    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

    What a depressing Season that must have been for Hunty. 
    Just like Jake Melksham, footy can be very cruel

    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

    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

    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. 🙁

    He will have a more enjoyable season next year. No way WC could be as bad as they were.

    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.

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
