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

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
