I went down to Casey fields with my son today for the junior members clinic. What a great day out!

The players give so much time to the kids they absolutely loved it. There where hundreds of mini red and blue fans there and everyone got autographs so proud of the club for putting these on, it means a lot to all of us.

Thanks Dees

    Agreed!
    Was a great day and the way they handled and engaged about one thousand excited kids was exceptional.

    Well done club and players.

    This sounded awesome! My son is a junior member through my MCC/MFC premium membership and I hadn't heard [censored]ut this. Was it advertised? I might need to give the club a call and enquire why we didn't receive any emails about it.

    We just received an email a few weeks ago. Just good ol' GA family members sitting with the people at the people's ground.

    Alright this is a bit much now.  We just had a phone call from Steven May wanting to speak to my junior membership son and thank him.

    "Hi is ... there? it's Steven May".

    What a bloody legend! When I was his age I was the only kid wearing a Dees jumper at a country footy clinic with my hero's number on the back (who won't be named) and the #%&*# gave me nothing. 

    Should have kept it for the boy though he loves Salo.

    I went to the same school as a well known dees player. Year above me.

    Pillock who was the very definition of a self absorbed alfa jock who when he became a dees player contradicted de la soul.

    My daughter just got a call from Trent Rivers.

    Was so star struck she forgot what number he was when he asked and couldn’t remember what games she’d been to this year. 
    Lovely bloke on the phone and one very happy young girl.

    I would have loved to have to gone to school with Wattsy!

    We would have been mates i'm sure. 

    Good bloke. Would have enjoyed partying with him.

    Sadly he 20 plus years younger than me!

    • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.
