Just watched the first 2022 episode. Well, that's 38 minutes of my life I'll never get back. Still, They are likeable dudes, and sometimes even funny. But only sometimes. I liked the way they encased further cobwebs around that bulldust Herald Sun gutter-soufflé stuff about Goodwin.

    About halfway through Maxy mentioned the lone supporter who peers over the fence to watch all the training sessions. He must be talking about @picket fence

    Podcast mentioned that Oskar Baker is out of the wingers club as he is being played off half back.

    Yes it was mentioned in Scoop Juniors last training post

    Dont think that its me he is refering to,as a supporter has been backing his cab chassis back and sits on a chair and watches training near the entrance. He is very very keen and loves the Dees!

    I agree it was quite a frivolous affair.

    They mentioned Jack Viney as potential interviewee next week. Should be an interesting contrast, Max and Gus light-hearted style v the no nonsense Jack Viney. The dynamic between them will be interesting to observe

    A somewhat meandering affair I’m afraid! A bit of gossip, a bit of news: a bit too unstructured for my taste.

    Nice to see Benny G still getting a run I think that he rose in stature around the club during the finals series doing what ever needed to be done including covering as water boy. But agree it was like watching them find their feet for 2022, glad that Baker is getting a run off half back, looks like Rosman and Howes have taken over the wings. I hope the first round goes better than the first episode. Lol!!!

    Ben Gibson is a really good acquisition, from the first day he walked in.  

    Our Media output has improved so much since he arrived. No offense to those before him, but some kids just know how to do the job, and do it

    I'm a bit worried about Gus's future in media management. That first episode was painful to sit through albeit for the 5 minutes of humour and silliness injected by Gawny. 

    I get the need to have a laugh and not take the whole show too seriously but surely they spend a bit of time talking about preparation, pre-season or what ever has been happening from a footy perspective - dont need to dedicate the full show, just 5-10 minutes will surely quench the thirst of diehard footy supporters (i.e DL) who want a detailed account of how every player faired in every training drill conducted (joke). Maybe this is a deliberate attempt to not place too much expectation on the team or that its only pre-season etc, but we have all heard that there are a number of players running PB's, looking sharp on the track etc. In all fairness Gus did mention Oliver is nigh impossible to tackle, which is exactly the stuff we are after.

    My highlight was how happy Gawn was with himself in the justification of (hypothetically) playing the GF over attending his son's birth - quote was something along the lines of it has taken him 13 years of trying, commitment and persistence to win his first GF, whereas it only took 3 mins to make his son.

    I think the show benefits when they've got a previous match and next match to talk about. Gives it a bit of structure.

    • AFLW REPORT: Gold Coast

      The forecast said wind. The ladder said mismatch. The scoreboard said obliteration. Melbourne didn’t just beat Gold Coast — they dismantled them: 13.15 (93) to 0.6 (6). An 87-point obliteration, the Suns held goalless, and the Demons delivering their second-highest winning margin and third-highest score in AFLW history.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #28 Will Verrall

      It was a tough ask for him to break through as a 199cm ruckman in the shadow of an all-time great in that position who is also the club captain. He had some good days at Casey but was unable to progress and was delisted at the end of the season.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #29 Tom Campbell

      The 33-year-old Campbell has yet to play AFL football for Melbourne, but his Casey form has been strong and he has been retained as a ready-made ruck depth option who is widely regarded as someone who is excellent for the culture of the club.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #30 Harry Sharp 

      The Demons acquired an interesting player in Sharp, who narrowly missed securing a spot in the Lions’ premiership team last year. The 22-year-old medium forward played in the opening round this season and ended up with 18 senior games, although he was substituted in or out in for ten of those matches. He demonstrated glimpses of form, but ultimately ended the year on the margins of the team.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #31 Bayley Fritsch

      Worked his way back after a slow start and a further slump in form going into the midseason but became a solid contributor for the club in the latter half of 2025. Closing in on 300 goals for the club.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.
