Can't think of a player who very obviously had NOPE stamped on his name in big letters by a coach. 

Third in the B&F in 2013, in and out of the side in 2014 under Roos. Signed on for two years at the end of 2014, played two full seasons in the VFL when just about every other player on the senior list got picked at some point. Almost seemed like a stubborn standoff between coach and player in the end. Pretty funny in hindsight - probably not for Dean though.

I was thinking of the BnF in 2013 when I saw the 2021 DL leaderboard with so many guns. How far have we come? Staggering

Dean tried his guts out so fair play to him. Just didn’t have the talent

    Winning the next 34 on the trot isn't too much to ask for is it?

    To be fair I think we should give him until the end of 2022 to even up

    If we had had two Pedos we would have been at 68 percent and firing.

    Looks like James Jordan is the new Clyde Laidlaw!

    (Fingers crossed because that's an 81% win rate and four premierships in 124 games)

    I met Clyde at a Grand Final function about five years ago and had a long chat with him. What a gentlemen. And he was in great shape. Always and forever a Deez man, followed us very closely and thought that our recruiting, playing style and coaching strategy with Roos back then was spot on.

    FUN FACT

    James Jordon is the first player to win his first 6 games since.....


    Charlie Spargo in 2018 R6-11

    Bonus facts:
    The next best is 7 winning games by Brian Dunsford in 1957 where he played 7 games that year, all wins and didn't play another season with anyone.  James Jordon has the chance this week to equal this

    The second best is 13 wins in a row by Alby Rodda in 1939 winning 9 games (including a flag) continuing on to win his first 4 games of 1940 after missing round 1. 

    The best streak by a Melbourne player is Bryan Kenneally's first 14 games were all wins with 2 played in 1959 and 12 played in 1960. 
    After his first two seasons he had a record of 17 games 16-3 and one premiership.

    Thats amazing.  Knock off North and the Swans and he owns the record outright.

    Reminds me of the sad stat about Robbie - 270 odd games and finals only in his last three. 
    Come 88-89-90 Newport, Viney, Stynes and co were running like 9 finals out of 30 or 40 games

    How does this compare to Cam Pedersen's percentage? I feel like we won every game he played for us there for a while.

    Just seeing Cam on the field was a win in itself - really enjoyed his suddent efforts and effects for the team. One of my favourites; he was so motivating at times.

    Not that it matters, but Marty Hore is in your list twice...with the same % win.

    Seeing this list really makes me feel for Nathan Jones. Playing might seem "easy" for players like Jordon, Rivers and Jackson, but Jones really did it tough and the fact that he stuck with us throughout those terrible years should never be forgotten.

    Thank you, just fixed that up :)

    Yeah I feel for Jones,  a lot of players on our list between 2007-2016 would have had similar horrific %.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
