- A top four finish and a Premiership. 

- Wins over Geelong, Richmond (Anzac Eve), Sydney, Collingwood (Kings B'day) A MUST!!!

- More rotation of players through the year so there's a healthy competition for senior spots. 

- Kozzy contract extension.

- News on our MFC facility finally chosen/ preparation underway. 

- Increased revenue for the club from it's investments.

- Sign a big sponsor.

- Oliver to win his Brownlow.

- May to spear tackle Jackson and bust a few ribs without being suspended. 

- Oliver and Brown to shave their heads for a much cleaner look. Langdon to grow his back lol. 

- A healthy 60,000 supporter membership tally after a disappointing 2022 exit.

    10 years ago we all would have just wanted to see us be competitive. 

    10 years later and I hope we never hear that vomit again.

    A happy TEAM playing for each other and the rest will take care of itself.

    A bit more versatility, free wheeling and enjoyment in the way we play. 

    I love the defensive effort the players give and the joy they have in that but our best footy is fast, creative and brave. It trusts the next guy in the chain calling for the ball is either free or can win a contest. 

    Do that and if the coaches and footy department make enough of the right calls managing the players we’ll be in with a shot.

    Did anyone else notice the team is really happy this year? It seems we have the right balance with things at the moment. The players are always smiling and cracking jokes in photos I see. Morale and training intensity is high, which can only be a good thing. I just feel like we are humming away ready to take the opposition to the sword. We are ready!

    Another flag. anything less is a failure and those are the lofty expectations we should all embrace. 

    this list is primed.

    Flag, obviously, but the thing that I want to see because I believe it's the best predictor ...

    I want us to be number 1 in the comp for forward 50 tackles again. We dominated that stat in 2021 (from memory, ANB and Kozzie were #1 and #2 in the league) and completely dropped away in 2022. Bring that pressure again, turn the ball over higher up, force oppo quick kicks to Lever/Gawn/etc., and we're well on the way to Cup #14.

    I’d like to see the players enjoying their football. 
    2021, the team were clearly enjoying their football and celebrating each others success.  They’re looked fresh, happy and enthused.

    2022, they looked like they were ‘all business’ and it seemed to weigh them down come the second half of the year.

    I would like to see them hungry and happy.

    • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

      It’s Game Day and the Demons have made the long trip west to take on Fremantle tonight at Optus Stadium. Can Melbourne make it two from two to start the season, and what are you hoping to see from the Dees under the lights in Perth?

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

    • NON-MFC: Round 02

      The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

      As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

    • PREGAME: Fremantle

      After a stunning victory over the Saints in the first round of the Season the Demons head over to Perth to take on the Dockers who choked in their first match against the Cats. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.
