Love bowser. Agree that it would be nice to see him perhaps rotate through a wing. Could use his skills delivering inside 50.

Should reach out to Banana Boat to see if their interested in a sponsorship deal, I'm sure clarry and bowser would appreciate it.

@Demonstone taking a nap?

*they're

Can't believe nascent typed that, what a dumbass

    Good news. No regular players want to leave MFC only fringe players pack up their gear and seek greener pastures.

    Maybe time to move Bowie up the ground because most slots down back are filled.

    No harm in plonking him in  the forwardline during practice matches  if he shows something during the preseason in January.

    Lucky break another two years. Needs to become more consistent, similar to Quanor at Collingwood.we need him to become the stopper of opposition top small forward continually.

    we need him to excel onwards.

    Doesn't have anything close to Quaynors athletic profile. 

    I like what Bowser brings but his 1v1 losses in the d50 have been very costly and he is our weak link down back in that regard. 

    I think he'd be a very handy half forward with his skills and nous around goal.

    Well he's not a patch on IQ. Has quietly become just about the best mid sized defender in the comp

    You have totally contradicted yourself, Rivers is better with more upside with probably 20 others better than Bowey in the comp….but hopefully he’ll get there but be realistic, our friend.

    Bowey is nowhere near Quaynor at the moment. 
     

    IQ is good at defending, good at releasing players further up field, and good at setting up and getting on chain connections. Plus Quaynor’s physical pressure is vastly superior.

    Think he is talking about Isaac Quaynor being the best mid sized defender, not Jake.

    Marlion Pickett debut in the AFL grand final is for me considering his challenges in the past being in jail etc.

    Goodwin's 2 flags in his first 38 or so games is another one.

    Really admire Quaynor as a player. Quickly establishing himself as one of the best lock down small defenders in the game.

    His physical strength for such a young player is very impressive.

    Won some crucial contests in the grand finald and throughout the finals series.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
