yes would put Nicholson on the ground and captain. Vardy and Sean Charles were very good but injuries got the better of them. Drop those two, and include one P Hopgood as well.

Although it is probably a sign of inabilty to create a sturdy defence. Nicholson would be closer to our best side of the past 15 years then our worst.

Vardy, Charles and Holland also unfairly named here

From memory 'P.PRYMKE' had a bad back that crippled his career.

Agreed. I'd put Ellis in there instead of Nicho.

Brent Grgic called, he wants to know where the love is.

Oooooh Mercy!

Yep. Dutchy to emergency or out altogether, replaced by Grgic.

Vardy UTTERLY doesn't deserve to be there. Gave good service while healthy. If Vardy's there, Byron's headed for this team. Others are ok. Maybe Charles can be reprieved. Oh, and no Moland or Rogers? Or are we doing only players who played?

And Tooly? Great thread that has come at the best time. I've been severely let down by demonland's form of late, and you've come up with the goods. Classic.

Whoever wrote this is an fool & I don't know why some people get their kicks out of humiliating past players. Also you can't spell.

Shanahan was a top notch full back & had a great first year but then played one year too many. Holland has been a very handy footballer. Norrish was a handy player who won a B&F at Freo. Charles was a brilliant talent but was hampered by injuries & a poor attitude. Vardy was outstanding when fit. Prymke held down CHB for 2 years before being injured. Doyle & Irving were both reasonable players & Newton had his career wrecked by injury.

Fair dinkum do you actually ever go to a game because you really have no idea.

yeah, would have to agree. don't understand the point of the criticism of these players, doesn't achieve much. although i must say i still shudder at thought's of the (re)grg. and get lost neale daniher haters! sickens me, name me two victorian coaches who have been better than him in the past decade? he loves the club and we can all see it.

Really? My super side looks more like this...

B: Seecamp, Ingerson, Whelan

HB: S Febey, Rivers, Woewodin

C: Johnstone, Viney, Tingay

HF: Farmer, Schwarz, Yze

F: Lyon, Neitz, Robertson

FOLL: Stynes, Leoncelli, Rigoni

I/C: J McDonald, B Lovett, G Lovett, White

Its funny how different fans have different perceptions of the club.

that forward line is arousing! i miss ingo

I'd have mclean ahead of white! Even though he hasn't been there long. In about 5 years he will be captain of this topic!

But good idea putting the good ones!

Pretty good side.

ANthony or james mcdonald?

Any Melbourne "super side" should contain Allen Jakovich.

The guy was a freakish football talent. Unstoppable when on song.

im surprised sean wight hasnt been mentioned at full back? i was young but he seemed to do a good job for a while, considering the names mentioned in our full back list?

When did Ingerson ever play full back?

How can you leave Brett Lovett on the I/C . thats a disgrace. Robbo - I'd replace but I'm not sure who with.

the rest is fantastic. Well Done!

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
