    Just saw this on YouTube. I really think we have some fine human beings at our club, BBB being one of them. Great cause to support.

    It's great to see he's received about $7k in donations already 😊

    I recall starting a thread of "players that need to get a hair cut" when BBB was at North, with him as one of the main culprits, so perhaps he's another that secretly reads Demonland.

    First Hunt leaves, Lingers shaves the locks, now BBB.  Who else do we need to address to conform the the MFC/MCC short back and sides mold?  Perhaps if Kossie gets in on the act, we'll know that a signature on an extended contract with the red and blue is on the cards!

    In all seriousness, good on Ben.  Great cause and let's get behind it and him.  His potential contribution to the senior side for this year has been downplayed by many, but I can sense a 60+ goal season from the man they call BIG BENNY BROWN!!

    Unfortunately we've picked up a couple in the off season. Grundy and Oliver

    But 193cm won't be tall enough to play key forward. We'll have to trial him on the wing now.

    Such a great person Ben, saw him at the VFL GF struggling his way up the stairs to the seats with his wife and kids but he was still greeting fans and didn't seem put out at all. Support this cause if you can!

    This could be posted in the training Feb1 thread as it’s another example of poor communication between the Club and fans.

    The announcement by the media of BBB shaving his head at our Family Day is largely how many fans discovered Family Day was even happening this year. Yes, it was highlighted on the MFC website but other than that the Club has been remiss in ensuring as many people are aware of it thus effecting a huge turnout.

    The moment Ben publicly announced his head shaving was to be done at Family Day we had to double our sausage order. True story. This is by far and away the DeeArmy’s biggest fund-raising event of the year (a portion of our proceeds will be going to support Challenge Cancer) and so the more exposure, the more funds raised.

    • 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? Follow all the non-Melbourne games here and join the conversation as the ladder continues to take shape.

    • 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?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
