I don't usually post comments on this thread. In fact, I cant remember doing so before, but I reckon Gawn's game today was just off the planet. When we needed a mark - he took it When we nee

6. Maxy. Ruck work back to his best and took some great contested marks around the ground giving us an out. 5. Petracca. Kicking was poor at times and a couple turn overs but lots of clearances,

6 - Viney. Almost gave it to Gawn but Viney was unbelievable with his attack on the footy from half time. He did everything possible to make sure we didn’t lose.

5 - Gawn. Immense game and has been in awesome form. 

4 - Salem. Awesome first half and really set the tone with some aggression and clean entries.

3 - Petracca. Would have probably been BoG if he didn’t kick at like 40% efficiency. Clutch goal though at the end.

2 - Langdon. I felt some of his hard running really helped us get into great position.

1 - AvB. His second half was huge and won a heap of crucial contests.

Apologies to Hibbo who continued his excellent form.

6 GAWN, Best Captains game in I can’t remember

5 VINEY, Getting some sleep after new bub obviously helps, fair dinkum he cops merde on this site.

4, LANGDON, his run was good when we lost momentum at times.

3, OLIVER, really strong 4 qtrs

2, SALEM, best game in a long time

1, Can raffle this, but Omac great job tonight, felt like the missing piece of the puzzle he made MAy and Lever better.

6. Gawn - used everything in his bag of tricks other than a grab 30 out. Ruck work and marking all over the ground immense.

5. Viney - bull, with much improved ball use this week.

4. Petracca - poor ball use lowers his ranking but his contested efforts were big again and as far as I was concerned, all was forgiven with the mark and goal in the last quarter. The Petracca of old, after a day of poor ball use wouldn’t have had the mental fortitude to calm down and nail that goal, which sucked the energy out of our opposition and in to ourselves. Coming of age.

3. Oliver - lessons learned from last week. Just awesome.

2. Salem - ball use really important, especially in the first half.

1. Langdon - I just love the way this guy runs, haven’t seen anything like it in MFC colours in ages. He is untackleable. 

Also enjoyed the games of Hibberd, Hannan, Vanders, Weid and OMac.

Have to say that whilst I didn’t give him a vote, Oscar McDonald played probably his best game for the Dees. He nullified Sam Day and actually ran a few times to rebound the footy. Still got lead feet in marking contest. Last night was the expected standard.  I felt with Day and King, May & Oscar combo worked better.  Allowed Lever to play intercept.  I saw some people gave Lever in the votes.  Not in my top 10.  Marginally better but still too easily pushed aside in marking contests.

6. Gawn. This is how captains play.

5. Viney. Great ex captain's game. Reformed man, looking to where he wants to go.

4. Langdon. Love the way he enjoys his footy. 

3. Lever. Best game for a long time.

2: Salem. At it all night.

1: vandenBerg. Awesome ferocity.

Oscar and May and Hibberd were good as well.

    HIGHLIGHTS/LOWLIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Melbourne traveled across the continent to take on the Fremantle Dockers in sweltering conditions at Mandurah south of Perth in a game that delivered the club both its highlight and its lowlight in the first minute.  But first, let’s start by doing away with the usual cliches used in connection with the game. It was just a practice match and the result didn’t matter. Bad kicking is bad football. The game was played in severe heat, the swirly breeze played havoc with both teams resulting in

    The Dees were blown out of the water early by the Fremantle Dockers before fighting back and going down by 19 points in their final practice match of the preseason before Round 1. Remember it's only a practice match if you lose.

    TRAINING: Friday 28th February 2025

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you their observations from today's training session before the Demons head off to Perth for their final Practice Match. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning, not much wind, more than a couple of dozen spectators.  The players were up and about, boisterous and having fun. One of their last drills were three teams competing in a hard at it, handball game in a small area. Goody

    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
