    Maybe Layzie but not in my head, I’m looking for improvements, something to look forward to, I won’t sign off until the B& F and National Draft is completed. Then I will take a long break until the pre-season.

    You're a great inspiration for us all DeeZone. Could definitely learn a thing or two from you 🙂

    Oftentimes DeeZone is the only reason I bother with this site. I dearly wish there were more DeeZone-ish folks on here.

    I’m doing my level best to this end. My brother and his two sons* are sitting in the cheer squad tomorrow and I’ve told them they may not necessarily be near me since we’ll likely have to spread people out. A sparse cheer squad bay is not a good look.

    I had no idea Jai was 194cms! Taller than Aidan Johnson and TMac!

    Has a real presence and has some fantastic attributes. Could float forward and clunky a mark.

    Tmac is 195 ..

    Culley is a handy size. A few more games won't hurt him.. or us.

    Good debut in red and blue.

    Great to see him given a chance

    Liked his marking.

    Needs work on kicking but he has good attributes

    Biggest knock is his pace. He was caught a few times with Eagles getting away from him on the run.

    You are joking right? Go watch his two entry kicks inside 50 to the proper ‘hotspot’ that resulted in goals. A welcome point of difference from the bomb kick

    Culley had some presence out on field today. He was in defence, the middle and forward. Not bad for a man who was not on an AFL list until very late and playing in a much poorer league leading up to today

    Very impressive start for us. Plays taller than he looks and as mentioned above his smarts in kicking to the hot spot was an example many of his colleagues should follow.

    No, it’s kicking to players leading to 20m out, showing composure, and not bomb kicking it to the goal line where it’s easily defended and a point is conceded. Football 101. Something that a couple of higher paid mids have been doing for three years.

    Not quite Adonski it is an accurate kick that comes in a lot faster and prevents extra backs intercepting, IE a lot of our long bombs are like pie floaters coming in and easy to kill.

    Also, he pulled his kicks on 45 degree angles, late, which is an art form that only few of our players master..’Melksham and Chin being a couple notable others. It’s clever and hard to defend. Lift the veil of negativity

    pleasantly surprised, but he sits within the plodder with below average foot skills category for me. so him langdon viney clarry langford sparrow may work against west coast but against most sides that wont cut it.

    delivery inside 50 is still a continual unsticking point for the red and blue, having said that Jai did about as much as he could today given the opposition, real test is the next 3 weeks, sink or swim

    Really happy for him. It could only have been better if it was at the 'G.

    You don't play the Eagles every week, but there was definitely some good signs (and size) about him.

    • Thank You Simon Goodwin

      As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

    • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

    • REPORT: West Coast

      The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

      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.
