NON-MFC: Round 14



Recommended Posts

Richmond remind me of us.

Constant poor decisions.

Especially the looping handballs to stationary players.

An almost lazy and over confident style at times.

Just watching Chol, did we even ask the question. Seems to take marks, tackle and score goals everytime I watch a hawthorn game.

assume we didn’t show interest cos a certain someone hadn’t been suspended yet?

wouldn't have made a difference - hawks could absorb the huge salary and there was no way we could do so

don't forget he was still on big coin from the gc17 contract

most deals for the end of each year are sorted out 6-18 months prior, really, not during the actual trade week; it's why requests out of the blue like petty to the crom or lachie neale suddenly wanting to go back to flagmantle are less rather than more likely to come to fruition

imagine shushing the crowd in Dusty’s 300th

Especially after being gifted another ridiculous free kick

Easily the biggest [censored] in the league

I am referring to the Wizard by the way

Our recruiting needs to be questioned seeing Chol …yet we get Fullerton who hasn’t played a game after the Grundy disaster, throw in billings, Shache, Hunter & have a trifecta of has beens, that’s not topping up to win another flag , not sure what their strategy is/was, but it reflects the flip flop of Goodwin

This might be controversial around these parts but it might be time we stop letting Gawn be the final sign off on who we recruit.

Not sure if Gawn is responsible yeah the Grundy one was but I dare say the others are Lamb, Taylor & Goodwin

If we recruited Chol he would be on your list of failures. averages just over a goal a game. barely rucks and extremely inconsistent 

Were you ok with May, Lever, Langdon, Hibberd, Melksham?

Ffs give it a rest will you?! You’ve made your point oh so many times. This thread is cool because we get to chat while watching other sides play each other. You’re making it uncool with your repetitive slagging off on our team. If you must do that, please take it to a relevant thread. Please!

I respect your opinion but the thread is talking about other games and posters are discussing players etc and our recruiting.

Exactly! That’s what this thread is for. There’s so many other threads to discuss our Club. It would be awesome if we could keep this thread to NON-MFC as per the thread title. It’s not a big ask.

Now Sydney are playing. It would be great if we don’t have to keep hearing how dumb we are re JJ and Grundy. Not in this thread anyways.

    LIVE AND LET DIE by Meggs

    The Demons’ impressive late season charge to finals will most likely come unstuck this Saturday evening when the Bombers blow up the also-ran Blues in the Ikon Park double-header.   To mangle McCartney, what does it matter to ya? To have any chance to play next week Narrm has got a job to do and needs to do it well.  We’ve got to give the Pie sheilas hell, say live and let die! It’s Indigenous Round for this game and the chance to celebrate and engage with Aboriginal and Torres

    Had to shoulder more responsibility as the club’s injury concerns deepened but needs to step up more as he closes in on 100 games. Date of Birth: 31 May 2000 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 21 Career Total: 95 Goals MFC 2024: 6 Career Total: 34 Games CDFC: 1 Goals CDFL: 0

    2024 Player Reviews: #35 Harry Petty

    Failed to fulfill the promise of his breakout six goal effort against the Tigers in 2023 and was generally disappointing as a key forward. It remains to be seen whether Simon Goodwin will persevere with him in attack or return him to the backline where he was an important cog in the club’s 2021 premiership success.

    After a bright start to the season, playing mostly in defence, Howes seemed to lose his way in midseason but fought back with some good performances at Casey and finished the year back at AFL level. One to watch in 2024. Date of Birth: 7 March 2003 Height: 191cm Games MFC 2024: 15 Career Total:  15 Goals MFC 2024: 0 Career Total:  0 Games CDFC 2024: 6 Goals CDFC 2024: 0

    Originally an NBL basketballer with the Brisbane Bullets, he moved across town in 2019 to the AFL Lions where he played 19 games before crossing to Melbourne where he was expected to fill a role as a back up ruckman/key forward. Unfortunately, didn’t quite get there although he did finish equal sixth in Casey’s best and fairest award. Date of Birth: 23 February 1999 Height: 198cm Games CDFC: 14 Goals CDFL: 13

    Sadly, had to wrap up a great career in midstream on the back of multiple concussions which culminated in the Maynard hit in the 2023 Qualifying Final. His loss to the club was inestimable over and above his on field talent given his character and leadership qualities, all of which have been sorely missed.

    2024 Player Reviews: #40 Taj Woewodin

    The son of former Demon Brownlow Medalist Shane, Taj added a further 16 games to his overall tally of games but a number were as substitute. He is slowly fitting into the team structure but without doing anything spectacular and needs to take further steps forward in 2025 for his career to progress.

    The clever small was unable to cement a place in the Melbourne midfield and spent most of his time this year with the Casey Demons where he finished equal fourth in its best & fairest.

    Bowey’s season was curtailed early when he sustained a shoulder injury that required surgery in the opening game against Sydney. As a consequence, he was never able to perform consistently or at anywhere near his previous levels.  Date of Birth: 12 September 2002 Height: 175cm Games MFC 2024: 14 Career Total: 61 Goals MFC 2024: 0 Career Total: 6
