
Jack was seriously peeved off after the vote, but after last year we needed a clean sheet. 
the biggest lesson to learn from last year i think, is that when Dave Misson announced he was leaving, he should have packed up his things, have a few beers and a meal with the club and leave. 
Sticking around for a full season after giving notice is never on. 
His mind was elsewhere, we were so not fit. Continually over run late in games  

We should go alright this year, but 17 other clubs will have watched these 5 parts as well  

How Tough are Demons?

I know it's all in jest (I hope), but only Melbourne supporters could find a bugbear about a computer screen. Do you think Tigers or Hawk supporters talk that way?

jest it was.  And I expect supporters of any team would make the same weak jokes

A very good series that I really enjoyed.

the showed the amount of work that goes into supporting the players and building the team. It reminded me that there is so much more to a footy club than what we see at a game or on the training track. 
 

a good insight into the club and well done.

Really enjoyable 5 episodes. Great insight

Think goody handled the captain change really well and great how he addressed it front of the whole group would go a long way to helping Vin save a bit of face.

 

Super pumped for the year ahead. They've done the hard work time to reap the rewards (fingers/toes everything x-ed)

Good stuff.

The focus in the meetings on the enjoyment the players got from being -60 in possessions in a low-scoring practice match is good to see IMO.

Confirms yet again that the coaches watch a different game to us.

Do you mean the camera angles (with the behind the goals camera from the North game)?

The game must get pretty tiresome if you live in it with that amount of detail as shown with so many coaches and reviews and meetings and rules about where you should be once the ball is turned over at point A, etc.

As much as I love it I think that would ruin it for me.

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
