I was at Marvel Stadium yesterday and first time I watched Mac Andrew livevand he certainly stood out. He will become a star defensive footballer. Maybe he can be lured to Princes Park post 2025 ... 🤔😁

So he was part of the Dees NGA academy? Might mean he has some positive connections with MFC. The Dees should definitely work on trying to get him to MFC!

Wtf is a second team?

Who knows. I hate all teams except Melbourne on different scales. Perhaps it's the team you hate least?

Historically my second team is whoever is playing Collingwood, so I last week I probably could have been swayed into buying a GC membership.

just another thing to blame barassi for, i reckon

If it was good enough for RDB, it is good enough for me (actually wearing my Demons polo top at Incheon Airport right now as I type this) 😁

I only have a last team. Collingwood. 

I have heaps of second teams. 

Whoever is playing against Collingwood.

Whoever is playing against Celtic. 

Whoever is playing against England. 

Whoever is playing against an NFC Central team that isn't the Packers.

Harry Mckay would have been nice at pick 9 instead on Sam Weidemann in the 2015 draft.

 

McKay x 2, Curnow, Hipwood, Himmelberg... any of them

We do tend to dwell on that draft quite a bit. 
Just had a look at Cal top 30 draft ratings a couple of weeks before the draft. He had Curnow one spot ahead of Sam at 8&9. This was a week before Curnow was done for drink driving and I think there was question marks over his attitude. Hipwood was 14 and Harry and Ben were 21&24. 
He also had Clayton Oliver at 11. We took him at pick 4. Cal had another tall in Josh Schache rated as the 4th best in the draft. 
 

Of course we with hindsight we would have been better taking one of those other talls before Sam but we also could have taken Schache instead of Oliver. 
 

In 2017 we picked Spargo at pick 29. Tom De Koning went the pick after. 


You can always look back and say we could have picked player x instead of player y, can’t always get them right and picking Sam seems to be in line with the player ratings at the time.

  • POSTGAME: Geelong

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

  • GAMEDAY: Geelong

    It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

  • PREVIEW: Geelong

    "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.
