how can you have all midfielders on the bench and both wings?

don't defenders get rotated?

This team is a joke if picked on actual positions. There are like 19 midfielders and only one actual defender in May. It’s a bit of a joke.

    I actually just counted it out Jaded. I reckon they've put 10 out and out midfielders into the side. 10!!

    I’m just so proud of the boys but more so  of being a supporter who’s stuck it out with them. 
    We’ve arrived, but the summit is ahead. @Pollyanna

    What a great night of individual awards for our beloved Dees …..  but I’m sure they all know full well, that there are bigger fish to fry.

    I'm hoping after the year the boys have had the whole side chisels in their names as true legends of the Melbourne football club forever more.

    And on a different tangent.
    5 all Australians and finished the season minor premiers.
    After all these years it's surreal stuff.
    Hope the next few weeks blows our freakin minds.

    Max as Captain, everyone grow a beard for the finals, I'm not shaving anyway!!! 

    The Fox Footy promo 'History is in Front' for the QF game is the best ever, anyone know how to capture it for you tube?

    Lets hope he goes from all Australian captain to premiership captain. 

    But I did laugh when he said that comment about dreaming of becoming a premiership player before becoming a dad. 

    But well done on how hard he has worked over the years. A shame Jim isn't here to see the great work he did with him that work rubbed off on him and the person he is now.

    It’s absolutely not about individual awards, but recognition of individual players who have worked so hard all year to help make their team better is always nice. I’m especially proud of May. He’s 29 and he’s really brought himself into this position the last two year by sheer hard work. Well done!

    I recall in 2000 when Daniher and everyone went gaga when Woey won the brownlow. I think it upset us that week and we were happy to be participating in a GF.

    We aren't there yet but I sense these boys are a lot more grounded and will park their exceptional awards and re-focus very quickly on the work to be done.

     

    Go Dees

    Incredible night really, all well deserved awards, and hopefully the precursor of bigger things to come.

    I'm in tears watching this. The kids had to ask me what was wrong. Will we win any more?

    Meanwhile Petracca says "I'm proud to be one of five Melbourne players ... " and the commentators do an eye-roll. 

    I guess we don't win any more?

    Yeah somehow I think they’ll appreciate this more when the season/career is done. Right now they’ll be focused on Sat night.

    Max Gawn has an AA guernsey for ~every 30 games he’s played. The best ratio in history. 

    unbelievable

    We literally won everything, as Daisycutter said our salary capped is cooked.

    The words Oliver said about Goody, that boy ain't going nowhere.

    Let's hope we clean sweep the Charlie, Norm Smith and Premiership too.

    Why don’t all the awards happen at the end of the year? 

    so hard for players to enjoy them when nothing has been achieved. A lot of nervous grins...

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

      Gather Round is upon us and the Demons face off against the Bombers who are on a 17 game losing streak. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
