    Dominance in time of prosperity is one thing, dominance in times of extreme hardship is something else.

    Robbie the greatest demon for me.

    i dunno, always wondered why he self reported over the salary cap fiasco when his own personal business ethics were so questionable

    Checker Hughes - changed culture brought 4 flags and made us Demons

    Norm - needs no explanation 

    Robbie Flower- shining light through dark times along with god given football ability 

    Jim Stynes - club stalwart on the ground and driving force behind the debt demolition, which sees we still exist 

    Missing out

    RDB - great player but can't single him out from those great sides, his coaching greatness was elsewhere 

    Neiter - most games, most games as skipper and most goals

    By era:

    Warne-Smith- bias here, but until the 80's he was in all the top ten lists, 50 years after he played, Bunton, Coventry etc described him as their best opponent. Hard as nails and then there is his time as Chairman of Selectors working with Smith in the 50's

    Barassi-Our Michael Voss but better. Obviously there is unanimous consent on this so i won't bore further...

    Flower- Supremely skilled, lay down flush. Again consent on RF.

    Stynes- Lion heart, what an amazing human. He could've the bloke from 'unbroken', just never gives up...

    Smith and Hughes would obviously get gigs as coaches, I went players only.

    Stiff: Many; Neitz, Adams, Allan La Fontaine - Captain of a hat trick of premierships ffs.

    I think you've identified the real problem. Mt Rushmore is just not suitable. We need something that allows greater representation. Something that would enable many more MFC luminaries to be chosen. Something like the Terracotta Warriors.

    Mind you, a funerary tomb might send the wrong message.

    Stynes: Greatest football story....Brownlow, 4 x Bluey's, 2 x AA, Hall of Fame & 244 consecutive games.....rediculous!

    Flower: Super skilled in very difficult times but more importantly, loyal to the red & blue, Capt 81-87, 1 x Bluey, Hall of Fame & 2 x AA

    Barassi: 6 Premierships, 2 Bluey's, Capt 60-64 & Hall of fame

    Neitz: Capt 2000 - 08, 1 x Bluey, Coleman 02, 2 x AA, Hall of Fame & 7 time leading goal kicker

    Agree with those 4. Flower had no right to be as brave as he was with a build like that.

     

    Injury probably stopped Schwarz and maybe even Jakovich being up for consideration. Amazing footballers early in their careers.

    to me ivor warne-smith was the greatest demon of all time. Maybe not the greatest player (though pretty close).

    his life was like something out of a boys' own almanac.....he did everything....literally

    I won't go through all the detail......you can read for yourself at wikipedia - ivor warne-smith

     

    no wonder norm smith had such success with a team of him, jimmy cardwell, Ivor warne-smith and checker hughes

    Yes, we could do with I.W. Smith right now

    Quite a man. I miss the Ivor Warne doors at the Members Entrance...

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
