Good on him. was a good move for him even though he had to endure beltings every week. He would've been further down the pecking order whether the emergence of Mcvee ( or maybe we don't get mcvees season if hunt stayed) hunt will get another contract extension you'd think and not sure he would've at Melbourne

I wouldn't recognise half of those players even if they did a dump on my front lawn. *That could be more of a reflection on me

Jayden might have been a chance for a game up forward this coming Thursday but I agree that he did the right thing in his move West

He wasn’t given a choice 😢

But it was the right thing for MFC.  It’s always frustrating when a fan favourite falls outside the best 23.

Agreed. It was the right thing for the Club. But not for him. I was making the distinction because to say he did the right thing moving to the west implies he wanted to go and therefore made a choice to go.

Anyways, he’s gone, and of course everyone here wishes him well. Fourth in their B&F is an achievement of which to be proud. I just miss him ‘s all. 🙁

Most of those names were good players, but Dean Terlich!!! He was seriously one of the least game aware players you have ever seen. 

But Col Sylvia is the sad one. Apart from his early passing, he had every football attribute you could ask for. Possibly the most wasted talent ever at MFC. Absolute gun who couldn't give everything he had to training and playing. O for what could have been!

Col had the power and talent of trac and a better kick for goal. Just never got the best out of himself for many reasons.

One of my favs even if somewhat inconsistent.

Keep in mind he was a big part of our drought breaking premiership year until injured.

In the statistical player ratings i keep he finished 14th that seaso, well inside the top 22.

He then dropped 14 places in 2022 to finish the season in 28th.  If only he was able to follow up his VG 21 season.

Still think we needed to keep one of him or Bedford, or even both.

I’m sure she does Sam. I wonder who Alan will be barracking for Thurs night. He was Pies before JH was drafted. I suspect he’s reverted.

Hopefully he hasn't gone back to the dark side. If he has maybe a an exorcism is needed.

I’m frankly shocked he didn’t have more suitors. He was one ankle injury away from being a premiership player. 
Essendon for one would have been a good fit. Not that Essendon is better than West Coast… at least he gets good weather in Perth 😂

Very true words. He could beat any opponent with speed and talent. Sadly missed.

Rehabbing: Great to see Kentfield back (much slimmer), walking with Tholstrup, TMac (suspect just a management thing), Viney (still being cautious with that rib cartilage?), Melksham (

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury.

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
