Well in all the talk this week of some West Coast player...I think its Morton, or Judd or something. Look who ever he is people seem to think he is an ok player. But somehow everyone seems to have missed what is no doubt the biggest acquisition in football history. His name is John Meesen!

In his three years at the crows his stats are amazing. Let’s all take a look back...

In round 21 he set Football Park alight with what was touted as the best first game of the century. With an unprecedented 4 kicks 2 handballs and 2 of the best marks you will see, Meesen was a firm favourite for the Brownlow. Many say they heard Leigh Mathews scream "Jesus that the best kid I've ever seen...makes Vossy look like a 6 year old girl." The question was...would this goliath be able to do it again?

Well the simple answer is yes! In his next week with a 1 kick 1 handball 3 hitout match against the Bulldogs he became the premier ruckman of the comp. He set up the victory with what some people called, "Magic like abilities." Many say they saw shades of Polly Farmer…most say they saw so much better.

It was then found out that this man could not only play but could draw as well. People around the Facebook community simply couldn’t believe their eyes at Meesen’s stunning drawings of Penis’s with arms. Worthy of Da Vinci praise this boy has many talents

And now my good Demon friends...THE CROW HAS LANDED! Does this mean a premiership this year...Yes! Does it mean another 5 after that...Yes! So lets all sing the song. It’s a grand old flag....

    I seem to remember Colin Sylvia getting 1 handball in his first match.

    Why thank you Magic. In all the madness of Trade week and good old TJ leaving it was time we had some fun! If I took the cake then I'll wear that with pride.

    I say spot on!

    In five years, we will be saying things like "Wow, Judd's best years really were behind him", and "who'd have thought at the time that Meesen was the biggest name traded in the 2007 period", and probably "Two flags, four All Australians and a Brownlow - is John Meesen the best player of his generation?"

    It sure was light on.

    Crying over Judd still, and TJ, awww.

    They've moved on, we should to.

    If the jumper isn't enough to barrack for, then what about the blokes wearing 2, 5, 6, 8, 9, 13, 14, 15, 18, 19, 21, 22, 23, 24, 27, 29, 32, 34, 36, 45.

    Exciting numbers those.

    Yep, I remember that game.

    He jogged on across open space to join the game on the wing, where the ball came within twenty seconds of him arriving.

    He was caught flat-footed and was second to the contest.

    Then made up for it by laying a crunching tackle and reclaiming the ball.

    which, under pressure, he handpassed to nowhere in particular, for it to be scooped up by on opponent.

    Not long after he was benched and I'm honestly not sure he got more than 20 mins game time.

    So he didn't have a great first game, but it's also another one of those stories we can think back on how Daniher kept giving young guys only half a chance, and reassure ourselves that the club maed the right decision.

    Getting back to the original thread here, can we not pretend the club was placing any more importance on this deal than they did? An interesting ruck prospect with great endurance and not at bottom age, for pick 37. A good trade, a useful piece of list-balancing, and cheap as chips.

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?
