    Tim Taranto had to be talked out of getting a MFC tattoo in the year of his draft. He is a gun coming into his prime. He is one I believe will come home to support his childhood dream.

    That'd be super super tasty, if that was to occur.

    • Demonland changed the title to Which Dees Players Grew Up Supporting Us?

    Garry Lyon was Chris Juddd's hero.  When he was at Caulfield Grammer, he wore number 3 on his back.  Scott Pendelbury and his family were Dees supporters.  Going back a fair way, Bobby Skilton and his family were ardent Dees supporters.

    Hang on. What? Nathan Buckley? And Taylor Adams? 

    I knew Weitering was a Melbourne supporter, as was Devon Smith and I think Adam Tomlinson.

    Not sure I knew about Shuey either.

    Pretty sure Tomlinson was a Carlton supporter.

    Clearly we need to just draft Melbourne supporters based on these lists...

    Shuey definitely was. Buckley? Never heard that and never wish to again.

    Thought I read once that Jack Viney was a Hawthorn supporter because Todd was working at the Hawks at the time Jack decided.

    Been mentioned but Tarranto, Harmes, Prestia, Buddy, Pendlebury, Gaff, Shuey, McKay are the current day players I know of.

    Always liked Andrew Gaff* and now I know why. 
     

    * Except for that one time when he caused Gus’s brother to have to drink puréed food through a straw for a while. 😆

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
