Bizzarely, the 2021-retired Tom Scully is still in the HFC website team photos, evidently carrying the number 'Blank'

It was accidental, so it's ok. Doesn't it make you want to spew, though?

Martin rested vs the Suns.

For all the horrible list management decisions we made around the Bailey/ Neeld era, most of the players we willingly let go never played well elsewhere. Martin was the exception - I never understood why we let him walk at the time, and it looks like an even worse decision in hindsight. He's been a seriously underrated player for a long time.

If Sheed misses that goal he’s a premiership player.

A lot of people are quick to jump on Collingwood (which is fair enough) but they were very good and really should have won a flag.

I'm never going to begrudge a player for moving to the club they supported as a kid. Even if it is Collingwood.

(Hope Christian Petracca never reads this though).

We play them again at the G later this year, hopefully he plays, the Dees fans give him and big cheer, and of course the Dees get the W!

Not sure where to post this. GWS v Footscray currently live on Fox and Jesse is running around.

Better than no footy at all on a Thursday night. He’s looking ok, here’s hoping he gets some luck and makes it back successfully.

Lucky enough to be on a table with him at a fundraiser for retired players 3 years ago. We had a fabulous night and Guy was very easy to talk to. I cannot remember the company he works for but he is well known through country Victoria as he sells farm machinery. From memory he has 2 girls who play footy but haven't been picked up to date. He is very tight with Rod Grinter and they are a major force behind the past players support network. I was very privileged to talk to him about the Bali bombing and it's affects on the players who were there.

I don't know if he is aware Demonland exists and now I wish I had asked.

    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
