His arm size is looking a bit too good for demonlanders.

I know I am old but I have absolutely no idea what you are saying. Please explain! Sorry I couldn't help the last sentence but would still like to know.⁵

I think it’s a reference to the muscle definition in Jefferson’s arms, as can be seen in the photo above. But what would I know…I’m old as well.

Making up things a normal part of your repertoire?

Nice self-own.

Feel free to let me know where that was said by me.....

Not your greatest post 58er

 

Apologies JNRMAC 

It was DCTRACCA who made the errors.

Over to you TRACCA?

It's not hype. It's hope. It's the off season. It's a time for the optimism of the supporters to grow and look forward to the next season.

The houses have all been trained down. Players have put on muscle in just a few weeks of holidays and all the problems with the game plan will magically be solved. 

At the moment, Johnson is a Schrödinger's cat. He could be the next Tony Lockett or he could be a complete bust. 

Let the optimists have their time.

Far better to be an optimist who is sometimes wrong than a pessimist who is always right.

Errrrrr we are 14th

That may only be for the last 6/8 games of 2024. That doesn’t mean we are stuck in that position permanently.

We could have easily made the finals without Trac and Clarry’s last half season. It was rare air without the two champs.

What does “ a bit too good for demo leaders” mean?

Jeffo owes it to Chris in Camberwell to have a 'break out" year.

He'll blow a bloody woofer valve if he doesn't.

Pressure's on!


Will play round 1!!

Perhaps that a lot of posters have called out his previously thin build? He has bulked up quite a bit now.

Let’s wait and see mate. 

17 goals in a VFL season, 4th at club, is hardly going to be keeping the oppo coaches up at night thinking about match ups. His best game was 3 goals against the Northern Bullants who have to beg local kids to play with them. Hes a great story if he gets a game but he wont be in the team for his scoreboard impact.

People are essentially lazy I think.

I just had the first chemotherapy session of my return, and feeling ok so far…but it is early days yet 😁. Hopefully this doesn’t spoil my 2025 too much; I will be on this for a few months, I suspect.

Oh hell sorry to hear that news. Best of luck for the year ahead.

True, but at least I had almost a year off the ‘gear’ 😁

Jeffo”s best haul was 5 goals against the Zebras. 27 goals in 15 VFL matches. He was played in different positions prior to these games. 
 

The kid can play.

There was a period last year where we had 4 tall forwards in the VFL team, and Jeffo was played in the forward pocket and moved to defence during that period. I recall in games where it was just him and Kentfield as our tall forwards, he looked very good when as the focal point of our attack.

You must have missed last half of 2024. If you are going to comment please br accurate.

Goody  would not have made Jeffo an emergency 3 weeks in a row at the end of the season without the actual improvement he has actually made. 

Many in the Club are looking forward to him continuing on with his impressive development 

It is disappointing to read of criticism that is inaccurate. 

Credit where credit is due please. 

Goody can have his opinion on him thats totally fine, and I will be more than happy to be proven wrong. I watch every VFL game and still dont rate him as an AFL level player, and the stats dont lie....

 

Ill give credit when credit is due. Hopefully he can have more impact on the game instead of over the back goals ala Jenkins.

  • GAMEDAY: Port Adelaide

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are on the road for the next month and will be desperate to claim a crucial win to keep their finals hopes alive against Port Adelaide.

  • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

  • NON-MFC: Round 14

    Round 14 is upon us and there's plenty at stake across the rest of the competition. As Melbourne heads to Adelaide, it's time to turn our attention to the other matches of the Round. Which teams are you tipping this week? And which results would be most favourable for the Demons’ finals tilt?

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

  • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?
