Well done mate

My guess is we will win for Whitey this weekend (yes its a big call)

250 games is a wonderful effort, it's just a pity that this season has been so shiite that most of the enthusiasm for th eclub has evaporated.

Well done Whitey

Well all things aside, it is a marvellous achievement for any player. In that light kudos where warranted. Congratulations Jeff.

Shouldn't we keep him for 2 more years so he can get his 300th also? Wouldn't be worth much in trade. I'm joking, don't turn this into a who should/shouldn't we trade topic

I think we have lost a few 150th's along the way as well :rolleyes: !!!

Anyway congratulations to Jeff on what is a magnificent achievement.

His contribution to our team over so many years is greatly appreciated and I hope that he can celebrate with some style.......

But I am not holding my breath ;) :D !!!

Congratulations to a consistent performer who has carried the team's ruck duties mainly on his own for years, and has done so professionally and admirably (and through significant injury).

Big two weeks coming up, with Whitey's 250th and Neita the following week.

Of course we care about White's 250th!

Congratulations Jeff :)

He cops it pretty badly on this site, even in his own milestone-game thread <_< , but he has and continues to be one of my all-time favourite players.

How unfortunate for so many milestone games to have fallen in such a shocking year.

If we can't win for Neitz.. I will get down onto the ground and spank every player out there.

Jeff has always been one of my favourite MFC players. He has carried our ruck division for many years as well as battling his painful shin problem and the horrific facial injury of 2005. The winning goal against the Bulldogs in 2005 to get us into the finals- a great memory!

Despite our 'season from hell' he is still second on hitouts and I think ranks number one for ruckman in Champion Data stats

Congratulations Jeff! I'll be there to cheer you on this weekend.

What a great achievement!

Well done Jeff, you have been a star for the MFC over the years, and long may that continue.....hopefully to 300 games!

Have a great game, and great night!

Spot on Jaded, has done it tough without support, Deserves congrats on his 250th.

He's been the best rade i've ever seen in my time at Melbourne, and has been probably the most consistant player in the last decade. Always a top ruckman despite the new rules effectively screwing him.

Congrats, and hopefully you can sink the bullys like you did in 05!

Well done Jeff!

Has been very unfairly criticised over the last couple of years. While the new ruck circle has curtailed his ability to win the centre hitouts, he has adapted as well as possible and has maintained his good form around the ground. He has had the second most hitouts in the competition this year and gets as many possessions as any other ruckman in the competition. He is still the most important player in our team and will probably be a player who will only truly get the credit he deserves after he retires... has been the best ruckman of the last decade!

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    TRAINING: Thursday 9th January 2025

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to
