He is mates with Simmons… wonder if the grand standing is rubbing off on him. 

Benny is a washed out player now and was all his fault. Not a great role model to follow.

100%! One of the biggest waste of talent you will ever see.

And the reason is because it’s all about Ben

Some press have been commenting on Viney's comments after the match, but have left out the "nah", instead focusing on the "we'll see how it pans out". Thoughts? 

Pathetic   These so called journos are not real journalists

Nah as in 'No' to the question about him leaving?

More BS by the media, he clearly said Nah about leaving.

Have they equally shown a smither of interest on how the club came together? I think not. Says enough for me.

I read that his real reason is him wanting to go to a bigger club to increase his profile for life after footy. Not sure how true that is, but makes sense. He is heavily into self promotion. Warming to the idea of him going as long as we get a bunch of high draft picks. 

I bumped into Tracc a few years ago in Noosa of all places.  It was a very odd interaction and "heavily into self" has been my opinion of him since then.  He is a gun of a player, but he is not my favourite player.  Humility is gold.

The team photo was a “F You” to Trac? Just when I thought this thread couldn’t get anymore cooked… congrats, this is an all new level of speculation.

This thread is like a combined 5g flat earth convention.

Let's just beat Collingwood next Friday, recruit well and get our squad fit for 2025.

Odd as in he wasn't humble or down to earth?

There was nothing humble or down to earth about him.  

I have removed the last sentence in my post.  Perhaps  I caught Tracc on a bad day.  That is enough for people to know.

That's not very good. 

I used to work in disability and was at the airport with some clients I was accompanying on a holiday. The Richmond team (who had won the premiership the previous year) was at the airport. One of our clients was a massive Tiger fan and Damian Hardwick and some other players were amazing - they had a photo taken with her and were super lovely. That's when you learn about a person's character - when they are lovely when the cameras are off.

Personally I don’t think we should hang our superstar player out to dry quite yet…..everyone’s personality is different after all might be taking him a while to even get his head around footy again

That's nice. 

As much as I'm annoyed at Tracc/his management for leaking to the media, I really hope that fans aren't giving him a hard time on social media. It's one thing to air grievances on a forum, but another to bother someone online.

I haven’t seen anyone say anything except “please stay” or “please come to x club because that’s who I barrack for and I’m a loser” 😂

On this, even the hardest of Demons hearts would’ve melted at what happened yesterday. Honestly, it was staggering. There was this unmistakable sense of unity and trust. Everyone came together and the vibe was one of mateship and ‘I’ve got your back, always.’ Too many little examples to list. And this was BEFORE the match. I really can’t explain in words the overwhelming feeling after the match. Some of us were crying, not me, I’d never cry over footy, (insert suss monkey puppet gif) but not so much in sadness or happiness, it was all about healing, that’s the only way to describe it.

Anyways, after the match most people had left the ground including the folks in the back of our bay. On the opposite side of the ground our players were standing in a circle for quite a while and you just knew Max would’ve been saying some pretty emotional things. The few of us still there didn’t start packing up like we usually do, instead we continued waving flags and chanting. The circle broke up eventually and the boys headed our way. Again, hard to explain the sight of them, absolutely knackered but there was nowhere else they’d rather be. I saw that Nibs had tears in his eyes.

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return. He has re-signed on to the Demons for 1 more season in 2025. Date of Birth: 12 August 1991 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 229 Goals MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 188

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.

    2024 Player Reviews: #42 Daniel Turner

    The move of “Disco” to a key forward post looks like bearing fruit. Turner has good hands, moves well and appears to be learning the forward craft well. Will be an interesting watch in 2025.

    The Demon’s key defender and backline leader had his share of injuries and niggles throughout the season which prevented him from performing at his peak.  Date of Birth: 5 March 1996 Height: 195cm Games MFC 2024: 18 Career Total: 178 Goals MFC 2024: 1 Career Total: 5

    2024 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver

    Lack of preparation after a problematic preseason prevented Oliver from reaching the high standards set before last year’s hamstring woes. He carried injury right through the back half of the season and was controversially involved in a potential move during the trade period that was ultimately shut down by the club.

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    2024 Player Reviews: #5 Christian Petracca

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury. Date of Birth: 4 J
