I was there and spoke to him. Hand is still swollen but he was in good spirits. I won’t repeat what he said about a certain journalist as it won’t get past the censors. He’s not going anywhere. G

Ok... got back home at 2am. Found it slightly weird the Bluey Truscott himself, just got awarded his life membership in 2024. Overall, it was an interesting night. Although Goodwin (whom I rate)

I’m surprised by this result if I’m being honest. But what do I know? I’ve been drunk since round 24 trying to cope with being a Melbourne supporter

Incredible that it's easy to think back to Jack Viney and his foot issues, and him nearly having to give up the game. He could barely run at times. I'm certain retirement was mentioned.

To come back and play at the level he has for the past few years, and to win another B&F is an outstanding reflection on his character and work effort.

You have to play every game to win it unfortunately for Max.  Clearly our best player all year but congratulations to Viney. Not his best season but our coaches obviously rated it. Never doubt his effort or commitment.

Riv? May??
Surely Rivers was 6th … thought he’d be top 5 but probably just missed. 

When Max got announced 2nd I thought Rivers was the only option. But then again we're just morons from the entitled Xbox generation

I apologise if I’ve touched a nerve. It is your choice to support mediocrity.

I will continue to demand higher standards.

Max Gawn.  Tonight shows our spirit.  As a footy club, we are united. The lads. Ed. Milkshake. Gus. Nibbler. 
The Ring. Premiership ring.  It means so much.  Ring reminds us that we had some miserable years but developed.  The hurt is something to build on.

JV7. unite next year. Coaches. Players. Fans. Galvanize ourselves. Not win or losses. Not about premierships. Just be proud of ourselves. Start to feel hungry to next year.  We feel embarrassed.  Like after 2019. Deflected the Todd calling him to see about the Kangas.  He’s a great young man.

Very surprising. 

Not really, format dishes out a lot of votes they have to go somewhere 

Played every game, in the guts, finished off season without a lot of help at times. GC game was immense

Max was great, but missed a couple of games, and was doubled teamed a few times

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
