Despite playing for a boring/tedious club for several years before joining the mighty fighting Demons (Adelaide Crows), Bernie quickly became my favourite MFC player.

He also became my little boy’s favourite player. (Henry’s favourite player is now our number 5, which I have endorsed, fyi.)

This said, I just watched a promo for the Bounce with the usual tools on Foxtel and Bernie was proudly sporting an Adelaide Crows guernsey. 

I had thought he was still involved with the MFC and was passionate about the club.

What’s the lay of the land here? If he’s no longer a Dee, I need to know. I’ve got a young human here who needs to know who to trust and in whom he can invest his beating heart.

In fact, so do I.

Feedback is appreciated.

Iam not a regular watcher but I've seen him on there with the half dees n crows top.

Unsure what he's wearing atm.

Shurley you can still appreciate the man with out being upset that he's an SA boy at heart?

Believe he was a part time coach last year but is no longer involved at the club.

Spent majority of his career at Adelaide, grew up a Crows support and is an SA boy. His best mates and family are in SA. Hardly surprising he represents Crows now he’s no longer involved at our club. 

Still love him as a larakin type bloke who just loves footy.

If it was for a promo, I would suggest he was wearing it to attract the Adelaide viewers.

Oh no, Bernie, say it ain't so!

Loved Bernie when he was a Demon and recon he is still the same top bloke, but that show Bounce just doesn't suit him.

I thought bounce was once a decient show in it's first few seasons, but it has become such formulaic rubbish that I never bother to watch it these days.

Bernie came across as a fair dinkum larikin, but Bounce is just cheep plastic crap.

Yeah it's probably that stupid segment where they wear the clubs they played for and if it was multiple clubs they make a multi jumper. I remember they somehow mashed a St Kilda, Sydney and Bulldogs jumper together for Barry Hall a few years back.

Shocking show, admittedly I do occasionally watch it when I feel like a brain dead Sunday night laugh but for the most part it's pure bogwash.

Look closer Ronald. It’s a half half guernsey. Your Bernie love is still safe.

Okay - I’m cool with that.

It’s all calm in the farm once again.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo.
