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.

Terrific spokesperson for the players. Quality person.

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.

FOR THE RED AND THE BLUE !

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.

Have you heard Adam Tomlinson?

We are so blessed with the quality of people at the Dees. Gus is so thoughtful and considered with his answers makes us all so proud.!!

 

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

He should have a long career in media. Speaks extremely well. Cannot remember a player speaking so well.

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. 

Impressive young man.

Love his sense of humour too

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.

Smith and Jackson would smoke him.

Yes, your point is?

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!

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).

One of the guys in this isn’t bad either…..wonder what became of him?


 

I think he lost weight!

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.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

  • CASEY: Footscray

    At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

  • PREGAME: Brisbane

    The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

    Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
