Thanks WOK that was brilliant great to see our 1963 team in the states great footage of the boys. As Norm Smith said 63 was the one that we should have won.!!

    I thought the 7000 mile kick was going to be Kozzie or Spargo landing one in Chocko's roofless car for kicking practice.

    Very interesting.

    24 players but 27 officials – a sign of things to come? The mentality of our administration just got worse and worse - most obviously with the infamous Norm Smith sacking. Thank heavens we are now have an administration which seems quite prepared to administer efficiently and quietly!

    Who was this campaigner? Geelong number 23. Went down like he had been hit by a freight train however he didn't even have contact.

    This pre dates my footy number knowledge but yes I think it is Doug Wade. Typical Geelong acting performance.

    Absolutely it is Doug Wade. Staging like John Peck used to, and also our own Big Bob Johnson

    Back in the 60's our family hosted my cousins engagement party, which meant us kids were on cleaning duties for a week.

    To make the place look more 'sophisticated' a number of posters were put up on the wall, one of them being a shot of the team on the tarmac in front of the plane that took them to/from Hawaii.  Believe it or not.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back at the MCG and have a massive challenge ahead of them as they take on Premiership contender the Gold Coast Suns. What do you want to see from the Dees today?

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.
