Cant teach a Brown Dog new tricks

Congratulations again to the Brown Dog who tried his guts out yet again in his final game.

As noted by the commentators there was one passage in front of the MCC Members when he threw himself on the ball twice and prevented the Blues gettig clear possession.

Nathan couldnt tank if he tried!!

A great guy and terrific clubman & will be missed around the place. I am sure he has influenced our young guns by showing how to do your best!

Great way to go out. Was good to be able to send all 3 guys off from the G.

 

It was like he was touched by the hand of god when he kicked that goal.

It was classic to watch & to see his face after he kicked it, you could tell that's the way he wanted to go out.

Well done Doggie!

 

Should of heard him getting interviewed on SEN after the game. Was classic. Was making jokes and picking on Billy Brownless (interviewing) because the lid is off.

Said he went for Geelong as a boy and Dermie said, "well you can get back on the cats now browny" to which doggy replied "No way mate, im a demon through and through"

Also had a laugh about how he is gonna become a fireman.

Go Doggy!!!

Firedog...you star!!!

I don't think i will ever forget his reaction after he kicked that goal...PURE GOLD!!!


I think that is the single highlight of the year (along with Juice's towering mark) for me. He dashed forward earlier in the first quarter, frantically waving for the footy to be kicked to him, but I think it was Robbo didnt see him. As soon as he swooped on that half forward line, you knew it was his destiny to kick that goal. His celebrations showed what playing the game and representing the Dees meant to him, a true inspiration. Thanks for the memories, Brown Dog!

He is the sort of bloke that footy clubs love to have.

From his debut at Optus Oval wearing the 41 jumper with a blonde pony tail - his guts and irresponsibility for his body was evident and immediately became a favourite.

Unfortunatley he suffered numerous soft tissue injuries throughout his career.

Browny gave so much, his effort was second to none and also his passion for the red and blue over his time was on show each week.

I certainly gave a loud cheer when he made his first walk around the boundary and he nearly looked embarrassed at the crowd cheering because he was just a little back pocket!

When he kicks a goal, you know about it and when we were playing well, all players wanted to celebrate a goal and this was the passion we have been lacking!!

Good luck Brown Dog!!

 

Any chance he can un-retire. Had a fantastic second half of the year.

Spoke to a few demon fans after the game and we all reckon he can easily go around next year. Too much dead-wood could go before him.

    Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

    It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

    The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

    The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
