i think he's already 19


Amazing career considering his injuries, such a travesty but show of resilience at the same time.

Will always be one of my GOATS at Melbourne.

When Neiter played which one went forward?

Both?

Neiter kicked more goals but played more games.

Imagine the opposition coach having to cover them both playing forward.

S was one solid unit must have tipped over 100 kegs.

Probably didn't help his poor knees.

So agile though for a bloke his size.

Could certainly use him this week.

Poor Bbb is really our only big fwd. And he's simply more tall than big.

Really miss Tmac's strength and presence.

Defenders get nervous standing in front of players like Tmac.

Oh well.

At least Milk has stepped up at the right time.

Who would have thought?

I hope Milk keeps going and kicks 5.

He hasn't always been my favourite the last 2 years but he is an elite kick and seems to have got some of his speed back.

Sorry I forgot this was a DS thread for a few seconds.

Tx DS for the memories. 

I met him once at a house I was selling in my old real estate days.

Really likeable bloke.

The Ox

Wasn't the story a player saw Theox licence plate on Ds car and asked who Theo was?

Can't recall which player it was.

It's probably something I would have done.

Turned 18 this year, apologies DC! Unfortunately, doesn’t sound like he’ll be following in his fathers footsteps! 

yeah, don't think he's played any footy last few years.....covid wouldn't have helped either if he'd wanted to play basketball and footy

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

  • CASEY: Northern Bullants

    The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.
