For those wanting to disengage from footy until Game Day by listening to more footy content.

Thought this was very honest with some Gus humour thrown in.

He's a great media performer but he also just seems super genuine, which seems to be a theme with most dees players getting interviewed this year, less catchphrase cliches and more stuff from the heart.

We all miss you guys as well Gus😔

All of us want you boys to give it your best shot and bring home the flag to the best club in the world.

As much as it hurts not being able to be there in person over in Perth, we will be shouting loud and proud with joy every goal, mark and magic you boys will bring our great team.

We are so proud of each and every one of you at the MFC club.🥰💖💙

You all beat me to the mark. Just saw his presser.

Quality person, quality footballer.

And for those who doubt his effective input into our stellar season so far, take a bath.

i think people aren't getting the most important message out of this presser - gus is now the (admittedly self-professed) best basketballer at the club

Considering the quality of basketballers at the club I’m pretty sure he is just winding up his mates.

He’s a good one Gus and is a key driver of the new culture and standards at the club. Presents very well. Love the interviews with him and Gawn and Trac and May recently.

Agree with all the above, also add Lever, May, Lingers, Petracca - makes a refreshing change from the usual “Yeah, nah”.

I love watching Gus when the boys sing the song after a win. He’s like the band leader and really fires it up. Needless to say, I looked like him in my lounge room doing the same thing on Saturday night.

As I was listening, was thinking all the things I'd say about Gus. Then read on and found you'd said them all! Thank you, everyone:)

Would just add, through the constant and widespread messaging, I'm genuinely believing now that the players are genuinely playing for US!

He’s great to listen to. His podcast with Gawny is really fun as well. 

Except when we lose, in which case the podcast is apparently a distraction which should be canned so that he can focus on football...

(Tongue slightly in cheek here).

I'm getting horrible flashbacks. High school was a lot of things, but mostly it was kids being better than you at stuff, and everyone being really loud all the time.

Would not recommend.

He's honest, articulate, funny, and easy to listen to. Definitely got a future ahead of him in the media if he wants it.

It love listening to the Gus and Gawny on the podcast. Gawn is also honest and funny, but not so much articulate, which actually adds to the dynamic, with Gus frequently bemused at Gawn's slaughter of the English language. Very entertaining.

    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

We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
