    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.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
