I haven't heard any other group of supporters talk up Hunter like they did.

 

Not even our supporters ☹️
 

Anyways I think it’s psychological. They probably wouldn’t talk him up so much were he not suspended this week. They’re trying to convince themselves that he’s a way bigger out for us than he is, and therefore there’s one less ‘superstar’ to worry about. Delusional [censored]-ers

    Last week he absolutely was in our best players but personally I don’t think he is critical to our team. I really hope we see Rivers, Bowey or Salem given time on the wing this weekend.

    I assume it's Neil Erasmus. Pick 10 in the 2021 draft. Listed as 190cm but he's just a kid, Trac would destroy him.

    I also wish luck to anyone trying to rough up Steven May...

    Must be the Griffin Logue of this year's game.

    I think they're stupid.

    Plus they have bigger things to worry about like the name of their home base.

    More fun facts about Fred Fanning:

    -  His 97 goals that year were the highest of any Melbourne player before or since.

    -  The game where he kicked 18 was the last game of the season in 1947.

    -  His next game was for Hamilton in the Western District League where he was offered a coaching position for an amount of money four times his VFL pay and Melbourne couldn't/wouldn't match it.

    -  He kicked 22 goals in one of his games for Hamilton.

    My old man played with him for Hamilton (and against him later when Fanning moved to Coleraine).

    Said he was very tough but not as good a footballer as Bill Barham who was father of Bill and Jamie who both played a few games for Melbourne and also Ricky Barham who played alright for Collingwood for many years.

    Country football would have put Michael Christian about 5 weeks behind in writing up suspensions if today's rules were in place.

    Needed Chocko’s advice on technique?

    I wonder if Fanning was any good at handball?

    It's a real suburb and it kinda suits that's where they train.

     

    ...It's actually pronounced with a silent ck, except for the purposes of this forum, in which case, I'm happy to forget that.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day on Friday night. ANZAC Eve. The big stage at the ‘G. The Demons return to the spotlight for one of our most significant nights on the football calendar, taking on the Tigers in a clash that always carries extra weight given the gravity of occasion of the commemoration of the ANZAC Spirit. Under the lights, in front of a packed house, this is where moments are made. Can the Dees rise to the occasion and deliver on the big stage, or will Richmond spoil the night? All the build-up, discussion, and in-game reactions here. Go Dees.

    • NON-MFC: Round 7

      Round 7 is here, with the ANZAC commemoration games taking centre stage. Who are you tipping this week, and which results would be most favourable for the Demons?

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      Who would have imagined, when the season kicked off early last month, that Melbourne would emerge from the opening six weeks with wins over both Queensland powerhouses? At the time, Gold Coast and Brisbane were the competition’s early pace-setters, the flavours of the month, and the prospect of the Demons toppling both within the course of a fortnight seemed remote. Yet here they are, banking those scalps alongside home victories over two traditional Victorian rivals and building a quietly impressive resume.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees hit the big Friday night stage for the first and only time this season when they take on the Tigers under lights on ANZAC Eve at the G. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      Before Sunday, the last time the Brisbane Lions had walked onto the turf of the Melbourne Cricket Ground, they celebrated the pinnacle of the sport - an AFL premiership secured in emphatic fashion for the second consecutive year.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      From the outset, the Casey Demons lacked any spring in their steps. They were out-hustled and out-bustled and finally outplayed by the Brisbane Lions by 38 points on their home turf in perfect conditions at Casey Fields.
